  During the last two decades, the importance of information andcommunication technology (ICT) in increasing countries theeconomic growth and productivity in different countries  form of inter-country data has been more considered. Most of these studies have considered the positive impact  of ICT on   economic growth and productivity.Hence, regarding the multiple economic functions  ofICT, the goal of this paper is to study ( the Uhansson-Usilius convergence growth  test ),  using Panal Data method while illustrating in the long-run production in Mena's Countries during 2000-2009 concerning the role of ICT; and also the long term relation between production and communication in Iran using data gathered during 1347-1386. Moreover, through Granger causality test, the existence of causality between ICT and production in mentioned countries and also Iran have been investigated. The results of estimated model in Mena's countries show that all estimated coefficients have the considered signs and are statisticallysignificant. In sample Mena's countries, the production elasticity of ICT, capital, labor and human capital have been respectively estimated approximately 0.0559, 0.2747, 0.467, 0.153. Also, in (R2) there is a one way causality from ICT to production at the significant level of s per cent. The results of estimated model of Iran also show that the related coefficients related to the expendituers of ICT capacity, capital, labor and human capital in long term are respectively 0.07689, 0.4045, 0.1646, 0.14288 and similar to Mena's countries there is a one way causality from ICT to production Manuscript profile

  The aim of this paper is to analyse the influentioal factors on economic growth in MENA coutries during 1991-2001. The differences between economic growth in these countries has originated from existing institutions performance, doing business condition, production factors, the level of technology and competition between government and private agencies in economic activities. Based on a panel data teqniquic on some selected countries we have estimated the labor and capital coefficient effects on their production value. The findings show that capital accumulation have positive effects on economic growth rate in Iran, Emarat, Jordon, kuweit, Moroco, Oman, Qatar, Surya and Turkey. These coefficients in Bahrin, Lybia, Saudi Arabia, and Tunesia are lower than former groups. In addition, human factors have more participants in growth in Iran, Turkey, Jordon, Kuweit, Saudi Arabia, Tunesia and Bahrin to others selected Counttries. Manuscript profile
