This process is known as one of the important factors of economic development in many countries and many universities and educational institutions offer courses in this field. Considering the growing importance of entrepreneurship, entrepreneurship development policy needs a precise basis from a theoretical point of view in order to help create an entrepreneurial economy with more entrepreneurs and achieve the goals set in the country. Entrepreneurship in a competitive and market-based economy is a key role today, because in a dynamic economy, ideas, products and services are always changing and because all active elements in the economic scene (producer, consumer and capital) transition) should engage in entrepreneurship. On the other hand, with the presence of women in the society, the role of this stratum becomes more apparent in economic processes, which makes it necessary to pay attention to it.

One of the important issues in technological learning is measuring the dimensions of this learning. The review of past studies shows that, despite emphasizing the importance of determining indicators for measuring technological learning, a unified framework has not been presented and most studies emphasize the impact of learning on specific areas. By examining various sources and using meta-synthesis method, this research seeks to provide a framework for measuring technological learning styles and provide a specific classification of them. For this purpose, the articles published in scientific journals during the years 2000 to 2021 were reviewed and by combining the findings in a systematic way, an attempt was made to provide a more complete framework for measuring the different dimensions of technological learning. The introduction of "science-based learning" measurement indicators, "experience-based learning" measurement indicators, and innovation measurement indicators resulting from these learnings and classification into three levels: basic, intermediate, and advanced are among the most important results of this research.

Various approaches to data envelopment analysis have been presented so far to provide a good tool for evaluating the efficiency of units in uncertain situations, including random, fuzzy and robust approaches. In a situation where the probability distribution function of random variables is known, stochastic approach is a precise solution for problem solving. Nevertheless, previous research in this field has focused on the transformation of a random problem into a definite problem. In this research, a method for modeling data envelopment analysis is presented using computer programming. In this method, random processes are simulated, and finally, the performance distribution function is presented instead of a definite number as the unit's efficiency. In this model, a new concept is presented as the probability of efficiency, which represents the probability that the unit will be located on the efficient boundary. The proposed method is empirically applied in a real case of selecting research and development projects. Manuscript profile -

These reforms are presented in the form of innovation discourse in Islamic law. Accordingly, the present research was carried out for genealogy and to present the strategies of the innovation discourse in Islamic law by Laclau and Mouffe's discourse theory. The research results showed that the innovation discourse in Islamic law dismisses some signifiers of both philosophical and theological discourses and legal discourse in modernity, breaks down their structure, and uses some of their signifiers in a new structure. The signifiers of this discourse, simultaneous attention to the changing and fixed areas of law, promotion of attraction and effectiveness of law, the requirements of national and international society, the priority of subject scholarship to discovering the sentence, innovation while preserving the bases of Islamic law, and considering rational, consensual, and traditional sources are pivotal factors alongside text. A search in genealogy of different Islamic sciences including speech, principles, and the philosophy of jurisprudence proves them to be some abundant capital which in turn shows the necessity of paying attention to time and place conditions and legal innovations.

Research, development, production and sale of these drugs have high risk and cost and require a long time. Hence, global companies are turning to technological and innovative collaborations. In Iran, however, the issue of cooperation between biopharmaceutical companies has not been addressed. Research Method: In order to identify the ways in which the actors of this industry cooperate along the value chain, the present study has tried to draw the actors in each of the links of the chain by studying two cases in Sinagen and Ronak Daroo companies. The present study is an applied type and interpretive paradigm in a way that using a multi-case study strategy, attempts have been made to identify ways of technological cooperation between different actors along the value chain. The interviews with each of the interviewees consisted of 13 main questions and were in the form of a semi-structured interview. Findings: The results of this study show that although good cooperation has been formed between the actors of this industry for the production of medicine. But these collaborations have been more about developing the market or producing biosimilars than on developing technology and upgrading research capabilities and developing new drugs. Also, despite the formation of few technological collaborations between companies in the industry, the lack of specialized companies such as clinical trial companies and small biotechnology companies, legal shortcomings such as the weakness of the commercial law for mergers and acquisitions and the weakness of use Export development tools are among the most important problems facing the promotion of technological cooperation between companies in this industry. Conclusion: Iranian biopharmaceutical companies generally acquire their production knowledge through reverse engineering and for the production of biosimilars and perform the distribution and after-sales service themselves.

This study specifies the concept of activity-based innovations and identifies the factors influencing ABI initiation, adoption and extent of use. The statistical population of this study is Kerman manufacturing companies. Required data was collected through self-made questionnaire. The research period has been the summer of 2017. Binary logistic regression model and Pearson correlation coefficient were used to test the research hypotheses. According to the research findings, there is no a meaningful relationship between innovation attributes and initiation of "activity-based innovations." Among the attributes of innovation, only the relative advantage has a positive and significant relationship with the adoption of innovation. Among the organizational factors, only two factors “top management support” and the “levels of overhead” have a positive and significant relationship with initiation of innovation as well as only two factors “top management support” and “champion support” have a positive and significant relationship with the adoption of innovation.

