Transportation and moving is one of the main aspects of urban life, and organizing transportation is one of the primary needs of any healthy and good city. The existence of traffic problems in the central border of the cities is an issue that unfortunately is not given due attention by the city management, while the traffic problem causes irreparable damage to the economy of the city and the country. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to achieve a strategic model of traffic reduction in the central roads of Yazd city by using the analysis of implementation models of successful countries. The current research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of nature and method. In order to analyse the data and to adopt the strategic model necessary to reduce the traffic of the central roads of Yazd city, the Swot model has been used. The results of this research show that the total weighted score of internal factors is 1/93, which is less than the average of 2/5. As a result, it can be said that the weak points in the area of traffic reduction in the central roads of Yazd city are superior to its strong points. Also, the total weighted score of external factors is 1/6, which is less than the average of 2/5. It can be said that the threats in the field of reducing the traffic of the central roads of Yazd city are superior to its opportunities. And according to the internal and external factors of the central roads of Yazd city as well as the implementation models of successful countries, defensive strategies should be prioritized to reduce the traffic of the central roads of Yazd city.

Every country prefers to be a producer and exporter in any industry rather than being a pure importer. Actually, it is not about preference, it is about social and economical necessity to cultural industries. The mobile gaming industry as one of the entertainment industries has grown economically as well as in popularity all over the world in the last ten years. It is economically and socially necessary for Iranian mobile gaming companies to enter the global market as well. For this aim at first, we need to identify and analyze its current state. In order to archive this goal 14 experts including policy makers, researchers, mobile gaming activists, managers and media managers were being interviewed in this qualitative content analysis research. After three coding steps, 21 themes about status of Iran gaming industry were extracted from 450 raw codes and analyzed by Swot technique. As a conclusion, four fields of strengths (such as high capacity of internal market, low costs of production and learning, …, ), weaknesses (including human resource management, science management, investment, …, ), opportunities (such as being more powerful than the other local competitors, strong cultural relationships with other local countries, …, ) and threats (including hard competition in the global market, sanctions set against Iran economy, …, ) identified and analyzed by Swot matrix. The government should take on the role of policy maker in the game industry and lead it to international markets in order to get rid of the single-product economy, in partnership with the private sector.

As reports of the first national study reveal, Iranian salt intake reaches 9. 52 g/day (two times more than recommended by World Health Organization). Meanwhile ignoring the consequences of high salt intake has led to an increased rate of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), stroke, stomach cancer, osteoporosis, obesity, etc., To tackle these threatening issues, a nationwide intervention campaign could be an effective solution based on global experiences. A review of previous work in Iran shows that despite numerous efforts conducted in the prevention of CVDs, they were not well reflected in worldwide sources. Furthermore, a comprehensive campaign was not implemented particularly concerning the salt reduction in Iran. As a result, we first reviewed the major successful initiatives conducted in reducing salt intake around the world and Iran. Then we introduced the components of a comprehensive social marketing campaign along with customized actions related to Iranian nutrition habits, their attitude, and behavior toward salt consumption. These employed components were Swot analysis, identifying target group, determining communication goals and objectives based on models and theories, planning executive plan, designing communication messages and materials, media planning and promotional actions, and determining campaign budget plus monitoring and evaluation.

Endometriosis diagnosis via laparoscopy remains challenging due to subtle lesion appearances and inter-observer variability. While artificial intelligence shows promise for surgical video analysis, the potential of Vision Transformers (ViTs) specifically for endometriosis detection remains unexplored. This study applied a Swot framework to evaluate ViTs for automated endometriosis diagnosis in laparoscopic videos. Analysis of 10 studies from PubMed, IEEE Xplore, and Scopus identified key findings: Strengths included (1) global attention for lesion detection, (2) outperforming CNNs/RNNs in surgical tasks (91-97% accuracy), and (3) multimodal data integration. Weaknesses were (1) dependence on unavailable annotated datasets, (2) high computational needs, (3) limited local feature sensitivity, and (4) annotation variability issues. Opportunities involved (1) self-supervised learning from unlabeled videos and (2) explainable attention maps. Threats comprised (1) performance variability across surgical settings, (2) lacking regulatory standards, and (3) data privacy concerns. Crucially, no studies directly tested ViTs for endometriosis diagnosis despite their potential. For clinical implementation, three requirements emerged: (1) collaborative dataset creation, (2) optimized hybrid architectures, and (3) ethical guidelines for surgical AI. This structured analysis provides a roadmap for developing ViT-based diagnostic tools while addressing current limitations in data, technology, and clinical integration.

This investigation examined online teaching in Iranian high schools and institutes during the COVID-19 pandemic utilizing the Swot analysis and examining the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. In line with the study's goals, a sequential mixed approaches design was used. An open-ended questionnaire (Hassaskhah, 2016) was used to collect the necessary data in the first stage, and a semi-structured interview was used for data triangulation in the second stage. The study included both quantitative and qualitative phases. The participants of the study consisted of 25 Iranian EFL teachers teaching in high schools and language institutes selected purposefully, 25 students studying English in language institutes and high schools in different cities of Fars Province, and 10 staff members, including the manager and the managing directors of the high schools and institutes. The results showed Iranian EFL teachers perceived the opportunities of online learning for their education as a significant advantage for online learning. On the other hand, Iranian EFL students emphasized the limitations of online learning in their educational journey. However, the findings indicated that the staff took into account the potential threats associated with online learning in education. The findings revealed key factors such as the opportunities and threats of online teaching in high schools and institutes. Based on the results, it is argued that the COVID-19 pandemic revealed that our educational system is not strong enough, and it needs to adapt itself to new conditions and consider the pandemic as an opportunity.

As Farhangian Universities play a crucial role in educating soon-to-be teachers, the program being developed for students of this university needs to be meticulously developed in order to fulfill the crucial role of teacher training centers. Researchers of this phenomenological study tried to evaluate curriculum specified for TEFL students in Farhangian Universities by the implementation of Swot analysis. Seven professors of Farhangian University in Mazandaran participated in this study to speak for their perspectives regarding the curriculum’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. They took part in interview conducted by researchers and their comments were transcribed to be segmented and codified in later sections. The findings of this study clearly demonstrated that this program suffers more from weaknesses and there are opportunities which might act as compensation for weaknesses and threats. The significant weakness of this curriculum that was elaborated by participants was misplacement of courses without any observation of necessary content knowledge and pre-requisites. Specification of courses exclusively for teaching was mentioned as one of the important strengths of this university. Participants believed that the first opportunity to be made use of, is to maintain connection with other teacher training centers in Iran and around the world.
