In financial matters, portfolio can be interpreted as a combination or a series of investments hold by an institution or a person. Portfolio optimization is one of the most important concerns of investors for maximizing the portfolio in financial markets. The formation of portfolio is a vital and critical decision for the companies. In fact, the selection of portfolio is to specify the capital between different shares. So, selecting a portfolio by high returns rate and controlled risk is a matter noted by many researchers. The present ways of optimization the portfolio have not sufficient adequacy. Therefore, so many innovative algorithms are considered and used. Genetic algorithm can solve many optimization problems of portfolio efficiently. The aim of this research is to completely explain genetic algorithm when using it to optimize portfolio matters. The researcher tries to develop an approach based on a multi-objective algorithm known as NSGA-II to form a portfolio. 30 superior companies listed in Tehran stock Exchange are selected as the population and their data are used during 2007-2011. The results indicate that genetic algorithm designed is an efficient and appropriate means to help the investors to select a portfolio Manuscript profile

Development as a main concern of the governors, politicians, socio-economic planners has attracted so many attentions and regional differences in the process of national development are a main field of policy-making and planning. It is true that when the polarization of development is continued and caused to make a gap between their per capita income and other areas. Regional differences between the cities in West Azerbaijan Province have caused to evaluate development and underdevelopment of this area by using formal statistics and statistical model of numerical taxonomy. The results represent that closeness to international borders has no effect on the development, but linguistic and ethnic differences are a determinant factor in the level of development in these cities.

Applied research method is used in this survey. A questionnaire is used to collect the data required. In order to validate the instrument, appropriate questions related to each variable are extracted through valid sources and finally approved by authorities. To calculate the reliability of the questionnaire, Cronbach’s alpha is calculated to be 89. Since, the distribution of the data is normal, parametric statistical tests are used to testify the hypotheses. The findings represent that the media can be effective in making public organizations responsive by leading and training the public, unifying demands and monitoring and broadcasting.

Different areas of modern financial tools and processes activities contain the matters like innovations in financial tools engineering and risk management. Derivatives and especially stock exchange option is part of this innovation. Among all numerical procedures in calculating the value of derivatives and the risk sensitivity parameters of option, binomial models are widely used. In this study, call and put option prices and the parameters include Delta, Gamma, Vega, Theta and Rho are calculated for 37 active companies in autumn 2012 by binomial model. At first, based on the final prices in winter 2012, volatility of stock estimated as the standard deviation of the return provided by the stock of each companies and option contract is written on stock of the companies with a maturity of 6 months (expired in 22 september 2013). By analyzing the model outputs and surveying the movement and changes in stock price and option price by binomial model and also measuring option price sensitivity to the changes (changes in stock prices, delta, volatility, expiration time and interest rate) the risk management of trading positions taken by investors will be expressed.