From another perspective, the continuous design of fresh ideas and innovation are key elements of the global era. Moving towards the creation and realization of a creative city in economic development is very necessary. Therefore, the presentation of the creative city model in 22 urban areas of Tehran is one of the priorities and the main objective is to rank the indicators of creativity with 19 factors from the indicators of the creative city using the secondary data, the preparation of the script and the proper use of the SPSS software solution. And leveling up. Studies show that in terms of indicators of a creative city, the level of Tehran's regions is not the same. However, the prioritization of the Topsis model reveals three distinct levels: (1) the level; (2) the semi-possessive (medium); (3) the surface of the crust (deprived). The results of the research show that, on the one hand, the increase and improvement of the criteria of the creative city has its effects on the movement of neighborhoods to the realization of the creative city, and on the other hand, the amount of this impact is very different, so that according to the network analysis model, the index of innovation benchmarks Showing 265/0 has the greatest impact on moving a neighborhood toward the creative neighborhood in Tehran. In the meantime, the number of science and technology centers, innovations and inventions play the most role in the realization of the creative area of Tehran; however, the factor of human capital, especially elites and students, social capital, social networking and cooperative networks, play a major role in realizing In the final stage, quality of life is also effective in moving a neighborhood toward creative neighborhoods in the city. The calculation of multiple correlation coefficient shows that 0.39% of the changes in the realization of creative neighborhoods in Tehran are due to the improvement and application of the components of the creative city, so that for a unit of change due to standard deviation, the criteria for the realization of the creative city 62 / 0% of the unit changes in the realization of creative neighborhoods in Tehran.

Demand for available water resources is fast and the competition among the various sectors of the economy for the scarce water is becoming intense. In response to these conditions, pursuing various innovative technical, institutional and policy interventions to enable the efficient, equitable and sustainable utilization of the scarce water resources. In this regard, many governments introduce new irrigation systems to address water shortage in their agriculture sectors. However, the success of such policy completely depend on farmers’ adoption and this, in turn, depends on farmers’ satisfaction. In light of these facts, the aim of this paper is to investigate and measure farmers' satisfaction with a new irrigation system that ultimately leads to a better understanding of why farmers adopt or reject new irrigation system. To achieve these goals, the survey method is applied as a research method. The statistical populations were farmers who adopted the new irrigation system in Behbehan Township in Khuzestan province in southern Iran. Data were collected using a researcher made questionnaire. Validity questionnaires were approved by a panel of expert and its reliability was approved by a pilot study (0.81-0.94).

However, sustainable consumption of bio-fertilizers is dependent to their adoption by farmers. Accordingly, the main purpose of this study was to examine the impact of bio-fertilizers perceived innovation characteristics on intention to use them in Yengijeh village in Zanjan County. The statistical population consisted of 313 farmers working in this village from which 165 farmers were chosen through convenience sampling. A questionnaire was applied to gather data that its reliability and face validity was examined, respectively by computing Cronbach Alfa and a panel of expert. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the data. Results revealed that among five bio-fertilizers’ innovation perceived characteristics (compatibility, complexity, trial ability, observability and relative advantage), only observability had positive significant impact on intention to use these fertilizers. It seems that the observability of bio-fertilizers in comparison with other innovation characteristics can be achieved without need for any action to be taken through environmental indicators and informal relationships. Thus, intention to use bio-fertilizers can be predicted by characteristics that easily and without extra effort can be understood. Manuscript profile -

The Porter hypothesis argues that more stringent environmental policies can actually have a net positive effect on the competitiveness of regulated firms because such policies promote cost-cutting efficiency improvements, which in turn reduce or completely offset regulatory costs, and foster innovation in new technologies that may help firms achieve international technological leadership and expand market share. Given the importance of this hypothesis to policymakers and firms, many studies have been conducted to prove or disprove this hypothesis. Material and Methodology: in this study, we used panel smooth transition regression for 25 OECD members during 2000-2015. Findings: the results indicated that the weighted indicator of environmental policy stringency in linear and nonlinear part of the model had positive and significant effects on increasing the number of selected environmental technologies. The coefficient of variation was estimated to be 0.142 in the linear part and 0.213 in the nonlinear part. The speed of transition between the two regimes of weighted growth index of environmental policies, according to the estimated transition parameter, is 3.17. Discussion and Conclusion: Analysis of results shows that when the weight index growth of environmental policies is low, the severity of the impact of independent and control variables on the number of selected environmental technologies will vary. Given the experience of developed countries, improving the state of the legal system and property rights, increasing official and state aid for environmental development, and increasing state funding for environmental research and development can play an effective role in improving competitiveness and enhancing enterprise innovation.

Sanai represents the ethical and mystical poetry of his time. Applying rhetorical themes and Qalandarian concepts has such a status (for him) that poets such as Attar, Rumi, and Hafez have used them in their poetry and followed his style. Specific spirit runs in Sanai's mysticism which is completely different from the mystics before and after him. Qalandar owns positive and negative manifestations in Attar's poetries for instance but Sanai avoids Musalmanism and pious appearance. Tavern and Sufi are two important features in Sanai's Qalandariat. On the other hand, the frequency of reproachful concepts is also significant in the content analysis of Attar's sonnets. This paper studies the abovementioned meanings and concepts and a brief comparison with Attar's sonnets is discussed as well. Manuscript profile -

On the other hand, one of the most obvious aspects of the miracle of the Holy Quran is its musical miracle, so that from the very beginning of its revelation, it has immersed all listeners in miracles. But what is more interesting in the verbal music of the Qur'an than any other subject; There is a close connection between word and meaning. However, this heartwarming relation is not easily detected and identified in all cases. In this research, which has been done in a research-analytical manner, examples of types of superfluous puns in the Qur'an have been introduced and some cases of beautiful proportions of word and meaning in this branch of puns have been explained; Proofs that word and meaning in the word of God are parallel and the semantic beauty of verbal arrays in the Qur'an, if not more than their verbal beauty, is not less than it.

