Iran’s petroleum industry has been one of the main targets of the sanctions. The same sector also was the pioneer and made the greatest gains after the easing of international restrictions. One of the key variables that influenced and paved the way for either imposition or removal of the sanctions was the role of International mass media. As a matter of fact, the media streams did play a key role in the success of the sanctions during imposed sanctions. In the post-sanctions setting, the same media did set the ground for implementation of the articles of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) especially with regard to the oil sanctions on Iran. The present article considers the role of three leading international media outlets, namely Thomson Reuters, Bloomberg and Financial Times, regarding the sanctions on Iran’s oil industry in two settings: Prior to the JCPOA implementation and after it. For the purposes of the study, all the news releases of these agencies regarding Iran’s oil industry and sanctions from the beginning of 2012 through the first quarter of 2016 were meticulously studied.The result of the studies indicated that Reuters and Bloomberg did in fact change their standing with regard to Iran’s oil industry and the sanctions before and after the JCPOA implementation. The results showed that the two media outlets changed their attitudes for coverage of the related news from negative to more positive and more supportive attitudes through the two settings. However, the Financial Times, based on the content it has published during the two periods, did not change its attitude towards Iran’s oil industry and the sanctions, and maintained its nonchalant, unmoved, and skeptical stance towards the issue throughout the two settings.

One of the most important factors for the economic development of countries is the insurance industry.A closer look at the economies of Developed Countries shows that the insurance industry has a significant contribution in the economic development of these countries. The insurance industry needs to accept the risk in order to carry out any insurance activity. In the other word, the insurance companies create tranquillity in the society by accepting the risk. On the other hand, the insurance companies need to access to the powerful risk analysis tools in order to manage the potential risks. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is one of the most important techniques to identify the risk resources. Hence, data envelopment analysis is widely used in the insurance industry. This study uses the dataset of the car insurance policies of Saman Insurance Company during the years 2018-2019. First, we identify the effective indicators and examine the properties of these indicators to classify them into input and output groups. Finally, we use data envelopment analysis to propose a model for predictionthe risk of insurers (in terms of existence of damage risk or absence of damage risk). This model can be used in the future policies of the insurance company. For example, the insurance companies can use the results of data envelopment analysis to adjust the premiums received from different insurers and increase the satisfaction for insurers and their profitability by creating a rating system based on the insurers 'risk.

In the present research, an optimization process was performed in Signoff unit of Saipa Corporation based on the discrete event simulation using a multiple objective function. The required information, including the operation classes (product inspection, adjustment, and reworking), the flow between different workstations, operation times, production cost identification, etc., were extracted from the actual data recorded for March 2018- March 2019 period. For the purpose of simulation, firstly, the model was built using the Arena software and all effective parameters and variables were introduced into the model following the planning of various scenarios. Upon a predetermined number of iterations, the bottleneck was identified and the model was verified. Next, in a primary phase, the OptQuest software was utilized to find the optimal number of workers for minimizing the production costs after 378 iterations (upon satisfaction of an automatic stop criterion), and the result was used as input for a secondary phase where the model was optimized for enhancing the operational capacity of the logistic units upon 303 iterations. Using the results of this research, it was anticipated to achieve 21.6% drop in the number of Operator along with 10% increase in the logistic capacity, 4% reduction in the production costs, and 2% increase in the production rate.

This paper is exploring the determinants of Intra-Industry Trade (IIT) between Iran and Southwest Asian countries. Within the framework of Gravity Model, we use Grubel & Lioyd index to measure the volume of IIT for Chemical products from 1992 to 2005. Based on theoretical studies, Country and Industry-Specific factors collectively determine the composition of Intra-Industry Trade among trade partners. Empirical studies however show that in developing countries, National fundamentals are more significant in the explanation for the pattern of IIT. Such elements are GDP, Demographic variable, Geographic Distance, Linder Variable, Economic Convergence, and Exchange rate. Our research confirmed that, GDP, Economic convergence, and the Linder Variable have positive effect on Intra-Industry Trade between Iran and its trading partners in Southwest Asia, whereas Exchange rate and Distance inversely influence IIT.

Introduction: The health system has one of the most complex supply chains in the world to deal with human health and well-being. The pharmaceutical supply chain is part of this system. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to develop a model to evaluate supply chain sustainability in this industry. Methods: First, by reviewing previous studies, indicators related to supply chain sustainability in economic, social, environmental and governance dimensions were extracted. Then, using a survey method to implement the model designed in ANFIS, a questionnaire was used to evaluate the sustainability factors in the case study. Results: The designed ANFISs with 50 training courses achieved acceptable error rates. In the economic and social dimension, the trend of sustainability changes was initially decreasing and then increasing. In the environmental dimension where negative indicators were considered, the trend is quite decreasing. In the governance dimension, the trend of incremental stability changes is. In the present study, the root mean square error (RMSE) is considered as a criterion for model validation. Conclusion: To improve the condition, sustainability must first be evaluated and measured so that the results can be quantified after the improvement measures. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that the model designed in ANFIS is a good tool for assessing sustainability. Manuscript profile

Introduction: The extensive advantages of the 4th generation of industry led to the entry of these technologies into the healthcare sector. Many countries have been able to create many competitive advantages by successfully implementing Healthcare 4.0. In Iran, the fourth generation of health care has not yet been properly investigated and implemented. Identifying implementation barriers and relationships between them can help decision makers in making appropriate decisions to facilitate Healthcare 4.0 implementing. This research was done with the aim of identifying these barriers and analyzing and relationship between them. Methods: This research was done in 2 stages. In the first stage, using semi-structured interviews with experts and the use of thematic analysis, barriers were identified, and in the second stage, using a researcher-made questionnaire and the method of fuzzy total interpretative structural modeling, a causal model of relationships between barriers was designed to identify the most fundamental barriers. The method of sampling in both stages was judgment and snowball and the sample size in them is 16 and 10 people, respectively. Results: The results of interviews with experts led to the identification of 44 main barriers, which are divided into 7 categories: " barriers due to sanctions", "Financial and economic barriers", "Hardware and software barriers", "Cooperation barriers", "competitive barriers", "management barriers" and "human resource barriers" were categorized. The modeling results showed that "barriers caused by sanctions", "competitive barriers" and "human resource barriers" are respectively the most important barriers and should be given special attention in policy making. Conclusion: The results of the research presented a new perspective on the barriers to healthcare 4.0. This perspective is about barriers related to sanctions and competitive issues. As a result, it is recommended to facilitate international communication, train decision-making and problem-solving skills, and develop knowledge-based activities to remove sanctions barriers. Also, facilitating public-private partnership and facilitating the presence of international companies in the field of healthcare can help increase competition. Manuscript profile

The development of oil and gas industries in the Pars Special Economic Zone, Assaluyeh city will experience double exposure to industrial developments. The development of the oil and gas industry in these areas has provided the basis for the transition from a traditional society to an industrial and urban society, and in the process of transition, has left extensive changes in the cultural dimension. The main objective of this research is to design a model to evaluate the impact of oil-gas industry development on the dimensions of public culture in Assaluyeh zone. To measure and determine the importance and validity of each indicator, the proposed model was provided to experts. The proposed model with high validity (92/8) was approved by experts. In analyzing the data of this applied research, descriptive and inferential statistical methods have been used. The results showed that the mean of cultural values variable has a significant difference with the hypothetical or expected mean (Sig < 0.05).In other words, according to the statistical community, the development of the oil and gas industry has weakened cultural values. Also, the mean of family culture variable and material elements of culture have a significant difference with the hypothetical or expected mean (Sig < 0.05). As a result, due to the fusion of industry and tradition, a kind of cultural rupture and conflict was observed. The development of the oil and gas industry has caused extensive changes in cultural values, family culture and material elements in the Assaluyeh region. Manuscript profile

 The textile industry is one of the strategic industries and one of the basic pillars of society. Textile inYazd has a long history, but in recent years has experienced an unfavorable situation. Meanwhile, industrialclusters have many advantages in economic development by bringing together small enterprises. Various factorscontribute to the success of industrial clusters. Social capital is one of the indicators of growth and developmentof any country is one of the dimensions of social indicators. In this study, we have studied its role in the successor failure of Yazd textile industrial cluster with a qualitative approach. The data of this study were obtainedfrom a semi-structured interview with 17 industry owners, academics and researchers in this field. The findingsof this study, using thematic analysis, address challenges at three levels of communication between industrialorganizations and the textile industry, including "The ineffective approach of the government prevents thepromotion of organizations to the supportive position of industry and government", "the alienation of industryowners from the organizational culture", "Lack of support for technology development projects and the creationof technical knowledge" and "Motivational barriers and high volume of educational and executive activities ofacademics", "Lack of development of the necessary infrastructure for commercialization of research", "Lack ofsystemic thinking between industry and university managers", "Lack of mission-oriented planning in theeducational and research policies of the higher education system", the relationship between universities andresearch centers and innovation with the textile industry, and "inaction and regression in the field of structuredplanning", "Lack of necessary mechanisms to reduce the final price and increase competitiveness","Decentralized and rent-seeking policies", "Lack of forward-looking and specialized policy-making" therelationship of government organizations with the textile industry. The findings indicate the significant role ofgovernment and government policies in the low level of social capital in the textile industrial cluster of Yazd.Therefore, changing the government's approach to its role in Yazd textile industry from entrepreneurial toprotectionist is one of the most important factors in increasing the appropriate social capital.  Manuscript profile

Introduction and purpose of the research: One of the main criteria to measure the success of a building project is completing it in accordance with the predicted costs.  In Iran, like many undeveloped and developing countries, the construction cost overruns are among the key issues many sections face. The city of Mashhad, as the second largest city in Iran, in the last two decades, has faced rapid urban growth and an increase in the construction, and ignoring the causes of cost overrun has led to an increase in the price of buildings. This study is aimed at identifying and ranking the factors influencing the cost overrun in construction projects in Mashhad to allow for improving the construction condition and achieve higher economic productivity.Research Method: The research has a quantitative approach and an applied objective. The components of the study, i.e., the factors influencing the cost overrun in building projects, were extracted using library studies and reviewing similar studies. Then ranked using the Relative Importance Index (RII) and the Best-Worst Technique (BWM) with the help of Excel, SPSS and Lingo software.Findings: The findings of RII method show that according to consultants and contractors, the three factors of “poor project management, material price fluctuations and inflation” are the main causes of cost overrun in Mashhad. Owners believe that the “lack of contractor experience” factor also has a significant impact. The findings of the BWM method indicate that in addition to poor management, “poor initial planning” and “inflation” are of great importance.Conclusion: The results show that the factors such as “poor project management, poor initial planning, market inflation, and mistakes during construction” are the main reasons for the cost overrun in the production procedure of building projects in Mashhad.  Manuscript profile

Background and Aim: Land surface temperature (LST) is a key boundary condition in many ground-based modeling schemes based on remote sensing. Previous literature has shown that LST products from satellite imagery can be used to detect land surface changes, including urbanization, deforestation and desertification, which can improve our ability to monitor surface changes continuously. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the results of DisTRAD and TsHARP thermal sharpening methods to downscale the spatial resolution of MODIS LST from 1000 m to 250 m.Method: The research method in the present article is applied in terms of purpose and based on correlation relations in terms of method of work.Results: The performance of DisTRAD and TsHARP thermal downscaling methods were evaluated by the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and the Mean Bias Error (MBE) between the downscaled and original LSTs. Statistical analysis showed that the RMSE between the downscaled images of DisTRAD and TsHARP methods with the original LST (1000 m (terra)) for 3 May 2019 were found to be 1.77 ° C and 1.7 ° C, respectively, whereas the R2 were found to be about 53% and for 17 October 2019, the RMSE were found to be 2.44 ° C and 2.38 ° C respectively, whereas the R2 were found to be about 85%.Conclusion: The study of the results of Terra and Aqua satellites generally shows the superiority of Terra satellite results over Aqua. The main reason could be the different passage times of the satellites from the study area. Since that changes in soil moisture and water body such as the Karun River are common sources of error, so the use of these methods is recommended only in areas without excessive changes in moisture.

Background and objective: The study, to assess the level of environmental radiation and to obtain the impact of the development of industry, including petrochemicals, on the formation of nuclear pollution, the specific activity of radionuclides, and the amount of absorbed dose were measured in the Miankaleh peninsula in the north of Iran, south-east of the Caspian Sea. Material and Methodology: 43 samples were collected from the north and south coasts of the Miankala peninsula, including 13 bottles of water and 30 bags of sediments, and the specific activities of radionuclides in the samples were determined using a high-purity germanium detector. The distribution map of radioactive elements was made using GIS software. Findings: The average specific activity of 226Ra, 232Th, 40K and 137Cs in sediment samples were 18.17±1.62, 16.21±1.36, 266.28±9.45, and 2.61±0.27 Bqkg-1, respectively, and the average specific activity of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in water samples was 0.78±0.12, 5.39±0.75 and 17.89±1.79 Bqkg-1, respectively. The average absorbed dose rate in air was calculated as 28.73±1.91 nGyh-1. Discussion and Conclusion: The specific activity of natural radionuclides was calculated to be lower than the global average. The amount of dose absorbed in this area is within the permissible limit. The average radioactive concentration in the water samples of the southern shores of the Miankala peninsula is higher than its northern shores, which are adjacent to the Caspian Sea. However, the concentration of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K in the northern coastal sediments is higher than that of the southern coasts. The concentration of 137Cs is higher on the southern coast of the Miankala peninsula, which located in a dry area, due to the lack of water flow. Manuscript profile

Background and Objective: Cellulose industries are closely related to forests and natural resources, and on the other hand, the chemicals used in them are sometimes transferred to nature. Therefore, they can affect the environment in two ways and therefore have an urgent need for management with a green approach, especially in the field of supply chain. Achieving this is possible by finding the most effective factors in implementing green supply chain management in this industry, which has been done in this research. In previous similar studies, the weight of the same factors has often been considered, and in addition, the weight of the interviewees has been considered the same when collecting data. In this paper, both problems have been solved by using EDAS-SEM methods and a more valid ranking of the components of green supply chain management in the cellulose industry has been presented.To provide a green supply chain management model in the cellulose industry, including transparent factors and accurate weights so that it can be used to measure the performance of managers in this area and to suggest the most effective factors for future promotion to managers.Material and Methodology: This research is qualitative and survey in how to collect data and quantitative in processing them. In terms of practical purpose and in terms of method, it is mixed. Modeling and analysis methods include entropy, EDAS, SEM. The statistical population is 63 managers of Qom cellulose production industries, for whom a questionnaire was sent in 2019, and 55 were completed. Therefore, sampling method, sample is available. Data collection tool is a questionnaire and data analysis tool is confirmatory factor analysis with partial least squares approach and SmartPLS3 software. Excel was used for entropy and EDAS calculations.Findings: The most important indicators of green supply chain performance in Qom cellulose products industries are selecting suppliers with environmental criteria, determining environmental requirements for purchasing items and auditing compliance with environmental regulations. Also, the weight of managers varies according to the characteristics of the elites. These findings can be generalized to other cellulose industries.Discussion and Conclusion:  The proposed model can be used for a better future in the management of the green supply chain of cellulose industries by evaluating the performance of managers in senior and middle levels at the organizational and unit levels. The achievements of this research can also be used to identify the most important factors at each level and allocate future resources to them.  Manuscript profile

Background & Objectives: LARG supply chain is a combination of four supply chains: lean, agile, resilient and green. Each type of supply chain has its own requirements that may conflict with other supply chain requirements. The study seeks to identify the types of risks facing the LARG supply chain.Material and Methodology: The present study has a positive nature in terms of philosophical foundations due to the use of quantitative methods. From the orientation point of view, the research has an applied approach and its methodology is multiple. The statistical population of the study is the experts of the supply chain of the automotive industry who are selected using a judgmental method for sampling. In this study, two methods of fuzzy Delphi and best-worst were used to analyze the data.Findings: Initially, 41 risks were identified through literature and interviews with experts. In the following, these 41 risks are presented in the form of 13 main risks. Each of these risks is related to a specific supply chain. These risks were then screened by fuzzy Delphi and 25 risks were excluded. The remaining risks were prioritized using the BWM. The results showed that the risks of financing problems, production planning, changing customer demands and weakness of processes and recycling technology have the highest priority in each component of the LARG supply chain.Discussion and Conclusion: Diversifying financing tools, using new marketing methods and having a team approach in product development, paying attention to trends affecting future consumer behavior and examining changes in customers' buying behavior are the most important suggestions.  Manuscript profile

A great amount of agricultural wastes are produced in Iran, which can be converted into suitable sources of ethanol production. Molasses is one of the cheapest and most frequent carbon sources which are available for ethanol production. This application, besides preventing molasses from entering the environment, produces a clean fuel which is compatible with nature. The main goal of this study was to produce ethanol as a clean and environment-friendly fuel. To this end, the biosynthesis of ethanol was conducted by Saccharomyces cerevisiae PTCC5010, using cane molasses as substrate through batch fermentation processes. Experiments were carried out at the ambient temperature (25o C) and pH 4.5. Batch ethanol production was carried out with 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 gl-1 of cane molasses. The total sugar consumption, maximum ethanol production, and productivity at 50 gl-1 of molasses were 93.27%, 9.3 g ethanol/l molasses,and 0.24 g ethanol/g total sugar,respectively. However, the maximum cell dry weight and biomass yield were 5.15 g CDW/l and 0.18 g CDW/g total sugar, respectively. The results showed that the applied substrate could indeed support the production of a sustainable biofuel. These alternatives exhibited comparable biological activity in comparison with the fuels obtained using more costly biomasses. . Also, ethanol can be substituted with fossil fuels because of the low pollution produced as a result of its combustion Manuscript profile

The selection, transfer and development of technology is one of the main pillars of the upstream oil and gas industry. The process of selecting technology in Iran, due to the type of ownership and special importance of oil and gas resources, is considered as one of the main components in the upstream part of this industry. Technology selection is a mechanism that aims to achieve economic benefits. In order to achieve effective technology, transfer in this industry, it seems necessary in terms of indirect effect in addition to its direct effect. One of these effects on technology transfer that must be considered is the issue of technology overflow. The present study is based on the study method, according to the rules and available resources, and in line with previous studies. Finally, the present study aims to develop a conceptual model of economic evaluation, a quantitative structure of transfer technology in terms of overflow effect. Lack of impact of overflow is one of the main reasons for lack of impact of technology transfer in the country. If the effect of overflow is applied in technical and economic calculations and contractual cases in the selection and transfer of technology, it can improve the effectiveness of technology at various levels of industry and even at the national level.

