Supporting Acrobat Connect Server formally for next terms
I suggest supporting Acrobat Connect Server formally in BIHE TS to make sure this great tool is up and running like lablms.org.
We also need to have regular backup of priceless recorded lectures.
I estimated that we can support all educational programs with only 120 to 150 Acrobat Connect presenter users to save money.
Note to the draft estimation text as following:
1-A BSC program (that is the longest one) takes about 5 years then in every term than there are utmost 5 groups of active students in a education program.
2-As no class session conflict will be happened regularly for the group mates teachers how support the group than one presenter user name is proper for teachers (It likes a real classroom) than we only need 5 presenter user name (like 5 real classes) for one education program utmost.
So in the formal start in BIHE 40 presenter user can fully support 8 BSC education program if all course presenters like to start using this powerful tool but we are sure that courses like EFLn, DSn and,... does not need it.

Helping online students via mobile tools
I bought a nokia E62 and MTN's GPRS service for idea. It is not easy to do this for the low speed and several disconnects in an hours but it works for Lablms forums and email; I suggest you to test it yourself. :-)
It is helping me. What about you?

Peparing updated, qualified and matured courses content
Dear BIHE Faculty Members
We can use good LMS tools on demand as the moodle is open-source but in my opinion our majeure issue in BIHE is about preparing updated, qualified and matured courses content.
You know, most of good books have a good support of question banks, SCORM modules and so on but we could not buying this read to use contents for the huge administrative paper works and odd money saving policies.
The time is gold and we need to save the time as much as we can but how we can save the time about preparing learning content and keep honest about international copy right and keep the quality of course contents?Thank you for your kind attention, Farhan

Here are projects that I can supervise in SEG at BIHE University.
Here are projects that I can supervise in SEG at BIHE University. Note that I can only support only 2 students.
My suggestion for computer engineering BSC student’s as final project in spring 2008:
1. Open Source Information library using Java or .NET or PHP.
Information library systems support cataloging in archive centers.
It should support Bibliography and Authority records base on a subset of MARC/UNIMARC specifications. For MARC details see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MARC_standards
2. Multi database transaction management using tow open source or commercial (e.g. Oracle Portal or JBoss Portal) enterprise portal.
Today enterprise information portals are needed in our country, Iran but there are a few technical experiences about it. For enterprise information portal details see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterprise_portal
3. Web base Parking management system
Parking management system is necessary in Tehran and big city buildings, universities and organizations. You can find more about parking categories on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking
You can find more about An Intelligent Car Park Management System on http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/login.jsp?url=/iel5/4079021/4079022/04079069.pdf?tp=&isnumber=&arnumber=4079069
3. Web base Shelf management system
Shelf management system is very use for house, clubs, universities and organizations. You may use it as personal assistant for placing books, tools, CD or you my use it at work to log place of furniture and documents and the like. Then you can guide others to find things from outdoor.
4. Multi database transaction management using SSIS on SQL 2005.
Today distributed MIS are needed in our country, Iran but there are a few technical experiences about it. For SSIS details see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_Server_Integration_Services
5. Multi database transaction management using .NET CLR on SQL 2005.
Today distributed MIS are needed in our country, Iran but there are a few technical experiences about it. For CLR and .NET details see

We have some problems in BIHE about classes scheduling. Read this article and let me to know your idea about find a good solution for it please.
1-There were some classes and labs as following (Table 1) in last terms:
2-There were some classes that take 2 hours, unlike other classes that take 3 hours.
3-To make a better class scheduling following new timing template is going to follow in next term:
In my opinion the new timing template has a hidden pitfall although it looks good at first!
We can say that the timing template will waste 2 to 3 hours for each class every day; You know there is more than 12 classes and 2 computer sites in the building, so BIHE will lost 2*(12+2) to 3*(12+2) hours every day; then BIHE will lost 7*28 to 7*42 hours every week. I do not believe that we are going to force BIHE to lost about 196 to 294 hours every week during 16 weeks in next term to follow the new timing template, do you?
Many thanks