The Holy Quran uses the nature to remind the greatness of God and His goodness and justice, and believes that many of these images are taken from the environment. This Qur'an's reliance on nature and existence in similes and proofs is the secret of its immortality and its universality in every place and time, because it invokes fixed and permanent principles; these principles are man and nature. There are numerous examples of these Qur'anic metaphorical images that are at the highest level of expressive miracle and examine all subjects including promise and persuasion and intimidation, direction and legislation, which indicates the position of this expressive interpretation in the power of influence and rhetoric. The purpose of this article is to study the effects of Quranic similes on the human psyche and then, it examines the motivations and behaviors of the human psyche in encountering these metaphorical images, and at the end, this imagination and innovation and use of color are elements of these Quranic similes.

I MoreIn the dark seventh and eighth centuries AH, which was the period of domination of the Tatar bloodthirsty and the governance of the unworthy cruel rulers over the cultural Iran, critical poems emerged in ways deeper than the protesting literature in the sixth century. In this period, Saadi and Saif Farghani were two liberals who each addressed the issues of the disintegrated society of that time. Since the arbitrariness of anti-people governments had captured the pen and speech in the labyrinth of tyranny, these poets inevitably turned to cryptic novelties, especially equivoque , to criticize the turbulent situation of the time. Based on a descriptive-analytical and comparative method, this study aims to investigate and compare the function of equivoque in raising political and social issues in the Ghazal of the mentioned poets in order to firstly explain the impact of Genghis Khan invasion and Mongol rule in this period on the common theme in their Ghazal and secondly, the most equivoques of the Ghazal of the mentioned poets is known by their political and social functions and their similarities and differences, as well. The final result of this research shows that the application of "Equivoque " method in raising political and social issues in Saadi's Ghazal is more frequent than Saif’s. Most of the equivoques criticisms of these two poets are directed at those in power. Among the types of equivoque , abstract equivoque and equivoque of proportion are more prominent in Saadi's Ghazal and equivoque of proportion and contradiction in Saif's Ghazal, respectively.

Late in sixteenth century the Persian versification took a route to an enigmatic intricacy which resulted in ambiguities brought about by language manipulation and semantic deviation. It was an attempt to discover new relations and to create paradoxical images. The typical features that make together his verse ambiguous are different from those belonging to Hafez and Rumi’s versification. Ambiguity in the poems of these two is because of the span of meaning. Moreover, ambiguity in Sāeb’s verse is different from the ambiguity existing in the poems of Anwari and Ḵhāqāni who let in their verses scientific, philosophical, historical and religious comprehension. This article studies those elements – mostly aesthetic ones – which make Sāeb’s verses ambiguous. Sāeb’s intention to invoke certain ambiguity in his poems and his mastery of aesthetic applying of it are among the findings of this article Manuscript profile -

Multiple linear regression and mixed data were used to test the research hypotheses. The statistical sample consisted of 102 corporations accepted in Tehran Stock Exchange that were chosen by convenient sampling during the years 2013 to 2020.Finding: The results indicated that there is a significantly negative relation between corporate social responsibility and corporate innovation. Furthermore, social responsibility has a significantly negative effect on human capital. Thus, according to the results of multiple regression, the intervening role of human capital between corporate social responsibility and innovation is confirmed. Moreover, the results showed that social responsibility has no significant impact on financing policy. Therefore, the variable of financing policy does not intervene in the relation between corporate social responsibility and innovation. Companies should invest in innovative activities and social responsibility to gain legitimacy and respond to different expectancy of beneficiaries.Conclusion: Corporates that fulfill their social responsibility actively, have more access to credit and gain better debt conditions. Companies which have a tendency towards social responsibility activities, bring more innovation in their products and procedures due to different reasons. By performing social responsibility activities, they support motivation, participation, and commitment of human resources in order to increase corporate innovation. Manuscript profile -

This genre, in fact, describes truthful senses and pure emotions of poet and is full of his grief. It also portrays poet's life in prison. Some of these poets in different literary periods with the help of this literary technique portrayed their personal experiences in the prison, among them was Ibn Zaydun, the distinguished Andalusian poet, who due to his slander enemies' backbites, was put into the prison, in charge of participation in a plot against established government and attempts to return ummayyed caliphate. His bitter life in prison reflected in five eloquent elegies scattered in his divān (collection of poems). These poems, despite of their beauty and eloquence, are not yet independently studied. This lack of study persuaded us to examine these elegies connotations by use of a descriptive and analytic method and present the degree of innovations and imitations in his poems to the reader. In addition, we tried to depict the poet's point of view to this genre of lyric poetry. One of the most important results of this study is that the multiplicity of poetic motives in an elegy is among the most important signs of poet's imitation in his habsiyāt. One of his innovations is that he merged beautiful scenes of Andalusian nature to his habsyyāt. Thus, he was not completely imitator in composing habsiyāt, but was somehow an innovator.