There are different theories in capital structure litreture witch describe financing behavior of capital structure. Trade-of and pecking order theories, as two famous capital structure theories, make diffrent explaination for capital structure adjustments. Recent studies find evidence that support the idea of using both theories simultaneously would help explaination ability of capital structure adjustment model. So in this way, examining adverse selection cost while moving toward optimal capital structure can make better designation of capital structure adjustment models. Using partial adjustment mode, this research investigate factors influence adjustment speed of capital structure toward optimal leverage ratio. We examine impact of cashflow inbalances, industry concentration, industry munificence and industry dynamism on speed of adjustment by using fixed effects regression and generalised method of moments. Our sample consists of 155 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange for the period from 1385 to 1394. We find that for above-target firms, adjustment for firms with financial surpluses is faster. For concentrated below-target firms, adjustment speed would be slower than other firms. Also dynamic above-target firms have strong tendency to adjust their leverage by reducing it.

Sustainable entrepreneurship based on value creation in the context of investment is one of the most important issues for today's competitive businesses. Therefore, while paying attention to investing in this field, the concepts of value creation should be considered as very influential characteristics on it as well as the consequence of investing. To conduct this research, first, a comprehensive review of sustainable entrepreneurship management models was conducted. After the interviews, the interviews were coded; challenges, gaps and ideas for resolving them were presented. Using a systematic approach and distributing a questionnaire, the opinions of experts on the importance of sustainable entrepreneurship indicators were examined. Finally, according to Pareto's optimal law, the factors with the highest score (20% higher) were identified as influential factors. Findings indicate that individual input variables are factors of control centre, creativity, individual independence and the need for success and risk, respectively. Environmental input variables are the most important effective factors, respectively, market situation, social corruption and unemployment rate, entrepreneurship education and culture, government support and creating a legal basis. Also, the most important factors related to system outputs are the creation of industries and businesses, economic growth and sustainable development, unemployment rates and social corruption, respectively.

The statistical population of the study is all companies of the mass real estate industry in the Tehran Stock Exchange from 1390 to 1398. Data were analyzed in Eviews10 and MATLAB software. Predicting stock price behavior and the whole industry index by autoregressive methods and moving average in terms of random processes showed that the explained pattern can not be used to predict stock price behavior but in some random steps, the forecasting error was negligible. Regarding the forecast of stock price behavior, the last three steps of the process, winter have a significant effect on stock price forecast; But the first step has a significant effect on predicting the behavior of the industry index. In the first steps, the error of predicting the behavior of the industry index is very small and the explained model can be used to predict the behavior of the index in the first months of the year.

This research investigates the effect of social performance indicators on credit risk in the banking industry. To this end, a 6 years period was considered during 2012- 2017. Finally, 20 banks selected as the study population. The independent variable of this research is the social performance index of banks. In order to elaborate on the social function index checklist, the method of meta‌-‌synthesis was used. The content analysis method was then used to measure the rank of social responsibility indicators (number of disclosed items on the total number of items disclosed). In addition, the dependent variable is credit risk. The statistical method used to test the hypothesis proposed in the panel data research. The results indicate a positive and significant relationship between social performance indicators and associated risk factors. That is, the greater the risk of social performance indicators in banks and their operating cost, the higher the risk of credit. On the other hand, the coefficient of estimation of 0.44 for social performance indicators shows that 0.44 changes in banks' credit risk are due to changes in social performance. Also, bank managers should be more cautious in applying social responsibility mechanisms and not assume that this effect should logically be negative is always true. Manuscript profile

The importance of risk management in the pharmaceutical industry of each country reflects its ability to provide health in that community. The purpose of this article is to present a comprehensive risk management model in the pharmaceutical industry. In this study, it was attempted to collect data by means of a survey method after receiving the opinions of senior industry experts and experts familiar with the industry through a researcher-made questionnaire, and after confirming its validity and reliability. After that, risk types including financial and non-financial risks were identified and by using PLS software proposed a comprehensive risk management model. To evaluate the confirmatory factor analysis model, it is used the second most important index of estimation of variance error (SRMR). The value of the index is 0.079 for this model, which can be said that the model having had an appropriate fitting. This pattern shows that, non-financial risks are more effective than financial risks. Among non-financial risk sub indicators, operational risk with path coefficient of 0.970 has the highest effect, followed by management risk with path coefficient of 0.896 and then country risk with path coefficient of 0.818 and the legal risk with path coefficient of 0.765 have been determined as the latest influential indicator. And among the financial risk sub indicators, market risk with path coefficient of 0.969 has the most effect, followed by liquidity risk with path coefficient of 0.855 and the credit risk have been determined as the last effective indicators with path coefficient of 0.769.

Over the past years, technological leaps and consecutive innovations in production processes have led to immense and unprecedented changes in the global industrial vista. In this midst, we are witness to the nascence of new concepts such as “industry 4.0,” which have become the topic of increasing focus by researchers. In the present study, existing research work on the models and assessment readiness criteria for the adoption of industry 4.0 are overviewed. The new industrial paradigm resulting from the integration of  technologies that are based on physical cyber systems and digital transformation will radically change both the industry and the economy. Against this significant backdrop, the fundamental industry 4.0 readiness criteria have been identified and a suitable process framework for the readiness assessment of the country’s firms and enterprises is put to the fore. At the outset, all major scientific databases, i.e., Springer, Emerald, Sage, and Science Direct, including 40 scientific papers on readiness assessment and indicators of firms’ maturity level for the adoption of industry 4.0, were considered. Out of these articles, 16 were selected and subsequent to their comparative review, the resulting criteria for the assessment of the readiness and maturity of firms were extracted with a view to their suitability for Iranian firms and industrial parks.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between macroeconomics variables and Tehran Exchange Price Index. In other words in this article in order to extend the previous studies, the interpretation of three categories of monetary and fiscal policies and industrial development on the growth of the capital market is considered. For this purpose we have analyzed the relationship between some macroeconomic variables such as Liquidity, tax and industrial production index with Total Price Index and seasonal data since 1994 till 2014. In this study the relationship between variables have been estimated by using regression analysis and method of ordinary lease squares. After controlling for regression assumptions including Outliers, Normal distribution for the dependent variable, Homogeneity of variance, non autocorrelation; the results indicate there are positive and significant relationship between liquidity and the industrial production index with Total Price Index and there are negative relationship between taxes and total Price Index. Among other indicators used in the study considerable significant relationship was found with Tehran Exchange Price Index. These results suggest the neutralizing effects of both monetary and fiscal policy on the Tehran Exchange Price Index and confirm the impact of industrial sector development on stock index Manuscript profile

Brand is one of the most valuable intangible assets and is a factor for distinguishing companies in customers' point of view. To value brands, many methods and models have been invented in the past three decades by researchers and consultant companies. Financial value of brand can be used for strategic management, financial transactions and litigation purposes. Since financial value of brands has been recently accepted as security for borrowing loans from Iranian banks, specified brand's financial value would be a privilege in winning funding opportunities. Especially for companies with continuing need of investment, this would be an appropriate method of financing. A great example of such companies is telecommunication service providers. Therefore calculating financial value of brand in this sector seems to be of paramount importance. With this in mind, the two most popular valuation models, Intangible Business and Financial World were applied to calculate Rightel's brand value as a case study in telecommunication industry. The results didn't show noticeable difference between the calculated values. Manuscript profile

Industry is one of the important parts of the countrys economic that attention to it is the goals of developed and developing countries. In Iran, according to the Statistics, Industries and Mines sector has been allocated about 25 percent of GDP to itself. Despite this contribution, the industry during the implementation of development programs and policies of adjustment and stabilization has been effected from macro-economic policies, especially monetary and fiscal policies. With this approach, the present study has been investigated the effect of shocks in monetary and fiscal policy on value added of industry and mining sector in Iran during 1991-2013. To reach this goal, firstly the monetary and fiscal policy shocks was modeled in framework of Hodrick and Prescott filter. Then using the ARDL model, the effects of monetary and fiscal policy shocks on value added of industry and mining sector along with variables such as net capital stock of industries and mines, labor employed in this sector and the costs of education were examined. The results of this study showed that a positive shock of monetary and fiscal policy has a direct impact on the value added of industry sector; But the negative shock of monetary and fiscal policy, has a negative effect on the value added of the industry. The results also revealed that the capital stock and labor employed in industry and mining sector have a positive effect on the value added of this sector. Accordingly, it can be said that 10 percent increase in the capital stock and labor, increase the value-added of industry sector 7.3 and 5.6 percent in the long term, respectively.  Finally, the results indicated that per capita government spending on education has also a positive impact on the value added of industry sector; So that 10 percent increase in per capita government spending, increase the value-added of industry sector 3.4 percent in the long term.

Financial Contagion is considered as one of the key concern in the financial markets. Financial Contagion is categorized by return contagion and shock contagion. The purpose of this paper is to examine the short-term, medium-term and long-term contagion of return shocks and volatilities into the stock market. The sample consisted of the daily price of Dollar, Euro, Gold and Oil during the period from 2007 to 2014. To analyze the data within the sample, using the Wavelet analysis, the time series have been broken into different periods and the financial contagion has been analyzed through both factor analysis and correlation analysisIn conclusion, it was found that the return of industry Indexes are significantly related to the return of Oil, Gold, Dollar and Euro markets which was proved to be more significant between dependent and independent variables in short run. Furthermore, considering the sum of coefficients of independent variables during different periods and among various industries, it could be perceived that Industry indexes are mostly influenced by the return of Oil, Gold, Dollar and Euro variables respectively.

Rasht, as the center of Gilan province, has the highest number of food industries and since these industries in the northern part of the country, especially Gilan are the most dominant existing ones, it seemed necessary to study management conditions of the food industries’ residuals through observation and filling in topic questionnaires in 40 active industrial units in Rasht.   As the first step in this research, the food industries of the city were identified and classified based on their products. Then, active units were specified and their residuals’ management status was studied. Next, obtained data were analyzed using statistical softwares such as SPSS and other softwares were used for drawing relevant tables and diagrams. To study the quality of residuals and their compositions in each food industry group, the temporary storage places were surveyed and through filling in the questionnaires by those in charge the physical analysis of the residuals and the production levels were reviewed the results of which are as follows: Studies showed that the majority of food industries in Rasht did not pay close attention to environmental aspects, particularly the management of their residuals; they did not observe environmental regulations; they considered the cooperation of environment experts costly and problematic and often would not take any measure to analyze their residuals. It is noteworthy that among all food industries of the city only one of them was selected as the “Green Industry”. It was also found that bread, biscuit and drinks producing groups had the highest level of industrial wastes while bread, biscuit and drinks producing groups showed the highest level of domestic wastes. About 63% of the wastes from industrial residuals were recyclable; however only were practically recycled. The most frequent waste disposal methods exercised by the industries were selling (45.6%) and hygienic burying (32%). In addition, some industries burned a part (4.3%) of their wastes in a nonstandard way. The common way of keeping wastes until disposal was open stores in the factory that in itself could cause pollution. The major source of industrial wastes in food industries could be said to be from products (24.32%) and then those of packaging (20.58%). Moreover, the time periods of waste disposal in 48.2% of industries were case disposals and 15.4% of them were reported on a daily basis.   Manuscript profile

Background and Objective: Chitin is found in the external skeleton of insects, the shell of crustaceans and the fungal cell wall. Chitin with the formula B-1, 4 N- acetyl glucosamine, it was first identified in 1884. Countries such as India, Japan, Poland and Australia are among the main producers of this biopolymer. Material and Methodology: In this research, the structure and importance of chitin and one of its valuable derivatives, chitosan, have been studied. Chitin is a hard substance with a crystalline structure and white color. The main source of industrial chitin production in the world is shell waste from shrimp and crab processing industries. Chitosan is a derivative of chitin obtained by deacetylation of chitin. In fact, chitosan is a composite polymer of glucose amine and N-acetylglucose amine, which are connected by 1 and 4 glycosidic bonds. Due to the presence of amino groups in the structure of chitosan, this substance has better solubility in acidic environments. Findings: Due to the unique properties of chitin and chitosan, its use in various industries such as water engineering, paper industry, textile industry, food processing, agriculture, laboratory (chromatography), solid state batteries, chitosan gel for LED, it has been reported in medical and biological fields including tissue engineering, wound healing/wound dressing, ophthalmology. Discussion and Conclusion: In general, chitin and chitosan are used in all mentioned fields. The use of these healthy and environmentally friendly compounds, especially in the field of medicine and other industries, is very economical and profitable. Manuscript profile

Background and Objective: As a result of the development of industries and the entry of waste water from industrial factories into the environment, the ecosystem around the factories and surface and underground waters are in danger of pollution.  In this research, the effect of released wastewater plating industry in Safadasht Industrial Park of Karaj on the concentration of heavy metals in the area was studied in spring and summer. Material and Methodology: Sampling was carried out at a distance of 70, 120, 220, 320 and 430 meters from the industrial complex around the discharge path. The method of digestion and atomic absorption of flame was used to measure chromium and nickel content in samples. Findings: The average results of soil samples were 1.15 to 2.12 for chromium and 1.07 to 1.73 for nickel in spring and 1.39 to 3.46 for chromium and 1.83 to 3.13 for μg / g for nickel in summer. Discussion and Conclusion: The results of the comparison of the levels of chromium and nickel in the soil in spring and summer, according to global standards, show that at all stations in both seasons the amount of chromium and nickel is lower than global standards. The zoning results show that the concentration of the elements in the samples increased with increasing distance from the wastewater to the environment at a distance of 430 meters. The reason for this can be the release of wastewater and its washed off by runoff during seasons from the industrial complex around the distances. Manuscript profile

AbstractBackground and Purpose: In the development process, economic activities are associated with positive and negative environmental effects in countries. What is observed physically and in the present is the production of the product and the resulting growth in economic activities. While by assessing the environmental activities of economic activities and recognizing its direct and indirect negative effects on society now and in the future, the net effects of economic activities can be identified.Material and Methodology: The industrial sector is fundamental to economic growth. The industrial sector's share of total economic activity equals 16 percent. Sometimes its activities are accompanied by the destruction of the environment. This article examines the factors affecting CO2 emissions with an emphasis on the industrial sector by using the ARDL and FMOLS methods for the years 94-1360.Finding: The results of this study confirm EKC Technology. In other words, by increasing the value added of industry, the emission increases but its slope decreases (inverse u shape). With increasing fossil fuel consumption and globalization, emissions will increase.Discussion and Conclusion: Compare the results of the short-run and long-run model showing the sensitivity of Co2 emissions to fossil fuel consumption and the long run globalization index is larger than the short run.  Manuscript profile

    Global warming occurs due to the increase of greenhouse gases emission including   CO2, the consequence of which would be the drastic changes in the Earth's climate. Due to the consumption of fossil fuels and the chemical processes used to produce cement at the stage of heating the raw material, the net amount of CO2 gas production in the cement industry is about 15 to 25% .         The present research discusses the technical feasibility of recycling CO2 in Abyek Cement Complex, which is known as large cement industry in the country with the production capacity of about 12,500 tons per day on two production lines. The main fuel of furnaces in this industry is heavy oil. Due to the combustion, the gases emitted from the five-stage pre heater include 24.5% CO2, 7.6% H2O, 48% O2 by volume and 61.3% N2. With respect to the analysis of gases emitted from the furnace of Abyek Cement Complex and the factory's available facilities, the absorption was designed using post combustion process through the chemical absorption method using Monoethanolamine  (MEA) by HYSYS software. The required equipment of the process was simulated and optimized and dimensions of all the process components were determined.  The results show that approximately 117 ton per hour of CO2 with the efficiency of 97% at  C with moisture content (1179 kg/h), Oxygen     (2.5 kg/h), and nitrogen (16.5 kg/h) is absorbed which can be transferred to the consuming centers after pressurization and condensation.

