Abstract :

At the present research we have studied the manner and degree of sprawl andcentralization as related to the globalization in Tehran Metropolis. We have alsostudied and compared the circumstances of the sprawl and connection with thepopulation mass and the city center. According to our studies there is an inverserelation between the mass of population and localization of the globalizationapplications. These phenomena tend to the localization outside of the business centerof the city. In relation to the centralization of the applications or their localconnectivity it may be mentioned that most of these applications tend towardconvergence (centralization) and the whole applications related to the globalizationhave a convergence and centralization attitude toward each other and the highdistribution coefficient confirms this factor.