The renewal must prepare context to create new literal genres in addition to utilizing positive aspects of other cultures. So, this type of renewal is positive. Hadith of Isa ibn Hisham, essay of Mohammad Al Mavilhi is considered as the most significant literary essay in the field of renaissance which is published at the end of 19th century. This renaissance essay is reasonable and could prepare ground for creating new literal genres like story and novel. It is hard to consider this book as a special literary genre because it contains properties of old Arabic literature and also western modern literature simultaneously. So, Mavilhi didn’t completely have commitment to any form of modern literature and traditional shapes of Arabic literature until this book is counted as beginning of story and novel in contemporary Arabic literature.The present paper is going to investigate this essay and its structural and content to explain aspects borrowed from heritage on the one hand and signs of renewal in this work on the other hand. Investigation of this work shows clearly that in compilation of this book, the writer was inspired by Maghamat among his own heritage as he used new western achievements, i.e. story and novel as his pattern in writing. So this book has a strong relation with Maghamat and has similarity with novel or story in some aspects. Manuscript profile -

Because there are some disagreements among many critics about the fact of his poetical oppositions as some believe that it is a pure imitation of past poets while some others believe that it made an innovation in his poetical oppositions. So we are going to find the fact of his poetical oppositions. In this respect and to discover the truth, odes with which he opposed past poets were studied and at first his poetic style was dealt. And then we expressed the most important features of his poetical oppositions. Finally, we compared one of his poetical oppositions with Abouforas's poems to determine his style in poetical oppositions with past generations. With these introductions, we analyzed his oppositions in imitation and creation and tried to characterize his success level in poetical oppositions with emphasis on two key elements of literary action: “form and “content”. At the end of this study it was concluded that Baroudi has kept his own poetical style and characteristic in his poetical oppositions and that most of the time the ode with which he opposed were the only sources of inspiration for the flourishing of his poetic experiences.

Due to the literary position and influence of Hossain Monzavi on contemporary ghazals and poets, the need to investigate his poetry seemed pressing. The present study aimed to investigate how various types of allegories were utilized in Monzavi’s ghazals, and, based on the obtained evidence, it was shown that the literary figures of speech occupied a special position in his poetry. As the nature of the figure of speech depends on previously-known texts, tales, and poems, it, consequently, does not have much space for creativity and innovation. Thus, Monzavi has just been able to be innovative on rare occasions, including the manner of conceptually utilizing the allegories. A number of articles were found on Hossain Monzavi’s poetry and thought, but no study was conducted to focus on “allegories in Monzavi’s ghazals”. The present study used a descriptive-analytical methodology to investigate the following questions: “How much did Monzavi pay attention to and utilize various types of allegories, and how much was his creativity in utilizing poetic allegories?” Manuscript profile -

There is always a lot of challenges for technology exchanges and the needs of the industry. In the meantime, institutional existence is important to facilitate the process of technology exchange to increase interactions. However, as past experiences show, intermediary institutions in our country have not functioned well, and technological exchanges do not have the desired conditions. To this end, the purpose of this study is to provide a model for setting up such an institution. The method used in this study is quantitative. Initially, the functions of the intermediate entity were extracted and then, using the fuzzy Delphi technique, the proper functioning of an intermediary entity in the country was identified and divided. In the following, we study the effectiveness and effectiveness of the relationship between the factors using the fuzzy demilitarization technique and have been investigated using the Fuzzy Network Analysis Technique for weighting and prioritizing.

On the other hand, the importance of new product development, as one of the revenues generating areas for companies and the country as well as identification of the necessary factors and contexts for creating innovation capabilities has become a strategic requirement in the knowledge-based industries. In this article, we strived to identify the factors affecting the creation and strengthening of product innovation capabilities, while the relationship model between these factors is evaluated and proposed, which are the drivers of product innovation. For this purpose, we first investigated meta-analysis model among 52 effective international researches in the field of product innovation, among which 15 researches were selected. Then, the identified drivers were classified into six factors. The status of research variables was assessed through distribution of a carefully designed questionnaire among 250 people of the knowledge-based companies include employees, senior managers and middle managers. Their responses were analysed using structural equation modeling, confirmatory factor analysis and regression correlation test to prove the proposed research model. The Findings showed that three components of innovation culture, intra-organizational communication and knowledge management have an effect on product innovation in knowledge-based organizations, while three components of external communication, organizational structure, and intellectual capital have no effect.

The difference between value innovation and shared value innovation is their level of activity. Although some research has emphasized the importance of value innovation in different parts of the organization & to some extent introduces Shared Value Innovation, so far no research has been conducted to provide a framework or model for managing Value Innovation in inter-organizational levels. The main purpose of the present study was to fill this research gap. In this mixture study, semi-structured interviews with petrochemical managers & academic experts were conducted & analyzed using constructive Grounded theory. Samples were selected by purposive sampling, based on the principles of Grounded theory approach. The reliability of the results is confirmed by calculating two evaluation indices. After analyzing the data using MaxQDA software, a framework for managing Shared Value Innovation in the supply chain has been proposed. The proposed theory shows how to achieve Shared Value Innovation through increasing adoption, improving communication, improving collaboration, enhancing trust, enhancing the commitment, enhancing interdependence while maintaining the independence, & simultaneously reducing costs. After designing the theory, its dimensions were evaluated and confirmed by combining the foundation data theory approach with the Delphi method. Manuscript profile -

Enjoying this technique, Mahabbat uses it in two folds: verbal and semantic. However, this paper puts emphasis on the verbal aspect as he relies heavily on the former. In this descriptive-analytical paper, phonetic, verbal, archaic, dialectical, written and syntactic defamiliarization are discussed. The results indicated that Mahabbat uses verbal and archaic defamiliarization as opposed to the other ones. In syntactic defamiliarization, separating the negative making prefix 'n' from the base, putting a distance between the adjunct and the possessive, and displacing the pronoun are widely seen in his writings. Dialectical defamiliarization is seen in using kermanshahi Kurdish dialect in Standard Persian and verbal defamiliarization materializes in innovation in new word combinations. Key words: familiarization, defamiliarization, language innovation, Mohammad Javad Mahabbat. ons. Manuscript profile -