AbstractThe Holy Quran, as the King of the Book of Existence, despite its abandonment among human societies, especially among Muslims, contains many thematic themes and novelties that all rhetorical and syntactic books have made the most of this great book. . The attention industry is one of the most common literary industries used in Arabic and Persian, which has long been used by speakers and writers. The rhetoricians, syntacticians, critics, and commentators have each provided definitions of attention that have changed over time. Therefore, the attitude of the new rhetorician is different from the old rhetoric towards this literary industry. This research aims to examine the difference between the view of rhetoricians at different times in this literary array and also the difference in the amount of examples of this industry in Surah Anbiya in the seventeenth part of the Holy Quran.

Land Surface Temperature (LST) is one of important parameters that is measured using Remote-sensing tools and thermal bands of satellites. The importance of this issue is revealed when direct effects of temperature are shown on the increase and decrease of evaporation, evapotranspiration and as a result, the moisture content changes in the plant. In this study, the temperature of sugarcane canopy cover was measured by LandSat 8 satellite data in 8 sugarcane fields out of Salman Farsi Sugacane Industry involving 5 points from each field (totally 40 points); these points were irrigated in different days and measured by the infrared thermometer. The points were selected at the edges of fields with the intervals of 30 m in order to avoid the combination of them with the pixels with no vegetation. To calibrate the Split Window (SW) algorithm, the input data of water evaporation, emissivity and transmittance as well as LandSat 8 satellite images were applied. Results have shown that the estimation of vegetation temperature of sugarcane fields in different days of irrigation was of an acceptable accuracy. Also, in the points with the same vegetation, irrigation is the main factor for the changes of temperature. In this research, Residual Mean Error Square (RMSe), and Mean Average Error for the measured field temperature and extracted one by the satellite images were given as 0.925 and 0.766 °C, respectively.

Background and Objective Human civilizations have long been formed along the rivers and water-rich areas, due to the need for water resources. Today, the growing trend of societies and the need for progress in various fields such as agriculture, housing, tourism, etc., have made the exploitation of water resources inevitable. The severe economic dependence of the country on the oil exports on the one hand, and the disregard for the potential income from different types of tourism, on the other hand, made in this study solve the problems concerning the tourism industry. While identifying a suitable place for investment in the margins of water resources, we will introduce the most crucial capacities for the growth and development of tourism in communities, including structures such as dams, rivers, and dikes correction. These structures prevent hazards such as floods, erosion, and sediment that impede sustainable development. Therefore, this research will help us in watershed management operations and tourism development, along with creating special landscapes and reducing the related expenditures. For this purpose, by preparing various scenarios for special conditions such as slopes and water canals, necessary measures such as the dikes correction can be done in the best way. Also, the present study may provide the managers and stakeholders with a better view of the field of watershed management and the tourism industry. The research questions are as follows: What are the advantages and disadvantages of constructing any type of dike for tourism?, and What is the impact of dikes correction on the catchments of the study area and its role in attracting tourists?. In today's world, where tourism is a lucrative and pervasive industry, it is possible to help attract more tourists and identify these attractions by linking the watershed management, tourism, and rural attractions. Corrective structures are small structures constructed, using simple materials such as wood, stone, stone and mortar, concrete, and gravel netting, to reduce the slope of the canals, reduce the speed of water flow, and control erosion. In this study, by determining the appropriate location of dikes correction, it has been attempted to show the role of watershed management operations in the development of tourism in an area and the ways of reducing the financial and human costs of natural threats caused by rainfall. Without carefully examining the proper location of the dikes correction, any measure will have adverse effects on rural areas, roads, farms, and gardens, as well as urban areas. By merely building some kinds of the dike, we could not hope to earn huge incomes from tourism. Therefore, in this research, the following goals would be pursued: Determining and identifying the places affected by the dikes correction plan in the study area, Preserving water and soil, preventing the erosion, and creating a tourism-friendly environment; Scientific review of the advantages and disadvantages of dikes correction; Reduction of damages resulted from the drought and creating a beautiful environment; Study of international ideas and experiences in this regard; Reviewing the works done in other areas and comparing it with the works in the study area; The performance of dikes in the study area in terms of rainfall status and its role in the rate of erosion and sedimentation; The impact of structures correction on human, social and physical capitals and its consequences for society.Materials and Methods This applied study has been conducted in Khorramabad, the center of Lorestan Province-Iran. With an area of 4942 square kilometers and an altitude of 1148 meters above sea level and having a temperate climate, this area is one of the most important and largest catchments of the Karkheh River. Using the opinion of experts and applying the #C programming language for each of the hydrological criteria with the following sub-indicators, a weight is obtained. Using the effect of the weights on the created phase map and the geographical information system, a weight map is produced. Sub-indicators include water canals (grading the streams), wells, springs, and aqueducts (location of these resources downstream of these structures), topography with geological subsections (rock hardness), coverage, slope (division in the range of 5-70%), economic and social indicators (main roads and by-ways and location of villages) and two important land usage priorities (severe dependency on the type of land coverage with regard to the erosion) and faults prepared from the Geology map (1:25000). By merging all accessible maps, suitable locations will be selected to build correction dams in proper tourist areas.Results and Discussion In this study, we examined the type of dikes correction in 8 random points of the study area, the results of which show the appropriateness of the implementation method of the study. Considering the objectives of the study and the importance of constructing each of the dikes correction in reducing the damages caused by erosion and sedimentation after rainfalls, and regarding the importance of the project in tourist attraction, and lastly to improve the performance of such projects, we will present the following suggestions: Implementation of studies in the margins of structures, for tourism development; Construction of fishing ponds in the path of correction structures and including a fishing program for tourists, with the aim of entertainment and creating inner peace; Reducing the pressure on water and land resources, by increasing currency earnings and entrepreneurship in the framework of ecotourism services; Maintaining and increasing the balance of water resources in order to attract tourists; Storage and preservation of seasonal waters in order to grow vegetation and increase the desire of tourists, in the dry seasons of the region; Piloting a part of the study area, with the aim of determining the role of dikes correction in attracting tourists and comparing it with other water resources; Using the knowledge of watershed management engineers in the scientific construction of various correction, in order to attract scientific tourists; Maximize the development of ecotourism with abandoned water resources.Conclusion The analysis of the findings of this study reveals that in order to assume tourism as an applied industry, its various aspects should be considered; The most important strategies and suggestions presented to achieve this research goal are as follows:  Providing simple, appropriate and practical solutions based on scientific principles to improve the employment situation, maintain and develop infrastructures, revitalize tourist sites (watershed structures) and sane financial resources. Prioritization in this way plays an effective role in making the watershed and tourism construction credits, purposeful. Manuscript profile

Objective: Entrepreneurship plays a key role in today's competitive, market-based economy. In other words, in a dynamic economy, ideas, products and services are always changing, and in the meantime, it is the entrepreneur who brings a model for coping and adapting to new conditions. One of the ways to deal with the current changing conditions is the existence of social capital in the entrepreneurial business. The purpose of this study was to present a sports entrepreneurship model with a social capital approach based on data foundation theory.Methodology: The research method in this study was qualitative that using the data theory strategy of Strauss and Carbin Foundation, the views of the interviewees about the components of sports entrepreneurship were analyzed with a social capital approach. Participants in the present study were specialists and experts in sports management, sociology and entrepreneurship. Research sampling was based on theoretical method; Sampling continued until the categories reached theoretical saturation. The number of samples was not determined before the research was conducted and the sampling process continued until some information saturation was obtained; This means that no new information is extracted from the data during the interview. Theoretical saturation was obtained after interviewing 18 people. The tools of the present study were in-depth and exploratory interviews. The validity of the findings was determined by matching methods by members, peer review and pilot interviews. Open, axial and selective coding were used to analyze the data.Results: After the interviews, the open, pivotal and selective coding process in the form of 6 dimensions of the paradigm model includes: causal causes such as institutionalizing the culture of entrepreneurship, institutionalizing the culture of teamwork, dynamizing the community economy, central categories such as creating a culture of participation. Creating entrepreneurial thinking in managers, supporting innovative projects and increasing the trust of strategies such as reforming the structure of organizations, entrepreneurship education, equitable distribution of wealth and power. Such as personality traits, social class of individuals, non-competitive environment and consequences such as reducing unemployment, increasing social welfare and improving quality of life were identified.Conclusion: Social capital has a dynamic and self-evolutionary character. Thus, with the help of social capital, entrepreneurs are able to facilitate social relations in business and thus take steps to maintain and strengthen social cohesion and solidarity, and ultimately the development of their business. Based on the paradigm model obtained from the research, it can be acknowledged that entrepreneurs must use strategies to create and develop social capital in their business to be more successful.Keywords: Social Capital, Sports Industry, Entrepreneurship, Foundation Data Theory Manuscript profile

Franchising is an innovative business method in which people behave according to quality and improvement (Guo, 2023). Franchise is a new entrepreneurial method in the market (Rosado, 2023). Franchise is a system and business relationship between franchisor and franchisee under a brand name. In exchange for money, the owner of the brand and business model gives the franchisee the right to use the said brand and business model, including all related trademarks, goods, systems, etc. (Abdul Ghani, 2022). To provide ongoing service and support, franchisors must generate revenue and profit. Franchise franchise guarantees require the franchisor to invest in the success of the franchisee and guarantee the flourishing of the brand. However, fundamentally, franchising is about the franchisor's relationship with its franchisees (Rye, 2021).Compared to other types of business, franchising will be less risky than starting an independent business, because franchisees benefit from the brand recognition and knowledge of their franchisor. This also makes young franchisees successful because they follow exactly the franchisor's instructions (Le Bot, 2022). In contrast, franchisees provide financial capital for the franchise system, knowledge of geographic areas and labor markets, and management of their workforce (Cook, 2021). Although franchising allows franchisees to own, manage, and operate their own businesses without assuming all of the associated risks, franchise growth is becoming more widespread in response to the changing competitive environment because franchise products are more stable and Their quality is known, which leads to national and local trust in the products and services provided (Sun, 2021).MethodologyAccording to the obtained results, it is clear that 10 factors are related to the first level. Creating commercial leverage, increasing production in sports, franchise preliminary training, platform modifiability, platform and legal support, participant attraction structure, workforce participation, sustainable business, strategic policies, and support policies. Also, two factors are on the second level. These two factors include creating financial concentration and creating government policies. The only factor related to the third level is the semiotics of employee experience. The factor of national pride remains in the model, which is related to the fourth level of the modelFindingsAccording to the obtained results, it is clear that 10 factors are related to the first level.

The only factor related to the third level is the semiotics of employee experience. The factor of national pride remains in the model, which is related to the fourth level of the modelConclusionFranchise as a market entry strategy can be an advantage for the state sports of our country and many countries benefit from this system. Therefore, considering that the strategy of expert human resources is an important thing in improving the business of sports products, it is suggested that they pay attention to this matter and help by taking measures to develop better and more marketing strategies. For this purpose, they can get help from management consulting companies in the field of formulation and implementation of various franchise strategies. It is also appropriate for sports businesses to increase the recognition of the abilities, weaknesses and strengths of human resources by formulating appropriate strategies, which will allow sports product businesses to gain a competitive advantage. It is suggested to institutionalize the sale of sports products by adopting policies and determining appropriate structures, as well as providing favorable environments and platforms. It is suggested that by holding educational workshops for sports businesses, they provide business development with a franchise approach. Also, among the limitations of the present research, it can be stated that the data collection coincided with the spread of the corona virus, which caused problems in physical access to the research samples. Also, this research has been done cross-sectionally. Because of this, it makes it difficult to draw conclusions about causality. And the issues related to coordination with the respondents were among the other issues that faced problems and delays in the research implementation process. Manuscript profile

The term 'industry' now signifies art in today's common understanding. Historically, 'industry' was employed in a broader sense rather than referring to art, and it underwent analysis and scrutiny by thinkers. For instance, in literary texts, it was depicted as a virtue, and in Islamic wisdom and Sufism, it was denoted as a profession imbued with sanctity, encompassing both physical and spiritual dimensions. Each Islamic sage and philosopher interpreted it similarly, leading them to view the creation of artificial works from a spiritual perspective. Undoubtedly, the primary source of discussions on industry, including the views of pre-Socratic critics, can be traced back to Greek sources. Qutb al-Din is undeniably indebted to these profound ideas within the realms of philosophy, ethics, and spirituality. This study, utilizing a descriptive-analytical approach, seeks to address the following questions: What is the relationship between industry and art in Qutbuddin's works? How does Qutbuddin's conception of industry differ from the contemporary understanding of art? The findings indicate that Qutbuddin's industry was associated with a profession, with a broad application, and he approached it from a perspective of spiritual conduct. According to this sage, the concept of art differs significantly from its contemporary interpretation. Allameh's classification of industries acknowledges that they all stem from knowledge, emphasizing that one lacking manufacturing knowledge would be unable to produce industries. Manuscript profile

The political abuse of language by George Orwell is one of the unique features of an animal farm story and an inseparable part of his likeness. A simple animal farm story is in fact a literary analogy that appears in the struggle for power, usurpation, intimidation, exploitation, hypocrisy, corruption, political plans, and terror from ruling classes that may appear in every form (human or animal ), Refers. In any case, the main thing is that Orwell, with his precise and prose style, has made this issue interesting and fun using live imagery and artistic use of the literary industry. This story with a clear written style, deceptively simple but creative and expressive language, is a source of massive aesthetics and intellectual pleasure and political attitude. Manuscript profile

The present study aims to examine the relationship between cost stickiness and conservatism levels according to the type of industry. This purpose is achieved using the combined data technique and three models of non-operating accruals, the Basu model, and the market value model with a sample consisting of 113 companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE) over the period 2011 to 2020. Findings show that based on the model of non-operating accruals in the automotive, pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries, cost stickiness decreases the level of conservatism. However, in the machinery industry, the relationship is significantly based on this model, but cost stickiness does not reduce the level of conservatism. According to the Basu model in the chemical, food, and basic metals industries, cost stickiness reduces the level of conservatism. But in the pharmaceutical industry and machinery and equipment, there is a significant relationship according to this model, but cost stickiness does not decrease the level of conservatism in companies. Also, based on the market value model in the automotive, chemical, machinery, and basic metal industries, there is a significant association, but cost stickiness does not decrease the level of conservatism in companies.

Stock market activists are trying to find and apply methods so that they can increase the profit of their capital by predicting the future stock price. Therefore, it seems necessary that appropriate, correct and scientific-base principles methods are used to determine the future price of stocks for investors. Economists use econometric methods for forecasting in most cases. Therefore, the aim of this research was to present a new approach in predicting the types of stock movement trends in water-intensive industries using the decision tree approach. The local domain of this research was the companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange active in water-intensive industries and the time do-main was during 2016-2020. In the data section, the research was done by collecting the data of the sample companies by referring to the financial statements, explanatory notes and the stock exchange monthly journal; Based on the systematic elimination method, 72 companies active in water-intensive industries were selected as a statistical sample. In order to describe and summarize the collected data, descriptive and inferential statistics have been used using the decision tree approach; the results showed that by using the decision tree approach, it is possible to predict the profit, industry and stock price trends in water-intensive industries. The results obtained in this research are consistent with the documents mentioned in the theoretical framework of research and financial literature. Manuscript profile

One important issue in data envelopment analysis (DEA) which has been studied by many researchers is returns to scale (RTS). The authors developed DEA models to evaluate the efficiency of two-stage networks in returns to scale variable and introduced a new definition to determine return to scale classification in two-stage networks. The current article proposed an approach for determining the stability region of returns to scale classification in two-stage network DEA. The data were collected from insurance companies in Iran in 2019. We consider the insurance industry process as a two-stage network; the stage of marketing and that of investment. The effectiveness of insurance companies was evaluated, and, after determining the classification of returns to scale, we found a sustainability interval to classify returns to their scale.

Focusing on environmental impact assessment as a new tool to determine the harmful effects of projects on the environment is very necessary. The establishment of cement plants in Iran is accompanied by huge investments that aim to create jobs and have others economic aspects; this trend is on the rise. However, cement plants contribute to environmental pollutions. Therefore, understanding the effect of activities in these potentially polluting centres will greatly help determine future strategies. For the control and prevention of pollution, it is necessary to use a model for the quantitative assessment of environmental impacts. In this study, the Folchi method has been using to recognize and identify environmental pollution by cement plants and effective solutions to decrease the negative impacts of environmental pollution by Shahrood cement plant. According to the results, the contamination generated by the plant, especially for environmental components such as air quality, area landscape, soil of the area, ecology, and area usage are more significant than other environmental components. The EIA results are then obtained and used to assess the sustainability of the complex using Phillips mathematical model. The obtained results indicate that this complex is unsustainable; therefore, preventive environmental activities must be recommended with a preference to reduce environmental damages through its components.

