The book "The Fundamentals and Empirical Design of a Smart Fire Detection System"

The book entitled "The Fundamentals and Empirical Design of a Smart Fire Detection System" was published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing in November 2020. This book introduces a smart fire detection system designed using a wireless sensor network and fuzzy methods. This system predicts, controls, and provides alerts to various events based on intelligent techniques. Routing protocols are performed based on intelligent procedures in which they are classified into two main groups: static and dynamic. Static protocols are used to transmit data packets between stationary nodes, while dynamic protocols are applied to transmit messages between rescue teams and fire departments. The active and passive states are specified for sensor nodes to balance the remaining energy of the nodes and prolong the network lifetime. The probability of explosion, fire, burn, and suffocation is determined based on fuzzy procedures. People affected can be guided to the exit at event places based on an intelligent method. In addition, members and dispatch routes of rescue and support teams are selected using intelligent methods to reduce financial losses and human casualties. The book will be useful for professors, researchers, and engineers in computer and electrical engineering.

The paper "Waterative Model: an Integration of the Waterfall and Iterative Software Development Paradigms"

The paper entitled "Waterative Model: an Integration of the Waterfall and Iterative Software Development Paradigms" was published by Database Systems Journal on August 21, 2019. It proposes a new software development methodology, called waterative model, which applies an integration of the waterfall and iterative development paradigms. In this model, the iterative model is embedded into the waterfall model to use the advantages of both models as an integrated one. It, in the most cases, is appropriate for large software products that need a long-term period of time for the development process.

Personal Accountant (L1)

Personal Accountant (L1) is a first-level accounting app that stores financial transactions of the money resources. It is simple and easy to use, which is proper for all people including adults, specialists, children, etc. This app calculates the balance of each resource according to financial transactions. The money resources are categorized into three groups: Wallet, Safe and Bank. Each resource has an initial balance to determine financial balance of the resource in the first time. Incomes are added to these resources as well as expenses are subtracted from them. Budget is calculated by using sum of initial balances, sum of incomes, and sum of expenses. Moreover, financial balances of all the resources are determined separately.

Personal Accountant (L1) ver 1.0 [build 1 update 0] was released on September 13, 2017. Main features of the original version are as the below:

•    To store all transactions of the incomes

•    To hold detailed information of the expenses

•    To report transactions and financial summary of the wallet, safe, and bank

•    To illustrate a comparative chart of the monthly income and expense

•    Financial summary of the whole system