Using a survey questionnaire, I collected data from 170 employees in the Zobahan factory. Methodology: So. We used covariance-based structural equation modeling (SEM) to examine hypotheses in this study. Results of the study suggest that green HRM practices mediate the influence of green transformational leadership on green innovation. Results: Result also found that green HRM indirectly through green innovation influences a firm's environmental performance. Overall, the findings of this study support all hypotheses of direct and indirect effects and have several theoretical and practical implications. Finally, this study significantly advances theory and suggests that the HRM-performance relationship neither depends upon the additive effect of green transformational leadership and green innovation as antecedent and mediator, respectively nor on their interactive effect but a mix of both combinational forms (i.e., additive and interactive) to affect firm environmental performance. Conclusion: Managers can achieve sustainable development by empowering their human resources through implementing green human resource management. Developing environmental protection policies, hiring people based on environmental values have an influential role in the organization.Key words: Green Transformational Leadership, Green Human Resource Management, Green Innovation, Environmental performance Manuscript profile -

Innovation means the use of mental capabilities in order to form a new concept or idea. Companies need innovation for long-term survival in today's competitive world; otherwise, they easily will be removed from the competitive scene.Although innovation may has numerous advantages to the organization by decreasing the costs or improving the efficiency, there are main risks which computer simulation can decrease them and increase the success of chance of their implementation. In this paper we review the literature and definitions of innovation and its different types, especially process of innovation. Then, we consider the simulation and its definitions, advantages and disadvantages, and also the importance of using simulation toward the process innovation. Therefore, toward the process innovation, a comprehensive compound methodology basis of twenty four simulation methodologies and approaches is presented. Finally, the results of a project performed at the Iranian high council of informatics are mentioned by the use of this methodology and SIMPROCESS simulation software. Manuscript profile -

The present study is a quantitative research in terms of applied purpose and in terms of the nature of the data. The statistical population of this study was all managers of state-owned banks in the Islamic Republic of Iran, numbering 1100 people. The statistical sample of 285 people was selected by stratified random sampling method according to Morgan table. The research tool included a researcher-made questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling using SPSS22 and Smart PLS2 software. The validity, reliability and quality of the research model were confirmed. Based on several models of measuring intellectual capital presented by previous researchers, intellectual capital is classified into human capital, structural capital, innovation capital and customer capital. In this research, a qualitative index system has been designed for the above four elements of intellectual capital by analyzing their content. Through empirical study in state-owned banks, it was found that there is a significant relationship between the scores of the four elements and its business performance, which proves the validity and rationality of the intellectual capital measurement model and the system of indicators. In the meantime, further empirical study proves that there is a significant relationship between the four elements of intellectual capital.

To serve the purpose, an extensive extensive literature was undertaken to design a 33-item questionnaire. Its face and content validity was verified by experts in the field and its construct validity was verified through confirmatory factor analysis. The reliability of the questionnaire was also examined through Cronbach alpha, composite reliability, and variance average. The research population comprised all company employees from whom samples of 198 employees were randomly selected from 86 companies based on Kukran Table. Then, the data obtained from the research sample were further analyzed using Smart PLS software, Pearson Correlation Matrix, Structural Equation Modelling, and fitness test. The results indicated a significant relationship between knowledge absorptive capacity and strategic orientation which was not significant with regard to the minor research hypotheses. Moreover, the relationship was found to be reinforced in competitor-oriented and customer-oriented companies and to be weakened in cost-orientations companies. That is, to boost strategic innovation, and thereby, constantly adapting working models to fluctuations, the companies should not only enhance their absorptive knowledge capacity but also adopt competitor-oriented and customer-oriented strategies.

Javid Ghahremani-Nahr Hamed Nozari Alireza Aliahmadi Meisam JafariInnovation can be a source of competitive advantage for companies. Therefore, recognizing and evaluating innovation in manufacturing and service industries is an effective step to start measuring innovation in these industries. Considering the importance of this issue, MoreInnovation can be a source of competitive advantage for companies. Therefore, recognizing and evaluating innovation in manufacturing and service industries is an effective step to start measuring innovation in these industries. Considering the importance of this issue, it is very important to know key dimensions and indicators to measure these innovations. Hence, the purpose of this research is to address each of the main indicators of organizational innovation and discuss the inherent advantages and disadvantages of their deployment separately. In this research, based on the literature review and the opinions of 15 academic experts and manufacturing industry experts, 10 indicators have been categorized as the most important key indicators of innovation evaluation in three general categories of input, intermediary and output. In order to evaluate and prioritize the most important innovation evaluation indicators, a non-linear quantitative analysis based on hierarchical analysis (Mikhailov's method) was used in a fuzzy environment, and for the analysis of cause and effect relationships, the fuzzy Dimetal method was used. The results show that the presence knowledgeable people and the growth of education are the most important indicators in the evaluation of innovation, and therefore, with special emphasis and attention on these indicators, we can witness an increasing growth in the field of innovation in organizations. The amount of effort to register a patent as well as the number of registered patents are among other important indicators in the field of innovation evaluation, which should be given special support in order to develop innovation in organizations. Also, it was found that the protection of innovation during the growth period is the next priority and can be very important in creating a safe environment as well as increasing the peace of technology people in innovative organizations. The analysis of cause and effect relationships using the Dimtel method also showed that the development of knowledge capital and educated people has the highest impact on other factors, which confirms the hierarchical analysis.