Many manufacturers are confronted with the challenge of successfully implementing their new product development process. This challenge is generally normal, but there is no definite answer. Because every industrial cluster, every market, every production system, every society and every level has its own particular conditions. Therefore, a specific pattern should be considered for each production set, and perhaps for each unique company. These patterns can be similar in nature and type of elements, but they are completely different in terms of the quality of elements and function. For this purpose, in this paper, the results of identifying the components of new product development, especially in the food industry of Fars province, are presented. This research is a qualitative research of content analysis that initially extracted the measures in the process of development of the new product through comprehensive literature review and then was evaluated and corrected based on the opinion of 11 experts in the form of semi-directed interviews.Then, in a six-step process, content analysis was analyzed using the MAXQDA software using a categorization approach. The results show that the four main factors affecting the development of new products in the food industry are: technical development, conceptual development, market development and resource development. These four components are derived from 13 sub-components, 34 selective codes and finally 73 primary codes. Accordingly, it is recommended that any kind of product development in the food industry of the province, taking into account all aspects of this complex, is made. Manuscript profile

The purpose of this study is to provide a model in determining the impact of block-chain technology on supply chain performance in the automobile industry using a fuzzy inference system design. In terms of purpose, this research is considered as applied research. The statistical population is the managers of three automobile industrial companies in Iran, including IranKhodro, Saipa, and ModiranKhodro. The statistical sample size of 36 people was selected by a combination of two methods: Nonprobability sampling (Judgmental) and Snowball sampling. Using library and field studies, the factors and sub-factors of the research have been selected. After library studies, seventeen sub-criteria in three main criteria of attenuating, amplifier, and possibility were identified as a conceptual model. After Gaussian fuzzy, 125 rules are set, based on experts' opinions. According to the results, if the changes in the attenuating interval are more than 0.5, it will reduce the performance, and if it is less than 0.5, it will not have much effect on the performance. If the changes in the amplifier and possibility intervals are less than 0,5, it creates a moderate level of change in performance. And if greater than 0.5, it will increase performance output. To validate and ensure its efficiency, Extreme Condition test has been used. The results of test for three SUB-FIS and all the designed FIS, showed reasonable behavior towards the limit’s values of the inputs, which indicates the validity of the designed model and that means the system has good accuracy and validity of the evaluation.

The country's aviation industry, consisting of aero manufacturing and support companies, is known as the main hub for the maintenance and construction of airfields. Companies that operate and maintain aircraft within the country had no problem with the maintenance and repair of airplanes flying inland and could solve the technical problems of aircrafts with the facilities at their disposal, But after imposing cruel US and Western sanctions, these companies faced problems with supplying the parts and equipment needed to repair the aircraft, which must be acknowledged to be a major problem. Restrictions on access to booklets and technical back-up documents also exacerbated this important issue.

Diversification and structural changes in economies play an important role in the development process of countries. However, the importance of diversity in the manufacture and export of pharmaceutical products has doubled in the last two years due to the direct link between human health and COVID-19 pandemics. One of the practical approaches in this field is the theory of new structuralists, with which it is possible to identify revealed and implied comparative advantages and propose practical solutions to achieve economic diversification. Using product space theory, network science, and countries' export data (2014-2018- five years’ period), it was found that out of 29 pharmaceutical product codes based on six-digit HS codes, Iran has a revealed comparative advantage in export of 4 products, 7 out of 29 product codes have implied comparative advantage and the remaining 18 product codes have no activation potential or zero advantage for export. Based on the combined strategy of the Borda and Copeland methods, the priority of 7 products with implied comparative advantage was determined and the leading countries of each product were determined so that Iran can follow these countries.

AbstractNowadays, one of the necessities for every organization is an assessment and monitoring system in performance management form, monitoring the organization’s plans with a systemic approach at all levels, besides providing the feedback required to pave the way to achieve the predetermined objectives. The present study was aimed at designing a model for an organization’s performance management in the oil industry. It was carried out in two qualitative and quantitative phases by fuzzy Delphi and exploratory factor analysis methods, as well as confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The qualitative phase was progressed by semi-structured interviews with 20 experts in oil industry and academic experts. In the quantitative phase, 241 senior and middle managers were chosen as the statistical sample. Based on the qualitative phase’s results and the fuzzy Delphi method, four main components (regulatory, recognition of criteria and dimensions of performance, executive plan and performance measurement, and continuous performance improvement) and 31 sub-components were identified for the organization’s performance management. The results of the exploratory factor analysis in quantitative phase revealed that 96.366% of the total variance is explained by these 31 components. Furthermore, according to the confirmatory factor analysis results, regulatory component affects the recognition of performance measures dimensions with the size of 0.771; recognition of criteria and dimensions of the performance has an effect with the size of 1.063 on the executive plan and performance measurement; and finally, the executive plan and performance measurement have an effect with the size of 1.056 on the continuous improvement and modification.

In today's world, insurance of productive capital investment and reducing economic risk causes more fundraising and therefore the greatest economic boom cycle. One way to arrive capital investment security is to predict bankruptcy of a business unit. As the Iranian power and energy stock is going to start working by 2012, providing suitable bits of advice to investors would be a priority. This paper proposes a new solution approach for bankruptcy prediction of the Iranian power and energy industries. To do so, an evolutionary algorithm premised on Learning Automata is employed and adapted to the problem. Two sets of firms related to power and energy industries that are listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE) are selected as the training and test data, respectively. The developed algorithm is conducted on both train and test data, and the efficiency of the proposed method is evaluated via several scenarios. It was practically seen in simulations that the learning automata-based algorithm could achieve an accuracy of 91% and 88% over the train and test data, respectively. Besides these, the same data sets are also conducted by other methods such as MDA and Logit, and the obtained results are compared with reality. The yielded results prove the accuracy as well as the efficiency of the proposed solution technique   Manuscript profile

The purpose of the current research is to identify the components of empowerment strategy, transformational leadership and Job Involvement to be used in the strategic integrated model of human resource empowerment in water and wastewater companies of West and East Azarbaijan provinces based on the meta-synthesis approach. Based on the review of the basics and background of the researches, it can be seen that most of these researches have been investigated separately, quantitatively, and correlationally. In other words, none of the conducted studies have used a comprehensive model in the process of empowering human resources, just like the leading research. This research is one of the first studies that can be used as a basis for the development and theoretical expansion of concepts related to the process of human resource empowerment, in the form of a strategic integrated model of human resource empowerment in organizations, especially industrial organizations such as water and wastewater companies in the field of application and research. In this research, qualitative meta-synthesis approach and Barroso and Sandelowski's method were used. In this way, the components related to the integrated model by analyzing domestic and foreign articles in a specific time frame (1392-1400) and (2013-2021) and using the opinion of experts (with experience in the field of water and wastewater industry) and based on The Critical Appraisal Skills Program was identified. In the following, the conceptual model resulting from the meta-synthesis method and the Critical Appraisal Skills Program were presented. Manuscript profile

Plasma technology is one of the new technologies that has found many applications in various industries, including the food industry. Plasma is actually called the fourth state of matter, which is used in sterilization of medical supplies and equipment, equipment used in food industry and food processing. Cold plasma is a dry, non-thermal technology without the need for chemicals, which is able to work continuously at atmospheric pressure, and due to its non-thermal nature, it can be a suitable alternative to other chemical and physical methods used for sterilization and Pasteurization of food. Plasma sterilization techniques are effective, simple and fast (from a few seconds to an hour) and have a lower temperature (less than 70 degrees). The research done in relation to cold plasma has shown that it has the ability to kill microbes and can also destroy vegetative forms, spores and fungi. Also, these studies show that the type of food product, the source of plasma production, the state of exposure of the plasma (direct or indirect) to the desired substance are vital in controlling the effects of cold plasma on antioxidant activity, nutritional value and organoleptic characteristics of food products. Therefore, getting acquainted with this method in order to use plasma technology in the food industry can be an important step in the advancement of science and food industry. Manuscript profile

Enzymes or microorganisms are widely used in food preparation. With the advancement of technology, new enzymes with a wide range of applications and properties have been developed, and new fields of application are still being investigated. Microorganisms such as bacteria, yeasts, and fungi and their enzymes are widely used in many foods to improve flavor and texture and have many economic benefits for industries. Enzymes are also able to remove organic substances from food wastes effectively. Microbial enzymes are preferred sources over plants or animals due to their many advantages such as easy production, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility. However, the use of enzymes in processes has a series of disadvantages. Due to the high price of enzymes, enzymatic processes are one of the most expensive reactions. They are also sensitive to environmental conditions and can easily change their nature and lose their properties. Using a heterogeneous catalyst and immobilized enzymes on a solid support is a method that can make the recycling of enzymes possible. In this research, after examining the structure and types of enzymes, the thermodynamics of enzyme reactions and methods of enzyme stabilization were studied. Finally, recent advances in enzyme technology for food industries and a comprehensive list of enzymes used in food processing, the microbial source of these enzymes, and their wide range of applications are discussed.

Global and regional developments have always made the need for successful exports with a focus on reducing costs and increasing product acceptance vital for any country's economy. One of the effective factors in export success is the valid national brand of the country of origin with the customers of the destination country. One of the industries with local capabilities and strong infrastructure in Iran is the electricity industry. Despite the quality and self-sufficiency in the products of this industry, the lack of a pattern in using the national brand in this industry has become an obstacle to reach regional markets. Accordingly, the main purpose of this study is to "present an effective model on promoting the image of the national brand of Iran."In this mixed research, which has been done sequentially. Researchers tried to identify the factors affecting the promotion of the national brand image (made in Iran) and its dimensions using the opinions of experts. Then, with the help of Maxqda software, the variables and the conceptual pattern of the relationships between them were extracted. In a small part, using the opinions of executives and exporters of high voltage power products, the local status of the research model was examined. The results of PLS software analysis in the structural equation model section showed that among these relationships, the variable "utilization of human, cultural, social and historical manpower capacities" has the greatest impact on strengthening the national brand and the variable "national macro policy" has the least impact.

Achieving company to desired goals significantly depends on strategic planning of the company. Strategic planning provides a framework for managing future vision. On the other hand, there is a strong correlation between strategic planning and the marginal product of the company. Due to the importance of food industry in employment, value added and investment, it seems necessary to review the profitability and factors affecting the existence of strategic planning managers to achieve the goals of this industry. In this study, first, the factors affecting the existence of strategic planning were analyzed using a Probit model and propensity score matching approach. Then, the effect of strategic planning on profitability has been evaluated by estimating average treatment on the treated group. Required data were collected through interviews with 33 marketing managers of Mashhad food industry. A simple random sampling method was used to select the sample size. The results of the Probit model showed that attitude to staff reception, attitude to team participation and job stability of managers have a positive and significant effect on the probability of strategic planning. After matching, the difference in the mean between treatment and control groups was decreased for attitude to staff reception, attitude to team participation, job stability of managers and knowledge of managers about the importance of strategic planning. The results of estimating average treatment on treated group showed that the profitability among the treated group units was 2.5 times greater than those in the control group. Manuscript profile

Insurance is a kind of service and, like all other goods and services, it has a marketplace, Although the insurance market has three pillars of buyer, seller, regulator due to its specific characteristics .regulation is usd to identify where the market fails, And supervision is used to control the failures caused by the above. Therefore, each state, according to its conditions and facilities, uses methods and tools for regulating and monitoring the insurance market. In Iran, after the privatization of the insurance market, control and control methods are used to regulate and supervise the insurance market. In this regard, efficient and effective supervision of the insurance industry along with expanding competition in order to prevent distortions that could seriously hit the industry is one of the main challenges of the country's insurance industry. Therefore, in this paper, we use an analytical-descriptive method to find the answer to the question of what is the structure of regulation and supervision in Iran. And what methods and tools does the government use? An examination of the structure, methodology and tools of regulation and supervision in the Iranian insurance market can reveal one of the important reasons for the lack of profitability and the lack of progress in the insurance industry in comparison with other markets of advanced countries.

In order to obtain an optimum economical system in our country, there is a call to choose the shortest and fastest path for achieving the goal. The system can only achieve this goal, when it could obtain the best and maximum outputs by spending the least inputs. Hence, there is only one way ahead, which is the way of productivity. Among different areas of productivities, human resource productivity plays one of the most significant roles in the whole system productivity because the human resource is the provider of the capital. Hence, the lack of human resources reflects itself as capital demand and economical dependency. The present paper, based on the investigation carried out on the country industry and by considering the impact of computer on the level of human resource productivity in the administrative section, has been attempted to determine the drawbacks of the system. In order to successfully determine the drawbacks, the parameters such as the conditions of securing a job vacancy regarding to the level of computer literacy of the personnel, the speed of fulfilling a task using computers and the condition of the job, the security of computer utilization, the level of output yield from investing in computer utilization and the level of satisfaction from computer utilization, has been taken into account. The mentioned parameters have been ranked according to their maladjustment with computer utilization, from personnel and managers point of view. Consequently, in order to remove these drawbacks and increase human resource productivity, some solutions are presented. For conducting this research, several automobile industries as the investigating cases have been chosen randomly. The final analysis by information collection and data statistical surveys has been carried out and then the outcomes are presented. Manuscript profile

Today, due to the ever-increasing competition between organizations and uncertain environments that have been created by many changes in customer needs, using an efficient supply chain can be considered as a competitive advantage for any organization. In this regard, one solution is lean approach. Lean approach helps to eliminate waste in the supply chain. On the other hand, based on the state of Iran and the abundance of oil and gas resources, the implementation of lean approach in the supply chain of the organizations operating in this field is very important.In order to conduct this study, that has been carried out in one of the largest companies operating in the offshore sector and the objective is to achieve an supply chain. First, by reviewing the literature, eight key factors that lead to the lean of the supply chain were identified and using the tool of the questionnaire and distributing between statistical sample and statistical analysis were effective. Then, using an interpretive structural modeling approach, the research model was developed. In the next step, the model was validated in quantitative and statistical analyzes as well as qualitative and based on it, the factors: financing, leadership and management, and communication with the supplier were identified as the most influential and minimizing the delivery time and flexibility were identified as the most impressive factor. Finally, some suggestions were made to achieve lean procurement process in the offshore sector of the oil and gas industry. Manuscript profile

Since the advent of the Industrial Revolution, Iran, relying on its rich history in the field of art, industry, and trade has put the construction of industrial factories throughout Iran on the agenda and in every city and gift, and often according to the common industry in that region. Industrial architecture is one of the important branches and sources of modern architecture. Strives to build one or more chain factories with the capital of the city's elders and businessmen and to attract the participation and capital of the people. In other words, in an action based on community-based participation, the face and landscape of the city were suddenly changed, and factories were accepted as manifestations of modernism and signs of the new age, along with other urban elements. Unfortunately, after the end of the activities of these industrial institutions and their departure from the city, and the abandonment of factories, many of them were destroyed due to a lack of real knowledge of officials and people of the values hidden in this building and lack of attention of responsible experts and specialists. The process that continues and even their inclusion in the list of national monuments has not been very fruitful and can not be considered an obstacle to prevent their destruction. In this regard, in this study, to be able to properly protect and recreate this heritage, to identify the appropriate approach to the protection of this heritage based on the review of approved documents, and also to recognize and understand the tangible and intangible values of this heritage by grounded theory. Was on the agenda. A method based on and extracting data that has been collected and analyzed regularly during the study of scientific sources. Thus, the result of this integrated protection and regeneration that takes place in the light of attention to culture, considering the category of public awareness of the values of this heritage, as an important matter, integrated protection and recreation of this heritage in the shadow of conscious communities. Will play an important role in its continuation.Explaining this, it should be noted that the industrial heritage, especially the factories that are located in the central part of cities today, after the completion of industrialization and turning them into large forgotten areas inside or around historic cities, from the perspective of people and residents, physical places. And an abandoned and polluted function, spaces for committing all kinds of crimes and offenses, and generally devoid of any inherited values. At first glance, these areas are considered unbearable financial ones, even from the point of view of the executive and political powers. This negative view of the audience and the subsequent cases such as the impossibility of visiting this building and consequently the unfamiliarity of the people with different values of this building deprive the people of a sense of attachment and emotion to this building which is one of the most important reasons for protecting industrial works. In this regard, one of the first protection strategies regarding industrial heritage is to eliminate the negative attitude towards them. The endangerment of industrial heritage is also due to this negative mentality and the problems of the economic structure of the old industrial areas; It should be noted, however, that this legacy can be reminiscent of a pioneering spirit, traditions, and the power of innovation, and can be effective in improving public perceptions and creating a positive image, but so far little use has been made of this industrial heritage potential.In such circumstances, the legacy of industrial society can be saved. The first is to make a relentless effort to preserve this heritage in the collective memory of post-industrial generations. This should be done by understanding the value of this heritage after their disability; In meantime, motivating the feeling and strengthening the sense of pride and sense of responsibility for the protection of industrial heritage, both for the audience and for the officials, will be very effective in preserving the values of industrial heritage. Second, to incorporate this heritage into the daily lives, work, and other cultural or service needs of the residents, using the imagination, initiative, and innovation that we will address in the relevant section.

Gender discrimination and inequality caused by domination over women is a prevalent global phenomenon, and has made them face the limitation of equal access to opportunities, facilities, sources of power and influence in different societies. One of the main solutions of international institutions for this problem is the women's empowerment policy. This policy has also been taken into consideration in Iran and policies and plans have been made by the relevant authorities. However, objective evidence shows that the situation of women is not much favorable. According to the World Economic Forum, in 2019, Iran was ranked 148 among 153 countries in terms of gender discrimination. The aim of this research is to identify the reasons for acceptance of male domination, by women in Iran. To conduct the research, the available quantitative and qualitative data were collected, and to test the hypothesis, the "critical analysis" method was used. The theoretical approach of the article is also based on the principles and concepts of critical theory. The findings of the research show that women's submissiveness is in part formed as a result of the influence of cultural-educational elements. Therefore, as long as the educational system, the media and scientific, cultural and religious platforms that have a general audience, reproduce, justify and promote attitudes, beliefs, and relations based on legitimizing inequality and discrimination, we will see no meaningful change in the status of women in society.