Along with globalization, all the countries in order to have an effective competition should move forward to the new technologies and innovation. In this regard the Vector auto-regressive (VAR) with the help of (Eviews8) software was used. To investigate the causal relationship between the variables, the parallel Granger causality test was used. The obtained results showed that there was a causal relationship between the labor Force productivity and entrepreneurship. The result of stimulation reaction indicated that the variables have the most effects on their past values. At the end of shock period, the most effect was on net capital and entrepreneurship logarithms respectively. The results of variance analysis of prediction error also showed that the fluctuations of entrepreneurship in the short term are mainly as high as 99.5 percent. Then in the fifth period, the share of the remaining variables reaches about 42 percent and the logarithm of net capital and logarithm of labor productivity respectively have the highest and the lowest shares in explaining this variable.

Accurate expert estimates show that 60% of the income and 90% of the profit of some large companies result from such innovations. The importance of human resource as a factor of competitive superiority is so great that the contribution of the invisible assets (of which the human resource is one of the most important components) in the stock markets of the organizations is following a progressive and steady route. The present article is an academic research project which tries to show the important role of the man power in the educational environments and to determine the valuable indices in evaluating the university personnel, and ultimately, after presenting a framework of elevation indices for each vice-chancellor and other personnel, and by using the best methed for evaluating the human factors (360 degree method), it states the strong and weak points of each member of the personnel. Determining the framework for evaluation indices is the most important stage of this project which requires defining the comprehensive and all-embracing factors for evaluatig the personnel in such a way that no personality trait escapes notice. We hope that , by presenting the strong and weak points of the university personnel , it will be possible to take positive steps in elevating the educational and pedagogical level and providing better services for the university students in the future.

Therefore, this research has been carried out with the aim of predicting the atmospheric factors of this phenomenon with an environmental approach. For this purpose, the environmental data related to the daily minimum temperature of 2001-2017 for 9 synoptic stations located in Ardabil, Urmia and Tabriz provinces were obtained from the Meteorological Organization of the whole country and the days with temperature below 0 degrees Celsius that cover 40% of the studied area in were selected and using the ward hierarchical clustering method that was applied on the average sea level pressure maps related to ice days, the classification of the free days was done. In order to determine the representative of each class using scripting in the MATLAB environment, Lund's correlation was calculated between the maps of different days of each class of 2 to 5 groups with a coefficient of 0.5; And the days that had a correlation coefficient of 0.5 and the most similarity with the majority of days of that class were introduced as the representative of the group. After determining the representative day, atmospheric data was prepared from the Nova site and maps of sea level pressure, geopotential height, wind vector, temperature of 500 hPa and atmospheric thickness were drawn in Gurdes software. The results of the 4 patterns for ice days showed that the most effective systems on the northwest of Iran were high pressure systems in Siberia, low pressure systems near the Arctic and high pressure systems in Northern Europe, and the studied areas were located in the front of Faraz and the negative circulation of air brought stable conditions. In most of these patterns, the western winds that have moved in the polar ice channel have brought cold air from the northern latitudes into the atmosphere of the study areas and caused low air temperatures.

The introduction of Sufism and mysticism into Persian literature has played an important role in development and fulfillment of this significant literary genre in the way that the sufis and and mystics mostly tended to express their own ideas through this literary type. The present research intends to analyze four of the most prominent sufi works of sufi Keyvan Ghazvini Mollah Abbasali (1862-1938) who was the philosopher, interpreter, poet and also a great sufi of the late Qajar period and the early years of the first Pahlavi's. These four works include: Raz Gosha (Mystry Unraveler), Behin Sokhan (Best Speeches), Ostevar Razdar (Secretive Consistent) and Erfan Nameh (Mysticism Letters). His major ethical and critical views about Gonabadiyeh sufi leaders (Aghtab) were illustrated in these works after his separation from them and they had been based upon his own quotations. He attempted to demonstrate the main reason of his separation from Gonabadiyeh group after a long period of accompanying them, his critical beliefs towards them, his own unique and unprecedented views, his innovations in Sufism and mystical issues, and their scientific value and acceptability. The reaserch method used in this study is descriptive-analytical using the library studies and its approach is critical discussion. It is done through studying and analyzing the above-mentioned works. The results of the present research, which rely on a detailed analysis of the author's thoughts, show that Qazvini's reason for his separation from Gonabadieh and its extremity and his perefernce to be detatched from Sufism and its traditional approach of master-disciple and aslo his ethical criticism of Gonabadieh could not be related either to his frustration of achieving material goals or to his frustration in acquiring the position of leader of Gonabadieh. The main reason for his separation from different Sufi sects, especially from Gonabadieh after nearly thirty years, was that he realized that this kind of Sufism and mysticism could not satisfy his internal yearning. When this bitter truth became apparent for him, he decided to criticize its ethics and to reject them and then to provide a new and accurate definition of true Sufism and mysticism.

Modernism have special external and internal characteristics, like separation from the proportion of individualism and emphasizing on creative individuality of an artist, loneliness feeling, alienation and desperation preference of unconscious to conscious , free association and unconscious stream of mind and paying attention to psychologists like Freud and Jung and some of the existentialists. Innovation is more comprehensive than Modernism. It pertains to a specific period (early twentieth century) and just like any other literary movements has reached to its peak and then has been replaced by another movement namely, post Modernism. Innovation hasn’t any beginning or ending and throughout ages manifested in the literature and art as well as in modernism. Innovation means creativity and it is not an imitation. The question that the present article wants to answer is, Can the principal of innovation be seen in the poetry of Gheisar Amin pour? Before investigation of Gheisar Aminpour' poetry, special innovations can be seen in different periods in the Persian poetry. In the modern contemporary poetry, innovation and creativity in comparison with return literary style or even Mashrothe period is more preferable. The poetry of Gheisar Aminpour has some sort of innovation in outer form as well as inner form. In his prominent poetry whether classic or Neonimai we encounter a sort of innovation which is unprecedented in the previous poets. Defamiliarisation in the compound nouns such as Aieneh Nagahan is a title from one of his book which shows the innovation. In this article the collection of Tanafoseh Sobh has been investigated.

344 - Determining Neighborhoods of Priority for Regeneration in Worn-out Urban Texture Based on Innovation Adoption Theory (Case Study: Torbat-e Heydarieh)
Rostam SaberifarIntroduction: Since one-third of the country's population lives in 141,000 hectares of worn-out areas, the regeneration of these textures is one of the main concerns of the country.

However, the plans to organize these textures have always been one of the most challenging urban programs, and it is difficult or almost impossible to find successful examples among them. One of the main reasons for this is people's skepticism about the results of such plans and the low acceptance rate of innovation.Research Aim: It seems that if these projects are implemented in appropriate and selected places and their positive and useful effects are tangible to the people, the acceptance of new approaches will be accelerated and the cost of implementing the projects will be reduced while their success will be guaranteed.Methodology: The study method was descriptive and analytical and the required data were collected using a questionnaire from a sample of 300 experts, local officials, and ordinary people. The collected data were analyzed using different statistics with the help of SPSS software and TOPSIS model.Studied Areas: The present study was conducted in the city of Torbat Heydariyeh. This city has the highest distressed urban testures but the least study has been done about it.Results: The results of the analysis of research findings show that the index of economic status of encouraging residents to accept the regeneration plan, is in the first place with an average of 3.06, the index of cultural categories is in the second place with an average of 2.99, and finally the index of social dimensions is in the third place with an average of 2.79. The findings showed that the best starting point for the regeneration project in this city is the Shahid Bahonar neighborhood, which has the highest score among the other three neighborhoods, and in Veblen's theory, it is the reference group.Conclusion: If city officials focus on this neighborhood instead of implementing the project in all distressed areas, and achieve deliverable results, the implementation costs will be significantly reduced while increasing the probability of success of the project.

It is essential to promote process innovations in sugarcane planting for sustainable growth and competition. This study was conducted to analyze the effective key factors of process innovations in the sugarcane industry. It is applicable from an objective aspect and the required data was collected through qualitative methods and meta-synthesis. This method systematically studied thirty-three articles related to the research objective among 405 primary articles. Final articles were selected based on inclusion criteria. The validity of the research was confirmed based on the inclusion criteria, holding sessions with members of the research team, the use of an expert, and examination of the whole process for theoretical consensus. Reliability was also determined via the Critical Appraisal Skills Program. The effective dimensions and components of process innovation in the sugarcane industry include four dimensions, namely steps of innovation in the sugarcane production cycle that have been identified in the form of 45 components. The four stages of this cycle are "innovation in the process of planting", "innovation in the process of growing", "innovation in the process of harvesting" and "innovation in the process of processing". As the sugarcane industry follows innovation complexities, this research presents a map to understand the multi-faceted perspective of the process innovation. Through the classification of the components in vital stages, stakeholders achieve insight into transformational strategies and reinforce sustainable methods that are technologically advanced in sugarcane planting.

Var MoreThis question has always been put forward in the mind of curious people why some countries have developed termed in spite of very few natural resources and facilities while other countries have not developed in spite of having more suitable resources and facilities. Various factors such as economy, culture, geography, etc. are perhaps a background to answer this question, but there is a more important factor that, in similar conditions, causes the development of some countries and that factor is to consider human resource as a fundamental capital and how to use their abilities and talents. The phenomenon of creativity and innovation, like many peculiarities of human beings, are found in all mankind and it is these motivations and individual and environmental conditions that make the creativity factor vivid. Among the features of intelligent organizations are: systemic thought, easy accessibility to information and so on all of which have originated from the well-beginners of creative and innovative people. This article deals with innovation and creativity, as the most important Haman capitals, the relationship of brain and creative thinking, powers comprising mind capabilities, divergent and convergent thinking and the factors making innovations and creativity. The findings of this research indicate that with respect to increasing change and transformations of today’s societies, the organizational thinkers in the 21st century are different from the thinkers in the 20th century. Critical thinking following creative thinking has created a new approach in the human capital of organizations. Therefore, the organizations that have employed this approach are successful.

It is considered crucial for sustainable agriculture development and achievement of long-term food security. The review describes the diversity of innovation and relates it to agro-food sector. It also sheds light on different innovation models and explores their contribution to framing agro-food sustainability transitions. There are many variations in the use of the term ‘innovation’. Typical distinctions encountered in the literature are incremental vs. radical innovation and product vs. process vs. organizational innovation. A significant feature of the development of modern innovation thinking has been a gradual broadening of innovation scope as well as more attention to sustainability. The scope of innovation was broadened to include soft (social/organisation) innovations besides hard/technical ones. In fact, the interest has shifted from technological innovation to disruptive niche innovations fundamental for socio-technical transitions. Moreover, as a recognition of system complexity, frameworks such as the Innovation systems and the Multi-Level Perspective (MLP) were developed and promoted. However, despite positive innovation benefits, relationship between innovation and sustainability in the agro-food arena is far from straightforward. Therefore, focus is gradually moving from innovation process to its impacts in terms of sustainability and its contribution to sustainability transitions in agriculture and food systems.