The Shiite jurisprudence, due to its comprehensiveness, is one of the richest and most important sources which can be applied in studying the etiquettes and moralities involved in business. The jurists have mentioned various teachings in form of religious precepts including obligatory, unlawful, recommended and disliked rules in the legal works devoted to business and trading in Islam. Such legal teachings can create certain principles and bases known as professional ethics used in the fields of economics, business and industries. Furthermore, such principles have been reflected in some professional texts, particularly in some chivalry-manifestos presented by certain business. This essay, as a legal research, seeks to indicate the degree of Shiite jurisprudential influence on the emergence of specific principles of professional ethics in different business using a library base and descriptive method and by comparing the legal texts on the one hand and the professional texts on the other. The main question which this essay tries to answer is to know what principles can be inferred from analyzing and comparing the Shiite jurisprudential teachings and the professional texts written in this regard. Based on the findings of this article, the following principles can be extracted from the above mentioned analysis: the obligation of providing livelihood, and giving reverence to business, the necessity of gaining knowledge for business, the necessity of pursuing the example of religious role models in different businesses, the requirement of attending to ethics and spirituality in work, the obligation of adding prayer and devotion in all works. The blessing in work and business can take place in the light of proper businesses which can be achieved through legal analysis and by supervising the jobs as one of the principles of professional ethics in business.

The logistics sector is nowadays known as one of the main pillars of economic development since it is the logistic performance that can have a knock-on effect on economic growth and competitiveness in both international and domestic trade. According to policy makers, implementing coherent and sustainable policies to integrate the supply chain is vital to ignite growth and development not only in economically prosperous countries but also in emerging economies. Economically underprivileged countries are normally those that suffer high costs in the logistics sector owing not only to transportation rates but also to unreliable supply chains that can hamper convergent and competitive functioning in the global value chain. Having realized the vitality of logistics sector, the present descriptive correlational survey aimed at investigating the effect of key components that can have a bearing on improved logistics performance in Post industry. To serve the purpose, a conceptual model of key components, along with five main hypotheses, was proposed based on a thorough literature review and consultation with experts in the post industry. The research population comprised all experts, managers and staff of the Islamic Republic of Iran Post Company from whom a sample of 402 was selected based on the Cochran formula. The collected data were analyzed via Structural Equation Modeling. The findings emerging from the study revealed that all components including knowledge management, human resources organization management, internal and external factors had positive and significant effects on the performance of logistics sector in the post industry. It is suggested that reinforcing the specified components and employment of the designed pattern can help the post industry to take a major step towards improving its logistic performance.

In order to achieve higher performance in organizations, the need for alignment of strategy with contingency variables like Structure and Environment is necessary. Petrochemical Projects in Iran have faced a violent business environment as a result of the Sanctions, change in oil price, exchange rate, and input price of plants. Based on the contingency theory, in order to achieve better performance results in projects as contemporary organizations, it is necessary to consider Business Environment in formulation of project strategy. Therefore, the purpose of the current research was to present the typology of the project strategy based on Business Environment contingency variable influencing the Iranian petrochemical Projects. By reviewing literature we provide a conceptual model as our first-order construct. Using cases study research; we chose to employ qualitative method for improving the model. The case data of 10 projects was selected from the petrochemical Projects. Qualitative data analysis was used for data analysis. In addition to interview, multifaceted data collection including document investigating and questionnaire was also considered. Regard to selecting the Miles and Snow business strategies as baseline of the project strategy, project strategy typologies was plotted in a two-dimensional matrix in terms of fundamental/gradual environmental changes and internal/external project focus. These typologies were redefined for project level through interviews results. Finding suggests that Business Environment difference of projects caused different projects Strategies that required different entrepreneurial, engineering and administrative capabilities to manage projects.

The purpose of this study was interpretive structural modeling of the factors affecting supply chain optimization in the electricity industry. In this study, using a mixed method, a qualitative-quantitative approach was employed to model and verify the factors affecting supply chain optimization. To this end, through content analysis and thematic analysis using Novo software to form thematic networks, a qualitative model of factors influencing supply chain optimality was designed. In order to formulate a basic pattern of the factors affecting supply chain optimality, 23 experts in the electricity industry were selected through purposeful sampling method. In the quantitative section of the study, interpretive structural modeling (ISM) approach and MICMAC analysis were used. The results showed that the initial framework of supply chain optimality model has six dimensions including supply chain performance, supply chain management, supply chain risk management, supply chain quality management, production and operation, and supply chain stability. In the ISM graph, the variables were categorized at different levels, in which the "agency" and "strategy" factors were the highest and "customer satisfaction" was the lowest factor. After MICMAC analysis, the variables were categorized in three groups of independent variables with 11 variables, with four variables and dependent variables with 10 variables.

This article has investigated the effect of information and communication technology (ICT) on the production and total factor productivity by using the analysis of the panel data. To perform this, the analysis was done through the application of the statistical data received from the industrial firms related to Iran's StatisticsCenter using a panel data model to the firm level, based on the latest published information (2006-2007). The study has been conducted with two approaches. In the first one, the effects of information and communication technology on the production through estimating the expanded function of Cobb Douglas, regarding the largeness of the agency and the type of the industry have been noted. Six measuring characteristics related to the amount of implementing information and communication technology in Iranian Industry, within the scope of agencies, have been taken into account. In the second approach, the extended production function of Cobb Douglas has been estimated for the two groups of agencies. The groups included those which applied computers in doing the tasks and those which did not. Then, the amounts of the productivity of total production factors were compared. Accordingly, the effect of ICT on production in the first approach, and its effect on total factor productivity in the second one have been considered. The results indicate that most ICT characteristics confirm the positive effects of the information and communication technology on the productivity to the firm level. Also, the results of the second approach validate the undeniable impact of the so-called technologies on the total factor productivity.   Manuscript profile

Technology transfer and adoption is a complex issue in the third world which, from scientific as well as cultural, political and economical aspects, has involved not only the developing countries but also many of the Western research communities and international organizations for years. The present research investigates the success rate of technology transfer of Screw Compressor industry in Iranian companies. The research is applied from the viewpoint of research objective, but it is descriptive from the viewpoint of methodology. In order to collect data, a researcher-devised questionnaire has been used. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by the experts, and Cronbach's Alpha was used to confirm the reliability of the questions (α = 0.81). The research population consists of the managers of the companies that have transferred Screw Compressor technology in Iran, totaling 20 companies. Techniques of descriptive statistics including frequency table as well as inferential statistics including mean, standard deviation, variance analysis test (ANOVA) and the Duncan's grouping were used to analyze the data. The results show that 78.9 percent of the subjects have cited the role of management and the country's economic conditions, 57.89 percent have cited the effect of the country's environmental situation, 73 percent have cited the role of human resources (experts and technical staff), and 84.21 percent have cited the role of research and development as the main factor in the success or failure of the technology transfer. The average of management factor is 4.1, the research and development factor is 4, the environmental situation factor is 3.7, the economic condition factor is 3.8, and the average of human resources factor is 4.2. The Anova test indicated that there is a significant difference among the factors affecting the success of the technology transfer of Screw compressor industry in Iran. In other words, Duncan's grouping indicated that the management, research and development, and human resources factors have a greater and more significant effect than the environmental situation and economic condition factors.

One of the important items within the sixth development plan is the insurance industry, an industry that can be effective in the establishment and stabilization of resistive economy in the case it moves within the path of development and perfection. Assessment of the efficacy is among the main elements of productivity cycle and functions as a system controlling the other elements of the cycle. In this research, in order to assess the efficacy of private and public insurance companies, a comprehensive model with high accuracy was designed using data envelopment analysis. Due to considering “time” as the determining factor, the mentioned model is referred to as dynamic model of Data Window Analysis.  In this research, by using the literature and expert opinion in research centers, the evaluation criteria were obtained and then using data window analysis during the period from 1385 to 1391, the efficiency of each unit was determined and finally, the units were ranked. Based on the conducted studies, three factors were considered as input, namely, total number of the employees, total number of the branches, and the sum of the assets; and five factors, namely, compensated losses, number of issued insurance cards, number of compensated losses, insurance income generated, and net profit and loss were considered as the model outputs. The findings show that Mellat Insurance Incorporation has perfect efficacy in all the studied years in comparison with the companies Manuscript profile

The results of the present study showed that according to the selective separation analysis index in 1360, the physical-spatial structure of Abadan was of the type of concentration with relative selective separation. The results of the t-test indicate that there is a significant difference between the areas related to the oil industry and other urban areas of Abadan in terms of the texture index. As the results derived from Moran's model showed, by creating more services, the oil industry was able to provide the basis for many dense constructions in its dependent localities compared to other localities and the basis for creating a kind of intense physical concentration and a concentrated and cluster growth pattern. But in 1390, many neighborhoods with a percentage of dense tissue appeared in the structure of the city, causing very dense neighborhoods to be scattered in terms of urban texture in Abadan, and the pattern of physical growth changed from concentrated and clustered in 1360 to a pattern of less concentration (scattered) and randomly change 1390. Also, the results of Pearson's correlation coefficient test show that there is no strong and significant relationship between the immigrants who entered the city and the number of oil industry workers, and the number of construction permits issued. Therefore, from 1360 to 1390, a factor such as the reconstruction of the city after the war, together with other physical-spatial changes, influenced the city's mode and expansion and pushed the city's growth pattern from a cluster to a scattered one.

Iran's strategic position has always been the focus of world powers; But in the twentieth century, with the discovery of oil and the exploitation of vast oil reserves, this attention doubled. Especially since the Allies, such as Britain, the Soviet Union, and the United States, sought to gain access to this vast resource and, by concluding various contracts, amassed vast fortunes. Therefore, one of the significant issues in the field of contemporary history of Iran, especially since the time of the Constitution, is that with the establishment of the parliament as a legislative body in the country, this institution to counter the policies of the ruling system, what is its reaction in It was equal to events such as the oil industry and oil contracts. The purpose of this article is to explain the position of the 14th National Assembly in the nationalization of the oil industry, and the main question is how the 14th National Assembly and the oil negotiations prepared the ground for the nationalization of the oil industry? The findings of the present study show that after the dictatorship of Reza Shah Pahlavi, the National Assembly came closer to its real position from the fourteenth period onwards and the deputies were able to move in a relatively open political atmosphere in the face of important events in the country, including the crisis, Oil concessions and alienating the Allies from it, to take a free stand.

This article explores how different factors influence the number and dynamics of firms in supplier-dominated industries. These industries are typically traditional, small, and depend on external suppliers for innovation. The article uses a hybrid simulation of system dynamics and agent-based modeling to capture the realistic assumptions that firms do not have complete market information and make decisions based on simple heuristics and past and current conditions. The article conducts experiments to examine how initial conditions, machine life, economic parameters, producer optimism, production growth rate, and demand elasticity affect the entry and exit patterns and the number of firms in the industry. The article uses variables such as the time to reach the peak number of firms, the number of firms at the peak, and the number of firms at the end of the simulation period to represent the shape of the industry distribution. The experiments show that the initial number of firms, demand elasticity, machine life, and financial resources have the most significant effects on the distribution shape, while other factors such as economic growth also have some nonlinear effects.

This research compares different approaches for achieving precise predictive maintenance (PdM) results from CNC machine tools. For smaller enterprises, it is crucial to be able to upgrade their existing industrial machines with industry 4.0 systems, as the global marketplace becomes more competitive. The evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the creation of cyber-physical systems (CPS) in the industry has enabled big data generation. New maintenance methodologies have emerged where decisions are driven by mathematical models and data analysis. In this study, a low-cost strategy is used as a baseline to establish system accuracy. Results are then compared to a more comprehensive strategy outlining the potentials of these retrofit predictive maintenance (PdM) systems. Numerous data modeling techniques were employed to increase system accuracy while focusing on the remaining useful life (RUL) of the cutting tool. Through analysis of the selected strategies favorable correlation is evident between predicted results and physical tool wear, optimal accuracy of 95.68% is achieved by utilizing hybrid data modeling techniques. The study highlights the possibilities for enterprises looking to adopt PdM strategies and consequently capitalize on the potential of Industry 4.0. Manuscript profile

In recent years, attention to renewable energy and distributed generation has increased due to increased energy demand and environmental pollution. To this end, in the new power grid structure, consumers can also play a producer role. Considering that the number of prosumers in this structure is much more than traditional power networks, the need for a secure, transparent, fast, scalable platform for energy exchanges has greatly increased. Blockchain technology can provide such a platform due to its unique properties. Although there are many blockchain-based platforms in different countries in enregy field, but in Iran there is no such platform. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper is to design and implement a local pilot platform for peer-to-peer blockchain-based energy exchange, taking into account the specific conditions of Iran's electricity grid. The macro platform architecture is designed based on the concept of Minimum Viable Product (MVP) considering functional and non-functional requirements in the form of unified modeling language (UML) diagrams. The proposed platform pilot has been implemented in the form of 4 main elements including smart contract, user interface, blockchain platform, and blockchain and non-blockchain databases and has been evaluated and tested using different scenarios. These tests mainly include the unit test and the integrity test, which were successfully performed on the platform. This platform has been designed and implemented for the first time in Iran in accordance with the Ethereum protocol and based on microservice architecture. In addition to the ability to integrate with Ethereum-based systems, this platform is scalable due to its modular design. Manuscript profile

Although crowdsourcing is a new business principle in many tourism programs in the modern world, its basic mechanism remains unknown in the tourism industry, especially in Iran. This study aimed to comprehensively determine a crowdsourcing program in the tourism industry at both technical and conceptual levels (i.e., nature, reasons, challenges, and strategies). Cluster analysis for understanding the conceptual framework of the challenges that exist in the field of crowdsourcing in the tourism industry and finally knowing the strategies introduced in crowdsourcing in the tourism industry will help the researchers to develop a comprehensive cognitive framework in this field. This study is qualitative in nature and uses a meta-synthesis approach and a library-based method for collecting the required data. In order to carry out the research, after formulating the research questions, a systematic search based on the related key terms was conducted using the target databases including EBSCO Business Source Complete and Web of Science. The results of the study showed that the pattern of research in crowdsourcing challenges in the tourism industry can be determined in four clusters namely technology, human beings, strategies, and third-generation studies. Moreover, the strategies presented by the researchers in the successful implementation of a crowdsourcing project in the tourism industry can be implemented in four categories of strategies related to vision and strategy, human capital, infrastructure, and external environment. The results of this research can be used as a road map for future studies and provide a more comprehensive understanding of creating crowdsourcing platforms in the tourism industry.

The expansion of statistics and the possibility of using time series information in tourism economics studies have led to the increasing use of time series models in research of tourism economics; also, due to the high impact of various factors such as disease, war, sanctions, political events, economic shocks and many other international and national shocks on the tourism industry, structural changes occur in this industry which make the common results in time series surveys unreliable. To solve this problem, structural break points in tourism industry studies should be identified to be the basis for researchers' modeling in strategic studies and policy-making. The present study aimed to determine the structural break points in the Iranian tourism industry, using quarterly data from spring 2013 to summer 1399. All these tests have confirmed the existence of a structural break in the fall of 2019. However, if the coefficient decreases significantly, only the fall of 2019 would be recognized as a breakpoint in the Iranian economy. Due to the high volume of tourism and the growth of this sector in the spring and summer of 2019, it is expected that in the annual surveys, 2020 will be the only year that a structural break has occurred in tourism in Iran. Political events such as the Saudi Embassy or the referendum in Iraq Kurdistan, the signing of the UN Security Council, or the imposition of severe sanctions on Iran's economy have virtually failed to bring about structural changes in Iran's time series tourism models. There are more pervasive factors such as the Covid-19 epidemic that have caused a structural break in Iranian tourism.   Manuscript profile

The tourism industry in today's world is considered as one of the economically profitable industries and the creation and exchanging means of culture. Measures should be taken to attract tourists and introduce the buildings. These measures include advertising, book printing, publishing brochures, and billboards for better access of tourists to the desired areas. Tourist boards play a special role. In a way, it can be said that these signs are eloquent language to guide a tourist and a good guide to attract the tourist, a reliable guide to get to the desired place; signs are not only a guide but also carry a brand of advertising. Thus, their shape, size, color, installation location, and multilingualism, all are effective in the structure of the signboard; and the tourism sign depicts the cultural identity and personality of an area. The purpose of this article is to investigate the effectiveness of the use of tourism signs in the city of Isfahan and the development of tourism in this city. The method of this research is applied based on the purpose and based on nature is descriptive-analytical. The statistical population of this research includes all citizens over 18 years old in Isfahan in 1997 who were randomly sampled. The necessary data were collected through a questionnaire. The results of this study show that more than 62% of foreign tourists and more than 52% of local tourists in their comments have described this situation as weak and very poor. Manuscript profile