The research population includes managers and experts from 30 top private companies active in the field of oil and gas projects. The research methodology is based on Kumar's classification, which is applied, interpretive, exploratory, and includes both quantitative and qualitative aspects. This study underscores the importance of efficient knowledge sharing as a means to foster collaboration among investors in the portfolios of the National Iranian Oil Company to compete with foreign competitors during sanctions.Upon reviewing the results of four scenarios derived from the game, it is observed that the rewards perceived by companies from knowledge sharing depend on the behavior resulting from knowledge sharing by other companies. The more capable an organization is in the influential factors of knowledge transfer and higher innovation, the greater the returns companies will obtain through cooperation. Sensitivity analysis regarding the costs of project cooperation, which arises due to the difficulty of implementing joint projects, shows that as costs increase, companies shift from a cooperation strategy towards a retaliation strategy and then towards a non-cooperation strategy. These strategies are determined based on aligning the results of the profit equation designed with three interrelated cooperative games: the prisoner's dilemma, the hawk-dove game, and assurance game.

In such a way that some interpretations are condemned and rejected and some are at the height of praise. This article has decided, to refer to the academic methodology and typology of interpreting the Qur'an with the Qur'an, (the Quran has self-enlightenment and explanation). While analyzing and finding the roots of the differences in the form of typology, to achieve awareness of this method and to conceptualize a framework that is based on the topics of the method. The methods develop and deeply interpret the Qur'an with the Qur'an. It is one of the most important methods of interpretation but the degree of monopoly quoting the Qur'an is different and has caused a difference in the result This article tries to pay attention to the typology in the form of three: interpretations of the Qur'an that are sufficient, only Quran: interpretations that combine Qur'an with Qur'an and the Qur'an with Sonna (narrations), interpretations of Qur'an with Qur'an and parallel other methods. In this typology, examples have been tried by citing examples in contemporary interpretations. I searched the scattered evidence in the interpretations and tried to achieve a typology with a coherent and understandable formation. This research does not intend to judge; Rather, with typology, it will pay attention to the subtlety of using the type of interpretation method and how to refer to the Quran. Manuscript profile -

In this paper, we propose a model based on Schumpeter economic theory using system dynamics analysis approach and also discuss on resilience and vulnerability of economy. Based on the proposed model, vulnerability of Iran’s economy and 5 other countries (i.e. Sweden, USA, Japan, South Korea and Indonesia) is forecasted for next 50 years. Major contributions of this paper can be explained in two aspects: first, the concept of economic resilience, that mostly expressed qualitatively, is explained quantitatively. Second, the concept of economic resilience and system dynamics are combined and the capability of studying different scenarios is provided. Five different scenarios are proposed in this paper and it is found that if the current level of innovation is double increased and decrease 50 percent Oil dependence, the vulnerability risk in Iran’s economy will decrease by 70 percent.

The basis of this theory is based on the theory of holistic or system theory. Based on this theory and its principles, although complex systems have a seemingly turbulent appearance, they actually follow a non-linear and intermittent regular order and flow and they may change at any time of a single day. This theory has changed the foundation of all sciences and created innovative ways to use computers, images and charts. In this paper, we tried to study the impact of this theory on economics and, in particular, on the theory and practice of this theory in other sciences, and the importance and necessity of paying attention to the theory and the various uses of this theory in other sciences.

In such a situation, the ability to choose the right approach to policy-making from a set of diverse approaches is very important. The purpose of this study is to provide a contingency framework for selecting the appropriate policy-making approach from the approaches of phased, adaptive, networking and dissemination of innovation under different environmental conditions. Using inductive qualitative theory-generating meta-synthesis method, theory is generated through the steps of data collection and sampling, intra-study and inter-study note-taking, and finally the establishment of dynamic relationships between variables. According to the findings of this study, in situations where predictive power is not present, the general policy cycle is useless. Under such circumstances, the power of forecasting should be increased first with the help of adaptive methods, and then the policy should be formulated with the help of one of the approaches of general policy cycle, open innovation, closed innovation or networking. The choice of each of these approaches also depends on the two variables of public participation and public innovation. Manuscript profile -

Interactions between different sectors of the region, including technical, commercial, legal, social and financial sectors, contribute to the development, protection, financing or regulation of innovation and technology. The dependence of innovation on the characteristics of regions has made it impossible to provide a single model for the development of innovation in the regions, and in fact, a diverse set of institutional capacities, tools and characteristics is needed for the development and management of present and future knowledge. Also important are factors such as regional production, regional environment, system of academia and research in the region, public management and the capabilities of private and business firms. Given the differences in the state of innovation in the provinces of Iran, this study seeks to present a smart specialization for the development of regional innovation ecosystem in Iran. To this end, by studying and reviewing previous studies and research, the requirements and components of smart a smart specialization have been identified and based on them an initial framework has been designed for smart regional eco-innovation development policies. Then, in order to present a native model for intelligent policy package design, East Azerbaijan Province, which has been institutionalized in science and technology policy discussions among the province's actors and activists, was selected and with using Multi Grounded Theory (MGT) method and using interviews with provincial managers, trade unions, industrial cluster and technology managers. The identified requirements and components were initialized in a local and regional context. The proposed model of smart specialization for formulating regional innovation development policies includes three stages: preparing the vision and priority areas of the region, analyzing the innovation ecosystem of selected areas, formulating a policy mix and implementing planning along with considering process considerations Manuscript profile -