Experiences play an important role in people's lives and contribute to a person's mental health. Most of these experiences take place in the activities that people do in their spare time (Tan and Chang, 2016). From a consumer’s perspective, leisure tourism can be a source of memorable experiences (Menga and Hanb, 2019). Tourism activities are considered the fourth part of human activities after agriculture, industry, and services and can be called invisible exports that can create a suitable platform for friendship and understanding between nations and peace without polluting the human environment and brought peace to the people; for this reason, tourism is also called the white industry (Rabbani et al., 2020). Tourist attractions are known as a field of study in the field of tourism. The value of these attractions is evident in the strategies that governments develop to make a benefit, as they can be mentioned as the main assets for the development of tourism destinations (Liask et al., 2013). Also, managing the tourist experience can lead to more tourists’ knowledge and their inclinations and interests, and provide grounds for attracting more tourists, which in turn can have desirable consequences in the form of the value of tourist participation. Due to the importance of the tourism industry and the expansion of studies with a managerial and practical nature in this regard, the present study has been conducted to achieve a model of antecedents and consequences of the tourist experience. For this purpose, first, the method of combining the antecedents and consequences of customer’s experience as well as the experiences of management approaches in the tourism industry (separately) was identified, and with the guidance of 10 experts and marketing and tourism experts and their opinions, and lastly, a questionnaire was prepared. 440 Iranian tourists who had traveled to Turkey, Malaysia, Azerbaijan, and the UAE in the last 5 years (1396 -1400) were distributed. In the first stage, each of the structures of the proposed model, in terms of being one-dimensional in a separate measurement model by Klein's (2005) method was investigated so that, firstly, the factor load of the indicators was more than 0.5; not more than 0.85. In the second stage, the validity and reliability of the structures were evaluated and Cronbach's alpha, structural validity (CR), mean explained variance, construct validity, convergent validity, and divergent validity were calculated and evaluated. After the assessment tools were finally approved at each stage, the research model was developed and tested. The result of the present study is to model the antecedents and consequences of the tourist experience using a mixed-method (qualitative and quantitative) which is one of the innovations of this research, which can be used by managers and industry activists and the  development of tourism-related activities on a global scale.   Manuscript profile

According to the World Tourism Organization (WTO), Iran held the fifth and tenth rank of natural and historical attractions respectively. Therefore, the survey of performance levels of tourists in relation to tourist sites, in terms of appropriate management and control of their behavior and promoting general awareness at various levels has a significant role in controlling tourism terrorism and promoting national security, and this provides the development of the country as far as economic, social, cultural, political and physical issues are concerned. No tourist is interested in visiting unsafe destinations. Therefore, it is necessary to know that "tourism security" is not only the protection of tourists against thieves and kidnappers; but also it requires road and flight safety, formalities, visa issuance, full coverage of travel insurance, law enforcement, business activity and restrictions. All of these factors are security issues of tourism which affect the success or failure of tourism industry in the world. Finally, with proper management and planning in the field of tourism security, more tourists can be attracted to the country, so that if this development strengthens the positive aspects of tourism in socio-economic and environmental dimensions, it will also lead to sustainable development of the regions as well as interactions because of which an area becomes bio-environmentally habitable, economically durable, socially united, and physically beautiful and worth visiting. This research is an analytical-descriptive study which is based on reasoning, library resources, documents and statistical data are obtained from various centers. Scientific web sites have been used and the necessary data have been gathered in different ways. The result of the analysis confirms that national security in all parts of the world, including Iran, has a direct relationship with tourism development and tourist’s attraction. Manuscript profile

The prosperity of tourism in any geographic location, along with positive and negative socioeconomic consequences, has environmental impacts which if continued could cause irreparable damages. Sustainable environmental or ecological tourism is the expansion of the tourism industry and the attraction of tourists to the country using the existing resources in such a way that, while responding to the economic, cultural, social and legal requirements of society and the expectations of tourists, unity and integrity may be achieved. Cultural identity and environmental health can balance and provide the welfare for people and their guests in a balanced and continuous manner to an optimum level. The main design of the study is based on the analytical approach in a library-based and survey which analyzes the information related to the theoretical foundations of tourism industry; then, the foundations of sustainable tourism and its relationship with the factors shaping ecological tourism have been considered with the aim of promoting tourism collections in the understudy area based on the existing theories. Finally, the process of forming the ecological tourism complexes has been distinguished. The results of the research showed that the formation of ecological tourism complexes around natural-historical attractions in our country can be an effective step in sustainable tourism development; also, if "physical tourism planning" in Iran is done in a systematic way, it can create job opportunities and increase the value of currency.

Research on the hazardous waste of paint sludge is mostly focused on recovering the sludge and pollution control with methods such as solidification. This research aimed to study the comparison of biological removal of zinc from paint sludge using a native Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans PTCC 1692. Samples of water-based paint sludge were collected under aseptic conditions. Isolation of endogenous strains was performed in the Bushnell-Haas (BH) medium from paint sludge, and A. thiooxidans PTCC 1692 was cultured in the medium 119. Optimization of the process parameters for the biological removal of zinc was performed using the design of the experimental (DOE) method for both organisms. The results showed that A. thiooxidans is capable of biological removal of zinc with a higher pulp density and with a more extended bioleaching period. The results of the chemical analysis show the removal of zinc metal by 57.76% compared to P. aeruginosa by 36.39%, and, the removal of other metals such as Cr, Ni, Pb, and Cd were observed in the residual sludge from the process. Energy Disperse X-ray analysis (EDX) showed the more favorable effect of this bacterium in reducing heavy metals. Manuscript profile

The contemporary history of Iran in years 1951-53 is having great importance for several reasons. One of the important aspects of this period is the people’s movement for nationalization of oil and the reaction of the government of the United States about it. The present article by emphasis on the interests of the United States wants to examine the factors which led to change of the United States attitude towards the nationalization of oil industry and Dr. Mosaddegh’s government. Contrary to prevailing view that the fear of the expansion of power of the communism was the main factor for change of the United States attitude towards Dr. Mosaddegh’s government, the paper is of the view that the strategic location of Iran and getting a share in the oil resources of Iran was the main consideration for the United States. The United States took advantage of the situation in the peak of Britain’s dispute with Iran on oil and by an opportunistic stand on occasions supported Iran’s position in getting her rights but when the British declared their readiness to share the interests in Iran with them on the basis of balance of interests, the American accepted the British view point and practically were prepared to cooperate with the plan of coup d’état. The article makes use of historicaldocumentary method for analyzing the issue. The focus on this issue is of great importance because the repercussion of the relations of this period cast shadow on Iran- America relations. Manuscript profile

This study investigates the impact of social-cultural barriers on industry development in small and medium cities of Lorestan province (with emphasis on small and conversion industries). The method of this survey research is the data collection tool of the questionnaire, the statistical population is 12022 people, the sample size is 483 people, the sampling method is available first as a class, then as a quota and finally as a random sample. The theoretical framework is based on the theories of Rosenstein, Ortsley, McClelland, Bourdieu, Coleman, Michael Hashter, Nathan Glaser, David Meyer and Guenon, and the total reliability is 0.7. Findings Based on the results of regression statistical test for each hypothesis, respectively, the variable of migration (-0.537), the existence of ethnic differences (-0.329), the existence of inefficient traditions (-0.151) Lack of incentive to progress (-0.087) have a negative effect on industrial development. Therefore, migration has the greatest effect and lack of motivation for progress has the least effect on industrial development. Also, the reduction of social capital is ineffective in regression weights. So, while confirming the research hypotheses, it is clear that socio-cultural barriers have a negative effect on the development of industry in small and medium cities of Lorestan province (with emphasis on small and conversion industries).

عملکرد سازمانی یک مسئله پیچیده است با توجه به اینکه عملکرد پدیده چند وجهی است اجزاء آن ممکن است اولویت های مدیریتی متمایز داشته و حتی ممکن است متقابلا ناسازگار باشند. به تازگی، رویکرد متوازن (BSC) به عنوان مفهوم ارزیابی موثر چند معیاری در سنجش عملکرد سازمانی توجه زیادی دریافت کرده است. اگر چه چارچوب مفهومی BSC به طور گسترده ای در جامعه کسب و کار پذیرفته شده است، موضوع روش مناسب اجرای چارچوب باقی می ماند. از این رو، این مقاله سیستم ترکیبی خبره BSC ،تصمیم گیری آزمایشی و ارزیابی آزمایشگاهی (DEMATEL) و سیستم استنتاج فازی (FIS) را برای ارزیابی شرکت های تولید مواد غذایی توسعه داده است. برای این هدف این مقاله نظریه گراف بر اساس روش (DEMATEL) برای تعیین معیار انتقادی از دیدگاه  BSC را اعمال کرد. نتایج نشان می دهد که "سود"، "رضایت مشتری"، "ارتباطات مشتری""نوآوری"، مدیریت" و "سازمان به عنوان مجموعه مدیریت" بیشترین اهمیت را در ارزیابی عملکرد دارد. در مرحله بعد این معیار  به شکل قانون فازی براساس سیستم استنتاج با متغیرهای زبانی و توابع عضویت توسط کارشناسان تنظیم می شود. نتایج حاصل از روش پیشنهادی در صنایع غذایی استان گیلان کاربرد آن در  ارزیابی شرکت های مواد غذایی را نشان می دهد.

سازمان های پروژه محور در صنایع بالادستی سهم زیادی از منابع ملی را در اختیار دارند و نقش مهمی در توسعه یک کشور ایفا می کنند. ارزیابی عملکرد سازمان های پروژه محور می تواند به مدیران کمک کند تا از ورودی ها به طور موثر استفاده کنند و راه خود را برای دستیابی به اهداف هموار کنند. برای ارزیابی عملکرد سازمان های پروژه محور، شاخص های کمی و کیفی زیادی وجود دارد. محاسبه کارایی از طریق تحلیل پوششی داده ها (DEA) یک شاخص رایج برای ارزیابی عملکرد در چنین شرکت هایی است. در مدل سنتی DEA داده‌های واضح مورد نیاز است در حالی که در دنیای واقعی، بیشتر داده‌ها نادقیق و نامطمئن هستند. یکی از دلایل اصلی عدم قطعیت مربوط به اطلاعات غیر کمی، ناقص و دست نیافتنی است که باعث ادغام منطق فازی و مجموعه های فازی در مدل های مختلف مانند DEA می شود.ایدۀ اصلی پژوهش حاضر ترکیب رویکردهای کمی و کیفی در ارزیابی عملکرد برای بهره‌گیری از هر دو و دستیابی به نتایج دقیق‌تر است. از این رو، در این مقاله، یک مدل ترکیبی مبتنی بر تحلیل پوششی داده های فازی (FDEA) و مدل تعالی پروژه (PEM) برای ارزیابی عملکرد در سازمان های پروژه محور پیشنهاد شده است. ابتدا ارزیابی عملکرد توسط مدل PEM داده های فازی انجام می شود. سپس پیاده سازی فازی DEA در مدل PEM انجام می شود که در آن ورودی ها و خروجی های مدل FDEA معیارهای مدل PEM هستند. مدل هیبریدی پیشنهادی برای ارزیابی 30 شرکت پتروشیمی در ایران استفاده شده است. مقایسه نتایج هر دو مدل نشان‌دهنده ضریب همبستگی تقریباً 90/0 در سطح معنی‌داری 01/0 است که نشان‌دهنده همبستگی مناسب بین دو مدل است.

The present studt deals with presenting a new method for developing an efficient vision and mission for the aerospace industry. This method is based on the knowledge of future research. Moreover, the advantages of creating a vision and an efficient mission are discussed. After that, the definition of the infrastructure of the mission is stated and a four-fold strategy is stated in this field for the aerospace industry. In addition, the new method of resistant cycle and aerospace industry corridor is proposed based on future research. The above method has proposed a resistant cycle for the ecosystem of the aerospace industry in the face of structural uncertainties. Economic, political and social uncertainties are effective in not realizing the missions of the vision. The present article has pointed out that the upgraded structure for defining the vision and mission is not a one-sided structure of macro-to-micro policies, however it should constantly adapt to the changes in the environment around each of the sub-sectors such as economy, politics, society, knowledge and technology that they have a feedback loop and can constantly receive feedback from the surrounding environment and lead to the improvement of the definition of vision and mission. Along with identifying the needs of the society, it is necessary to create the needs for the future and this issue depends on the science of future research and a cycle resistant to uncertainties. Therefore, this article has overcome the management problems of the aerospace industry by explaining the corridor of the aerospace industry based on future research and designing a cycle resistant to uncertainties  Manuscript profile

Ophiopogon japonicus is a perennial, ornamental foliage plant, whichbelongs to the family Liliaceae. It has a high demand in the local andinternational export market due to the presence of glossy white-green stripped lanceolate leaves. Improved leaves and plants of O. japonicus will be more popular in the floriculture industry. Hence, objective was to investigate the growth responses of O. japonicus for best potting media and fertilizer treatments. Shoots of O. japonicus trimmed up to 4 cm from the root-shoot junction were potted in two potting media as soil type 1, coir dust, compost and sand as 1:1:1 and soil type 2, sand, coir dust 1:1 by volume. High nitrogenfertilizer, balanced fertilizer and high phosphorous fertilizer were applied as foliar sprays in three concentrations (×1/2, ×1 and ×2 times of the RBG recommended dosages) and distilled water was used as the control. There was a significant (p<0.05) effect of growing media on the O. japonicus leaf length, plant fresh weight, shoot dry weight, root dry weight, number of leaves and number of shoots. However, there was no significant difference between the control and fertilizer treatments on leaf length, shoot dry weight, number ofleaves and number of shoots while there was a significant difference among fertilizer treatments on plant fresh weight and root dry weight. Most effective potting media and fertilizer treatment for O. japonicus were sand:coir dust media (1:1) and Royal Botanic Gardens, Sri Lanka-recommended dosage (RBG) of fertilizer treatments (high nitrogen (2.5 g/L), balanced (1.25 g/L) and high phosphorous fertilizer (2.5 g/L), respectively.

The future of biomass energy in the global energy system depends on many major factors, among others on the attitude of society in rural areas to the biomass energy and the renewable energy resources. Biomass energy plays increasing role in rural areas with its contribution to the self sufficiency of people in the countryside. The paper deals with the analysis the opportunities of utilization of biomass energy sources giving example of a Hungarian study area and to study the possibilities of the cooperation and management regarding biomass industry in a certain rural region. Furthermore, the aims of this analysis are on the one hand to predict the potential renewable energy of the Eger Micro-region and on the other hand to research the theoretical possibilities of a value added chain in biomass industry. The main conclusion of the paper is that economic benefits can be locally embedded through local distribution of profit generated by sales of energy or financial benefits from energy saved by efficiency activities local training and employment opportunities and local shareholding. Furthermore shareholding can also involve individuals resident outside of the local community, forming part of a more spatially dispersed ‘community of interest’ involved in, and supportive of, the development.

In addition to establishment of print industry of Iran in Tabriz, foreign books have been translated into Farsi for the first time in this city, so this city is the pioneer of translation, modern composition or simple writing have been tought by Talebov, one of the son worthy of this city. We owe authority of the first encyclopedia in the Islamic world, writing the first novel, children literature, national journalism to pioneer and powerful humans raised from Tabriz. Several facts have caused to appear these changes, like increasing foreign relationships and traveling to European and neighbor countries. And also, meeting new industries and technologies, translation of published works in this fields, elite and pioneer people’s birth in Iranian society are the presence of sending students to European countries. To be in the way of Silk Road, being neighbor with Ottoman, Russia and European countries, traveling foreign merchants and politicians, and also living Crown Prince in this city have made Tabriz to one of the most important Iranian cities in contemporary history of Iran. And we can say that in this period of history especially in recent two centuries, this proud city is not only a usual city, but also a museum of epics. And, it is pioneer in several political, social, artistical, literary and scientific fields, and finally the entrance of modern information tools in the city led to awaken the Iranians and to Constitution Movement (Mashroote).

Paying attention to the industry, especially the textile industry, as one of the oldest industries in Iran, has been of special importance from the beginning until now. Right and wrong policies in historical periods have caused this basic industry in the country to experience various ups and downs at certain points in history. The study of the textile industry in Iran and Turkey is very important. Iran is a country that starts the process of industrialization earlier, but then Turkey, by surpassing production and innovation in this industry, was able to snatch the ball of competition and achieve high figures in the production of textiles. Now, the study of this process and the processes and policies that have been carried out can clarify the results of what has happened in the industry scene of these two countries and how the results have been able to bring a lot of currency to Turkey annually. In fact, achieving a new version of policy in the textile industry can to some extent solve the problems caused by the unfamiliarity of policymakers in the field of textiles. In this article, the methods of reviewing documents and internet search and library studies have been used.   Manuscript profile

The industrial sector and its growth is one of the most important performance indicators of the economy at the macro level and achieving a higher growth rate in this sector is one of the important goals of any economic system. Therefore, it is important to study the factors that affect the development of the industrial sector and improve the predictability of this sector. A review of the literature on the development of industry in the economy shows that one of the most important factors affecting its development is the stability of macroeconomics in both economic and political sectors, so that economists today have accepted that economic and political stability is a necessary condition for growth. It is high and continuous in the industry sector of the economy. In this regard, in the present study, the role of political and economic uncertainties on improving the predictability of industrial sector activities in Iran during the period 1991 to 1399 has been investigated. GMM generalized torque method was used to analyze the data. Findings showed that economic and political uncertainties have had negative and significant effects on the development of the industrial sector in Iran. It was also observed that considering political and economic uncertainties can improve the predictability of industrial sector activities. Accordingly, it is concluded that macroeconomic and policy policies in the country should be implemented a way that does not harm economic stability and thus the development of the industrial in the country.

The aim of the current research is to obtain the demand function of production inputs in the petrochemical industry. In order to test the relationship between the variables, the information of the time period 2015-2018 has been used. The statistical population of this research is the companies that produce petrochemical products. The results of this research showed that the relationship between the share of raw material production factors in the total cost paid to production factors and the relative price of labor, raw materials and raw materials and products is positive and its relationship With the relative price of machines. and energy is negative. The results of substitution elasticities also show that capital with labor, raw materials with labor and capital with energy are alternative inputs, capital with raw materials, raw materials with energy are complementary inputs. In the estimated cross elasticities, see It was found that the price elasticity of raw materials is higher than other inputs in terms of absolute value, in other words, the demand for raw materials is more sensitive to price changes than other inputs. The inputs of capital, labor and energy are in the next ranks in this field. Also, the absolute value of the numerical value of the price elasticities of all inputs is less than one, and therefore it can be said that the demand for all inputs is inelastic. Manuscript profile

The business and investment climate is a political, institutional, and behavioral environment that affects returns and risks associated with economic activities and investments. The results of model estimation in this group of countries show that with increasing oil resources and revenues, due to the strong dependence of these countries on oil revenues, government revenues and bank liquidity also increase, and given that most of these countries are dependent on consumption. They have a strong demand for imports, so with the increase of oil revenues, the total demand in the economy of these countries increases, and due to the lack of productive power and lack of attention to business and entrepreneurship, with increasing demand by consumers of goods and services, the level General prices (inflation) also increase.Given the importance of business environment and its impact on the financial sector in the economy, this article examines the business environment on the development of the banking industry in two categories of "newly industrialized (NICs) and OECD selected countries" and "OPEC and BRICS countries.

The main objective of the study was to investigate the effect of financial development on the financing of companies listed on the stock exchange, which are related to the automotive-related industries. To this end, the effects of four indicators of financial development, along with control variables such as profitability, liquidity and size of the company, have been investigated in the form of two regression models on two variables related to financing, namely, proportional relationship of both long-term debt and short-term debt to total assets. So that the two models, with the panel data taken from the 50 companies involved in automotive industry and active in stock exchange between the years 2011 to 2016, are assessed using fixed effects. The results show that stock market development has a positive and significant effect on the ratio of long-term debt to total assets. Meanwhile, the effect of the index on the stock market activity is more than the magnitude of the impact of the index relative to its size. However, the effect of the development of the banking sector on this ratio is negative and the effect of the indicator on the banking system activity is more than the magnitude of the impact of the index relative to its size.   Manuscript profile

First, isolated fungi were investigated from enzyme activity by measuring the clear zone on pectin medium and enzyme production in submerged medium containing pulp and pectin apple as the sole carbon sources. The best strain was selected for enzyme activity. Then, were studied kinetic various factors of pectinase. Results: 80 fungal were isolated from these sources that 13 of these fungi were positive pectinase activity with creation a clear zone around the colonies. The pectinase activity of the 13 (%16) isolates was assayed using apple pomace and pectin as the sole carbon sources in submerged culture fermentation. The most pectinase activity (0.4 U/ml) was related to the Aspergillus niger AN64 that was identified by morphological characterization. Giving the highest enzyme production rate in 72h. optimum temperate and PH for pectinase activity and stability were 30° C, pH 5. Temperature (20-50) and pH (3-7) ranges were obtained for pectinase stability. Ag1+ , Mg2+, Mn2+ and surface active detergents such as ammonium sulphate, yeast extract, EDTA and citric acid enhanced the pectinase activity. Conclusion: This strain of A. niger AN64 can be used in fruit juice industry because tolerance in a wide range of the acidic pH and various temperatures. Manuscript profile

Field and Aims: Dispute resolution in fiduciary contracts are often found in large construction projects to help the parties resolve or avoid their disputes and, ideally, prevent them from turning into international construction arbitration. The special feature of international construction contracts justifies the need to develop standard methods and international dispute resolution procedures. Therefore, the evolution of dispute resolution mechanisms in international construction projects and the protection of the economic interests of the parties are among the most important concerns of both sides of the construction contract, which is foreseen by the International Union of Consulting Engineers in the sample contracts. The goal is how Fidic has been able to manage it by adopting multi-layered methods to prevent disputes or in the event of disputes.Method: In this research, the descriptive-analytical method was used and the library method was chosen as the method of collecting information and materials.Finding and Conclusion: The findings of the research show that Fidic has tried to be an effective mechanism for quick dispute resolution by providing multi-layer models in sample contracts in terms of the agreement of the parties in choosing one of the dispute resolution methods; But this procedure will be valid only if the parties act in good faith and are willing to implement the decisions made voluntarily.

The basic aim of this paper is to identify the effectiveness of credit banking Expansion on the value added of manufacturing industry sector. For empirical test ,we used vector autoregressive model that shows how different shocks affect on industry growth in the specific period and how can it explain the volatility of value added growth rate in industry sector .By using the method of variance decomposition, the findings Based on impulse response function indicates that economic growth in manufacturing industry sector much is dependent to credit banking which allocated to this sector. In addition, inflation and the number of employee as other variables of model have same effects on industrial growth rate but lesser than credit Expansion in banking system. The result of variance decomposition analysis show that banking system credit allocation to industry sector is important factor that influences growth of product and explain the volatility of variation in short and long term. The most volatility is originated from inflation and level of industrial employee in short term,but in long term the outcomes is opposite. Manuscript profile

Abstract Hyrocarbonic product including Oil & Gas export revenues play a central role in economy , social & political stability as well as the security of exporting countries . These nations are mainly categorized as developing countries and are heavily dependent on capital, management & the advance trchnology of Oil majors for exploitation of their underground reserves. On the other side the foreign Oil companies (FOCs) require security and a promising long term profit to secure any investment in host countries. These two groups mainly come together and enter in to agreement within what we refer to as Oil & Gas contracts in which the parties stipulate and agree on all the terms and conditions as well as their financial expectations thereof. Factors such as restrictions posed by legal systems, public’s historical background, economical and political status of the nation a long with several others may motivate or discourage a country as to adopt or avoid a certain type of contract. Adopting a certain type of contract may in long run affect the outcomes drastically either towards or against interests of host countries. This research, after analyzing , various finance project types conventional in Oil & Gas industry, comparing their merits and pitfalls and reviewing criticisms ; aims at proposing apprpaiate options for Iran. Using the Analytical Hierachy Process (AHP) , this research compares Buy-back , Concession and Production Sharing Contracts (PSC) together to find the optimum contractual method in finance and project implemention in oil upstream section for both independent and Iranian joint fields . the most important decision-making criteria for making contract in upstream section for oil and gas industry are classified to “Befor” and “After” contract approval. the criteria were selected by Delphi method. To do this research , two questioners were filled out by professionals in oil industry in two stages and the data was analyzed by EC software. The analysis of data indicates that the Buy-back are preferable than PSCs  and Concession contracts in independent fields (63.4%) and the PSCs are preferable than Buy-back  and Concession contracts in joint fields Manuscript profile

Abstract Environmental protection and sustainable environmental development are important concerns of human societies and the main unquestionable. Banks, considering the environmental risks in financing companies, play an essential role in protecting the environment and moving towards a green economy. As one of the dimensions of green banking, green financing is an innovative financial instrument that tries to improve the environmental balance with the industries' development and economic growth. The present research aimed to design and analyze the financing model of companies through the Iranian banking industry in establishing a sustainable environment, which has a three-step approach. First, by interviewing 16 experts and encode, 77 components in the form of 21 categories were identified based on Grounded data theory, and the model related to design and hypotheses were identified. And next, the structural equation modeling method was used to evaluate the model-fitting and hypotheses test, which showed the significant results of the measuring and structural models, the optimal model fitting, and hypotheses confirmation. Then, by using the interpretive structural modeling method, the components of green financing were prioritized, in this stage, 20 components with the highest frequency of code were entered, and finally, the priority of the components was recognized in 6 levels.

 AbstractLack of liquidity management of banks is one of the most important risks for any bank and lack of attention to liquidity risk leads to irreparable consequences. Preventing liquidity risk requires a comprehensive measurement method but liquidity risk is complicated issue, and this complexity makes it difficult to provide a proper definition. In addition, defining liquidity risk determinants and formulation of the related objective function to measurement its value is a difficult task. To address these problems and assess liquidity risk and its key factors, in this study we propose a model that uses artificial neural networks and Bayesian networks. Design and implementation of this model includes several algorithms and experiments to validate the model. In this paper, we have used Levenberg-Marquardt and Genetic optimization algorithms to teach artificial neural networks. We have also implemented a case study in Bank Mellat to demonstrate the feasibility, efficiency, accuracy and flexibility of the research liquidity risk measurement model.  Manuscript profile

Abstract Purpose: Today, heavy competition in the petrochemical industry among countries requires that attention to the brand issue be given priority, especially companies related to the petrochemical industry in Iran due to the sanctions issues, can move by creating a strong industrial brand to protect their customers. In the present research, the design of the brand performance model in the petrochemical industry was discussed. Method: The research was conducted in a mixed method. The statistical population of the research included sales and marketing experts of 7 petrochemical companies, and 7 experts from these companies and 238 sales and marketing experts were considered as members of the statistical sample. By conducting interviews with brand experts in the petrochemical industry, as well as library studies, concepts and basic components of brand performance were identified. Among the 28 components identified from library studies, 11 components were identified in the expert analysis as components of the brand performance model, which were the basis of the analysis. Findings: The results of the confirmatory factor analysis showed that among the 11 components mentioned, only 7 components significantly explain the performance of the brand. These 7 components are: sales efficiency, innovation in response, modeling, brand-oriented organizational capital, organizational competitive strategies, product quality, production and sales volume. Also, the results showed that the performance of the brand in the petrochemical industry is not in a favorable state in terms of innovation in customer response and production and sales volume. Conclusion: One of the consequences of improving the performance of the brand in this industry, according to the research model, can be mentioned the improvement of the quality level of the products, meeting the market expectations, increasing the commitment and loyalty of customers, favorable financial performance and the development and prosperity of the industry.

Abstract The second social transformation in Iran after the constitution revolution is the oil nationalization movement and its relevant developments. Oil industry nationalization movement was the most important anti-colonial movement in the Middle East during 1950s. Nationalization of oil industry was a turning point in the Iranian contemporary history in which several elements contributed and it can be said that oil industry nationalization was fulfilled by the coalition of all religious and national forces and political and allied groups against colonialism and dictatorship. In this respect, the important and critical role of the clergy should not be neglected. The role of Ayatollah Kashani, the measures taken by Fadaeian Islam Group and Navab Safavi and the fatwas of Islamic scientists were among the exemplary measures taken by the clergy in that time. But having a look at the role and position of the clergy in that period of time tells us that it is a complex and contradictory role with offending and sometimes contradictory tendencies. This has provided the ground for contradictory interpretations. This study deals with evaluating the role of the clergy in that process. It evaluates the reasons of different interpretations and tendencies of the clergy towards oil industry nationalization while evaluating their political and social conditions. It should be noted that putting an emphasis on the role of the clergy shall never be deemed as denial of the role of other political forces and groups in the fulfillment of oil industry nationalization process.     Manuscript profile

After accepting the JCPOA and despite Peugeot's absence from cooperation with Iran Khodro for several years, the company, with the aim of transferring technology, re-launched a joint project with Peugeot to produce two products, 301 and 2008, but like the bitter experiences of the past, This technology transfer project also failed; Therefore, in this article, the issue of technology transfer in the automotive industry is conceptually studied using the Grounded Theory of the foundation and the factors influencing it. In this article, from the beginning, technology transfer is assumed to be equivalent to knowledge transfer, and knowledge transfer is criticized in two categories: explicit and implicit knowledge. Based on the research background, the effective factors in technology transfer are classified into 7 groups. Then, the main questions for the project were collected in the interviews. From the interviews, 42 phrases called "conceptual perception" were obtained. The conceptual findings were then divided into 9 "semantic categories" and "root of weakness" in each semantic category. The results show that low competitive pressure in the Iranian automotive market has led to a monopoly, so that Peugeot Automotive Group has not transferred any of its advanced parts technology to Iranian suppliers of their parts.

Each steel company buys the raw materials it needs from the manufacturers in question, thus forming supply chains with network properties. Therefore, there is a need to conduct performance research to improve the performance of these chains. In studies, the study of specific structures in the supply chain has received less attention. In this research, we have tried to examine the network and how to evaluate its performance in the presence of uncontrollable, undesirable factors. For this purpose, network DEA models are proposed that evaluate the performance of the chain in the presence of uncontrollable inputs and outputs, undesirable output even in its internal structure. Then, 11 present steel companies, the corresponding chain of each of which has two stages, were evaluated by the presented models in 1398. The designed model was based on the network Data Envelopment Analysis of tailored the companies under study and their efficiency was calculated. Based on the results, one company under the first stage and one company under the second stage were recognized as efficient, and all companies had a total efficiency of less than one.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of electricity tariff liberalization on value added and growth of different economic sectors based on designing a general equilibrium model that can be calculated for Iran and using the social accounting matrix in 2011. The government intended to organize the use of energy subsidies in addition to establishing justice in society by implementing the law on targeted subsidies. In this study, the policy of subsidy reform and electricity tariff liberalization has been studied in the form of two scenarios. The first scenario was a 50% reduction in subsidies paid in the electricity sector and the second scenario was the complete elimination of subsidies in the electricity sector. The results of this study showed that the change in electricity tariffs has led to an increase in value added growth in various economic sectors in both scenarios. Meanwhile, the sectors of oil and natural gas, food and electricity supply, water and gas have shown the highest growth in the second scenario compared to the first scenario, and the sectors of construction, wood and paper, non-metallic minerals and other industries.

Abstract&lrm;.AbstractObjective: Due to the nature and importance of the insurance industry, optimal financial information and reporting is very important in this industry. Nevertheless, the investors of insurance companies, the stock exchange organization, central insurance and even the policyholders as the main beneficiaries of insurance companies expect significant improvements in the financial reporting of insurance companies. The clauses of the auditor's report on reserves and non-compliance with Iran's Accounting Standard No. 28 and the Central Insurance Regulations are other noteworthy issues. The International Financial Reporting Standard 4, which will be replaced by IFRS 17 in 2023, is another important issue that Iran's insurance industry must be able to prepare to accept. Therefore, in the current research, the issues and problems of financial reporting in the insurance industry have been identified from the dimensions of recognition and measurement, reporting and disclosure, and finally systems and processes, which are the three main components in the framework of financial reporting.Method: The method used in the research is a survey and the data collection was done through a questionnaire. Finally, 50 questionnaires from 16 insurance companies were received and analyzed.Findings and conclusions: The research results show that the insurance industry is facing challenges in financial reporting. The identified challenges in the field of recognition and measurement include the lack of accounting standards in the field of life insurance, lack of application of common measurement methods at the international level, lack of insurance measurements at the group level, Contracts and recognition of insurance premium income are based only on historical information and ignoring adjustments including risk adjustment. In the field of reporting and disclosure, there are challenges such as the inability to distinguish between insurance operations and investment operations, the problem of distinguishing whether a group of contracts is profitable or unprofitable, and the nature and amount of risks arising from insurance contracts are not disclosed. . Finally, the lack of sufficient training of employees and the lack of integration of the information technology system and the software used are challenges in the field of systems and processes.

Abstract Operational segment reporting is one of the essential and vital parts of financial reporting. This information is useful for both Intra and extra-organizational consumers. So far, in operational segment reporting two main and important approaches called risk and return approach and management approach have been considered by researchers and the body of standard committee. Each of these two approaches has had its supporters and critics. Due to these criticisms and weaknesses, the mentioned models, especially in the Iranian banking industry, do not meet the needs of their users. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to design and present a model for the operational segments reporting of the Iranian banking industry according to the economic environment as well as market and business conditions of this industry.  Samples are selected from provider, users and also supervisors of the banking industry. The number of samples is also tested based on theoretical saturation criteria. Finally, the analysis of research findings has led to the design of a model in which users’ need are introduced as a causal variable and operational segment reporting of the Iranian banking industry as a central point. Due to the underlying and intervention conditions and leading strategies, promoting the usefulness of financial reporting in the banking industry has been introduced as a consequence of the designed model. The results of this study can be an appropriate basis for the body of standard committee and regulators in order to formulate how to disclose information of operational segments in the Iranian banking industry.

Darkhovein oil field local community, along last century. have been encountered to sugarcane industries, nuclear power plant and oil and gas industries as three iconic symbols of the industrial development. The production-oriented policies domination, has had the environmental, social, cultural and political implications and caused accumulation of claims and unheard voices of the inhabitants of this geopolitical region. In the current essay by applying Grounded Theory (GT) approach among the oil industry officials and staff, we made an effort to give an explanation to the present status. The policies adopted by oil industry practitioners have been identified in four paradigm models: distrust, ignorance, interest preferences (short-term, individual, organizational) and conditional interaction and within them the Alienation, as the core phenomena, has been emerged. These policies, along with factors such as the lack of, the socio-cultural-environmental context of projects, the newness and lack of integrated implementation of corporate social responsibility(CSR) as well as the normative pressure of the local and corporate subcultures, have yielded various results and affected on the local community both social and individual dimensions. At social dimension,, consequences have led destruction of the traditional economy, the disruption of Indigenous knowledge, pollution and environmental degradation, increasing ethnic-security tensions.َAt individual dimension phenomena as life time job-seeking, feeling hopelessness- inefficiency- powerlessness -isolation, and dependency with mutual distrust have been emerged.

The purpose of this study is to design a credit portfolio optimization model in the banking industry using a meta-innovative algorithm. Risk is one of the basic concepts in financial markets that has a certain complexity. Due to the lack of a clear picture of risk realization, financial markets need risk control and management approaches. The present study is a descriptive survey in terms of data collection and applied in terms of purpose. The statistical population of this research includes all facility files of the last 10 years as well as the financial statements of Ansar Bank branches affiliated to Sepah Bank, which were selected by census method. The risk criteria used in the models are: fuzzy risk value, absolute value of fuzzy downward deviations and half entropy. Research models were implemented using multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm. The software used in conducting research is MATLAB software. The results show that the performance of the fuzzy risk-averaged model is better than the other two models in evaluating optimal portfolios. Therefore, the use of the above model in credit basket optimization is recommended. Manuscript profile

There have always been two approaches to forecasting in financial markets: traditional and intelligent approaches. In the traditional method, this forecasting is based on statistical models and in the intelligent method is based on artificial intelligence models. Traditional methods mainly use linear patterns to model market behavior, while the main advantage of smart models is the ability to learn and model nonlinear behaviors in the market. It has always been a question of which methods can better model market behavior, and despite the many models that have been proposed for forecasting, there is still an attempt to build a model that can use more effective variables for forecasting. Continues to be able to take into account factors such as time, risk and return. In this research, we have used the neural network to predict the industry index. This is done by ELM neural network using two optimization methods OSELM and PSO. The results show that the prediction accuracy of these two methods is not significantly different from each other, but in terms of execution time, the OSELM neural network algorithm has performed much better and faster.

Nowadays the energy is considered as driving sector of economy. Forecast of 150 billion dollar in energy sector during the fifth development program and banking and financial system requires a dynamic and modern economy and financial tools. However, this approach requires removing legal barriers and modification of the contract. Financing in the oil industry in recent years has faced with serious challenges. The joint investment in oil and gas fields is indispensable. Thus designing of a new contract with the Ministry of Petroleum oil bonds known parallel forward security, tries to raise funds needed. In this article we look at a proposal of the Ministry of Petroleum pattern for optimum pricing for securities offers based on Black and Scholes option pricing model. To estimate the prices, a proposal is presented based on empirical research and statistical models. Finally, we recommend that according to this model other researchers work on pricing the oil parallel forward securities. Manuscript profile

AbstractBecause of interest conflicts between managers-owners and the possibility occurrence of agency problems, it is important to identify the potentially driving factors of agency costs and assess the role of monitoring mechanisms in order to reduce the intensity of agency costs. This paper assessed the potentially impact of external auditing on agency conflicts in political connected firms. The ratio of operational expenses to operational sales revenues is used as an index of agency costs. Also, politically governance affiliation in either board structure or ownership structure is considered as a proxy of political connection. In addition, effective role of external auditors is analyzed using auditors’ quality control rating, rotation and industry specialization criterion. Research data include 1632 firm-year observations witch consist of 204 firms listed in Tehran Securities & Exchange. Research hypotheses investigated through multivariate regression models using panel data with fixed effect and generalized least squares method. Research evidences documented that political connected firms have high level of agency costs significantly. On other side, auditor’s quality control rating, rotation and industry specialization criterion significantly lead to reduce agency costs. In addition, findings showed that auditor’s quality control rating, auditor’s rotation and auditor’s industry specialization caused to weaken the positive relation between political connection and agency costs, so lead to decrease destructive consequences of interest divergence; In fact, reputable auditors to maintain professional reputation, new auditors to maintain audit independence, and industry-specific auditors to maintain audit efficiency and effectiveness are elements of mitigating agency conflicts, especially in firms with political connection. So, it is important to understand this issue from the aspect of political connection costs and its role in intensifying agency costs, as well as from the aspect of improving audit process and its role in weakening agency costs, especially in political connected firms.

Risk exists where there is an opportunity for return. The application of risk management strategies is a critical issue; Because it prevents the occurrence of crises. Despite the risk management, if a certain crisis occurs, the resulting damages and losses will be minimized. This issue is much more important in business, because it reduces financial losses and prevents wasting time to achieve the main goals of the business. One of the most important risks that businesses face and must be managed is competitive risk and the risk of reputation or branding in business. If these risks are not managed in business, they can be potential threats and unwanted effects on the credibility and reputation of the company. have Halal branding is one of the things that is important in gaining the market and remaining in the competitive environment of global trade. The growing Muslim population, economic growth and development in Muslim countries, the emergence of potential halal markets are among the factors influencing the growth of the halal industry in the world. The purpose of this research is to express this fact that in the new conditions created, in addition to the components of the survival triangle (cost, quality and performance) which is a necessary condition for the survival of the business, to the structures of the halal triangle (Sharia, acceptability and health) ) is needed as a sufficient condition in today's competitive environment.

Achieving success by an organization and creating value for a long time depends on having an efficient business model in different periods of business cycles. This adaptation to the business model requires the capabilities that need to be created in the organization. The development of these capabilities helps organizations to overcome the inflexibility of their active business model and implement the change process in a systematic and structured way. For this purpose, businesses must constantly monitor their environmental forces and adapt themselves to these changes to stay competitive. The purpose of this study identifies the dynamic capabilities to adapt and change the organization's business model. For this purpose, the ICT industry has been studied and using Multi grounded theory, data analyzed from systematic literature review over the past 15 years, and interviews with 18 industry experts, which are improbably and purposefully selected using the snowball method. Finally, a model was developed in which the dynamic capabilities needed to adapt the business model of the ICT industry into the four groups of "external observation and evaluation", "internal resource renewal", "external resource acquisition" and "internal resource reconfiguration" have been conceptualized. Also, business model adaptation has been conceptualized into three groups: "value proposition adaptation", "value creation adaptation" and "value capture adaptation". Manuscript profile

Nowadays increasing importance role of technology in economic performance improvement and business success is known by managers; therefore, in order to create sustainable competitive advantage in modern management studies technology investment is required. In This regard, technology planning is essential to ensure the right choices and key technology development. The purpose of this study is to practice a technology strategic planning framework in order to invest in technology with overall objectives and strategies. For this purpose, analytical network process (ANP) and sensitivity analysis have been used. Previous studies applied analytical hierarchy process. Since this method is not suitable for study of mutual relations between criteria and alternatives, we used analytical network process instead. Through this process, objectives, strategies and technology alternatives find meaningful relation with ; their role were identified by sensitivity analysis, and finally scenarios for decision making were created. The proposed model is implemented in Iran petrochemical industry and as a result, improvement, development , localization of technology , process of Olefin and Paraffin production, Polymer Nano composites , Polymer membranes and Membranous and Hybrid bioreactors, Polyethylene terephthalate , Methanol synthesis and acetic acid synthesis catalysts were identified as petrochemical industry technology priorities.

Nowadays, productive or service organizations consider the customer's satisfaction as a significant criterion to assess their work quality. Since almost all the organizations need to compete in different areas including services, giving a high quality service is so important to achieve a permanent competitive advantage. In order to survive in competitive markets, organizations and companies have to provide high quality customer services. The results of many researches illustrate that the service quality is the necessity for customer's satisfaction. Though, a lot of customer oriented companies have problem in recognizing and evaluating the customers' preferences and they often misunderstand the customers' demands. Because providing a high quality service requires understanding the relationship between the demands of customers and the quality of services provided by company. The organizations and companies which give software service also include this rule. The purpose of this research is to present a model to predict the customer's satisfaction from the provided services , also determine the influence of each effective variable on customer's satisfaction, as well be informed of customer's satisfaction level from provided service by the mentioned company. The proposed study used predictive algorithms such as Regression and Classification on data by Rapid Miner. Finally the method with the highest accuracy and minimum error were selected. In addition, in order to determine the most effective variables in customer's satisfaction, the weighting method was used. In order to make decisions and improve customer satisfaction, the results will be available for managers. Manuscript profile

The strategy implementation is a dynamic, repetitive, complex process that is undertaken to achieve strategic goals by turning the strategic plans into tangible realities. This process is affected by the set of decisions made and actions taken by managers and employees of the organization. As such, it is necessary to develop a comprehensive and well-tailored model for strategy implementation that helps managers lead the organization toward appropriate implementation of the strategies. On this basis, the present research seeks to adopt a grounded theory-based qualitative methodology to describe such a model. In this work, the required samples were taken via a purposive, theoretical, snowball sampling approach. Using deep interviews as a research instrument for data collection, the collected data was analyzed using the grounded theory paradigm model. Accordingly, considering the repetitions, a total of 134 initial codes were extracted from the transcripts of the interviews. Investigating the associated concepts, we identified 21 categories, out of which 6 primary categories were ultimately recognized upon selective coding. The obtained results Confirmed that, activating such mechanisms as strategic management of strategic implementation across the organization and careful monitoring of different steps of the process, implementation of strategies across organizations via an integrated approach formed on the basis of causal, contextual, and interventional factors leads to two principle achievements, namely implementation of target strategies across the organization and, consequently, achievement of the organizational visions and missions along with improved performance of the organization because of enhanced agility and efficiency of activities across the organization.

Air pollution is one of the most serious environmental problems in Golestan. Each day, a tremendous amount of toxic and fatal gases, different kinds of pollutants, perilous floating particles produced by cars, factories, industrial workshops, power plants and residential buildings are added to the air. Largely due to the increasing demand for cement, cement production industries around Golestan have increased their daily production. Toxic gases and hazardous particulates that release into environment from cement factories have considered as the environmental problems. Cement factory emissions into air cause serious air pollution and affect the plant and animal life in the environment. This  study characterized the levels of heavy metals of the leaves near a cement factory. The concentration of eight se lected heavy metals(Ag, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cs, Bi, Ba) were measured on 24 leaves from Quercus and Paliurus  spina and Phragmitesaus tralis samples (1-2 m) collected near a cement plant via inductively coupled plasma/mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS).

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to design a structural equation model for causal relationship of strategic alliance, human resource flexibility, and sources of organizational conflict with competitive advantages in the industry of sports production. The method of this study was descriptive causal, which was conducted by survey method. Participants in this study included 306 owners, managers, marketing managers, and sales managers of sports production units in Tehran city. For data collection, four questionnaires were used to get the specific data which were the Strategic Alliance (r=0.88), Competitive Advantage (r=0.88), Organizational Conflict Resources (r=0.89), and Human Resource Flexibility (r=0.86). After confirming the validity and reliability of the questionnaires, these questionnaires were distributed among the participants. In addition, structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. The results showed that strategic alliance significantly has a direct effect on the two components of human resource flexibility (0.27) and sources of organizational conflict (0.34). Moreover, organizational conflict resources significantly have a negative effect on human resource flexibility (-0.47). Furthermore, human resource flexibility has the greatest impact on competitive advantage (0.62). This coefficient is the sum of the indirect effects of strategic alliance and sources of organizational conflict, as well as the direct effect of human resource flexibility on competitive advantage. The following conclusion can be drawn from the present study that the management of the different companies of sports production enters the trade unions with full confidence, to take into account the issues within the organization, such as cost-effectiveness and time, which create a competitive advantage. Consequently, they can turn a competitive advantage from an impermanence competitive advantage to sustainable competitive advantage.    Manuscript profile

The purpose of this study is to present an electronic marketing model in the production sector of Iran's sports industry. The method of the present research is mixed (qualitative-quantitative) and structural equations, based on the present time, in terms of applied purpose and in terms of collecting field information. The statistical community in the quality sector includes experts who specialize in sports marketing and have a history of management in sports equipment manufacturing companies. Also, in a small part, including all the managers of companies producing sports equipment in Iran, according to the statistics announced through the official website of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade, there are 255 people (236 men and 19 women). Due to the limited statistical population, the statistical sample was selected by the total number method, with the difference that only 238 healthy questionnaires were returned by the managers and the final number of the statistical sample is 238 people (223 males and 15 females). The data collection tool was a semi-structured interview in the qualitative part of the interview. The results of this interview were designed in the form of a questionnaire with 4 main factors. For construct validity (exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis), Cronbach's alpha was used for reliability. The results of the final model were approved in 4 factors: technology, promotion, possibility of ordering online and answering customers' questions. Therefore, it is suggested that managers in their manufacturing companies use technology to update the company and provide conditions in e-marketing to make better use of this space to better promote. Also, the field of holding training courses for employees on responding and dealing appropriately with customers should be foreseen, and in order to receive orders, hold a course to familiarize employees to receive orders.

Without considering the activism of religious institutions,including Shia and Sunni clergy,or even Jewish religious figures, studying the political and social history of the Middle East will be imperfect.The clergy within any religious or social group has had a significant impact on these groups’ internal and external developments. The focus of the present research has been whether this activism is solely aimed at defending a particular ethical or religious purity,or if it is in a close relationship with the power-seeking motives of these activists.In this regard,an attempt has been made to explore and investigate the activism of Shia clergy in Iran during one of the most crucial periods in Iran’s political history, i.e.the nationalization of the oil industry in the 1940s.The primary question of this study is what was the role of Shia clergy in the nationalization of the oil industry and what were the objectives they pursued in doing so? According to the research results, if we categorize Shia clergy into three groups:conservative,revolutionary and pragmatic,the pragmatic movement has been the dominant force in the nationalization of the oil industry.Through accepting balancing role for itself, it sought to create alliances and temporary coalitions,sometimes conflicting with other social activists in the course of nationalization of the oil industry to provide the grounds for the emergence and empowerment of activists who could better contribute to the consolidation of their power and position.In this path, the defense of religious values was on the sidelines or just served as a means to their ultimate goal.

In the context of providing a model of intelligent management systems for sustainable and resilient production systems in the cement industry in order to improve social development, it is very vital to perform multiple analyzes to select the best algorithms to improve the performance of management systems. In this research, an issue related to production based on the model of intelligent management systems for sustainable and resilient production systems in the cement industry has been investigated. The main goal of this problem is to improve the production system in such a way that stability is maintained uniformly in the production process. In this production process, Poisson distribution and implementation of artificial intelligence are used in production with exponential distribution. Also, two main limitations have been set on this issue; One related to the total number of productions that are created and the other related to the maximum production time limit. This issue has three goals in mind. The first objective is to reduce the average production expectation as the main objective. The second goal is to minimize the amount of environmental damage in the production process. The third goal is to maximize the total functionality of the devices per unit of time. For this purpose, VIS, CNSGA-II, NSGA-II, MISA, NNIA and NRGA algorithms were used in MATLAB software. VIS algorithm showed the best performance in most criteria. Manuscript profile

One of the essential issues existing in the industry section and long term investments is the procedure of evaluation and selection of industrial projects. Since selection of the optimum and appropriate project, is followed by economic efficiency and conversely the failure of a project causes time and cost wastage and will be followed by huge adverse consequences. Hence, decision making in this field is complicated and various tangible, intangible, qualitative and quantitative factors are involved in it and for this reason identification, study and analysis of them is necessary. In order to evaluate the projects in this article, initially technical and financial studies are considered and analyzed and its results are posed. Technical studies include estimation of investment constant costs, estimation of the plan income, costs before usage, capital turnover and production charges and financial studies include estimation of net current value indices, internal output rate, profitability index, capital return period, break – even analysis and other factors which contribute to economic evaluation of the project. The case study in this research is construction of a tile factory which five plans which in fact involve the research options are considered with indices and various technical and economic factors which through Fuzzy Hierarchical Analysis Technique which is Fuzzy Multivariate Decision Making Methods, have been compared so that the best option is selected and the projects are ranked. The ‌considered indices involve four financial indices including net current value, capital return period, investment output, sales output and the ratio of numerical break – even. The research result indicates that the projects ranking results is very close to the ranking on the basis of internal output rate. Manuscript profile

In recent years, the use of artificial intelligence in social media has increased, and managers are trying to use this potential opportunity for greater customer engagement. The purpose of this study is the impact of social media with the help of artificial intelligence on customer engagement in the automotive industry. The research has been done in a descriptive-survey way. The research community is qualitative and quantitative. The participants in the qualitative part include marketing managers of the automotive industry and university professors of marketing in the number of 23 people who were selected by non-probability and purposeful sampling. The statistical population in the quantitative part includes customers of the automotive industry, who were randomly selected and 412 people. In the qualitative part, the components and indicators of the model were identified and extracted by the content analysis method and finally confirmed by the Lawshe coefficient method. The findings of this section showed that the social media variable has four components including strategy, communication, trust and information, and customer engagement has three components: information engagement, growth engagement and innovation engagement. Therefore, four hypotheses were proposed and the data collected through the questionnaire were tested with structural equation modeling technique and Smart PLS software. The result of the model test showed that there is no relationship between the strategy, communication and trust of artificial intelligence of social media and customer engagement. However, there is a positive and significant relationship between social media artificial intelligence information and customer engagement. Therefore, the marketing managers of the automotive industry should use strategies, communication, trust and artificial intelligence information in social media to encourage customers to participate in the sharing of information and ideas.
