Abstract: Nowadays knowledge management systems are expanding in organizations with a high speed. Until now, it was mentioned to statistical and quality subjects in most of knowledge management theme; and mathematical and quantity subjects were rarely used in these research. In this paper, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model as one of the Linear programming models is developed for evaluating knowledge management systems in which knowledge infrastructure capabilities (structure, culture and technology) as system’s inputs and knowledge process capabilities (knowledge acquiring, converting, application and protecting) as system’s outputs are considered. And finally knowledge management system’s efficiencies in four organizations were evaluated as a case study.

2- Challenge of Intellectual Capital Development through Higher Education (summary)
Abstract: Higher education is the engine of growth for any nation through intellectual capital formation. This imparts necessary knowledge and skills to the people enabling them to contribute towards national development. Higher education is more critical to the developing countries. Higher education can also be a means of social mobility through intellectual capital formation. This will be possible when education is market driven, effective, dynamic and accessible by all. Funding is central in both capacity building and facilitation of access to higher education. The conventional mode of public funding suffers from some inherent limitations in quality and quantity. Private funding tends to be expensive and inaccessible to the average citizens and poor. The middle ground is a quasi-public funding with participation of the stakeholders. Alternative funding to facilitate accessibility can be arranged through Knowledge Based Area Development (KBAD). Students can avail loans refundable after gainful employment. KBAD can be made sustainable through initial funding by the state, donor agencies, community and civil society. Community participation would impose a sense of responsibility to repay the loans which in turn would create pressure to make higher education relevant and marketable. Loans can enable people from every segment of the community to avail higher education. Bangladesh made attempt to ensure quality and increase accessibility by establishing non-government universities as of 1992. Yet finance hinders accessibility by the poor. IUBAT practices a seed-model of KBAD providing repayable loans to students enabling them to break out of poverty trap which if extended in wider scale in any society, could lead to community self reliance for national growth through cultivation of intellects.

3- Legal Infrastructures of Trademark Protection as an Intellectual Capital (summary)
Abstract: This article is directed to a discussion of the legal issues related to the trademark right as an intellectual capital in Iran. Iranian entrepreneurs, traders and research and development companies have to get familiar with the laws and regulations about trademark registration, transition and enforcement measures, in order to establish a knowledge-based business. According to the article 30 of the Patent, Industrial Designs, Trademark Registration Act, November 2007, "Trademark can be any perceptible marking distinguishes goods or services of real or legal persons from similar ones." In addition, the trademark protection is properly secured only by registration (Art.31). Moreover, the protection granted by law to trademarks is valid for 10 years and can be renewed several times. Till the registration is valid, the mark owner has the exclusive right to conclude license or franchise agreements , as well as to sell his trademark ,all of which must be registered at the Industrial Property Office. Afterwards, as a company`s success in establishing a recognized trademark takes years and costs the owner a huge sum of money, the right holder has to be so careful in practicing his rights and duties, especially when a confusing similarly mark emerges in the market or he enters a new franchise contract. In these cases, if the company fails to exercise his rights in proper ways, it may lose its reputation and direct income. Thus, being aware of the given privileges of the Act, enforcing them on time and complying with laws and regulations is vital to help the value of one`s trademark survive.

5- Assessing the Privatization of Iranian Banking Industry: An Intellectual Capital Performance Perspective (summary)
Abstract: Privatization is the full or partial transfer of ownership of public sector assets to the private sector. To assess the banking privatization of Iran, we used the efficiency measures to investigate the impact of privatization on Iranian banking performance. Some of the largest public and private banks of banking industry are studied from Intellectual Capital(IC) point of view. IC has been identified as a set of intangibles that drives the organizational performance. We compared intellectual capital measures across the two sectors to evaluate the impact of privatization on banking performance. The results indicate that there are vast differences in the performance of the two sectors. Our empirical results support the hypothesis that private banks are more efficient than state-owned banks (SOBs). So the privatization has increased the efficiency of Iranian industry.

6- Promoting Cooperative "Takaful" to Commercial "Takaful" Status for Societal Regeneration: A Case Study of A. A. Zubairu Initiative (summary)
Abstract: This paper is an attempt to bring to the fore the concept of Takaful (Islamic Insurance) as a social solidarity measure for economic empowerment from the grassroots to a higher level, so that it could occupy its rightful position in the Nigerian economy and beyond. More than ever before, the Nigerian economy and other developing economies of the world are in dire need of self-empowerment strategies that would ensure effective social regeneration, as they suffer from prolonged poverty and deprivation. Takaful arrangement is hereby presented as a necessary component of an effective financial system in any serious economy and, so, all its elements are to be integrated into the economic system for the achievement of the noble objective of sustainable national development. Adopting a case study type of research, the paper traces the historical background of the A.A. Zubairu “Takaful” Initiative, its operational guidelines and policies and its impact on the participants and the immediate community. It is discovered that the Initiative, which has existed for about 20 years, has succeeded in empowering the participants to own plots of lands, construct owner-occupied houses, own vehicles, enhance capital bases of their businesses and other economic powers. It is also found that the Initiative has the prospect of graduating to Commercial Takaful where it could make multiple positive impacts on the economic lives of the participants, the immediate community and the economy as a whole. It is recommended that to alleviate poverty, ensure effective capital formation and complement the contribution of the banking industry towards sustainable economic development in Nigeria and beyond, Takaful schemes should be floated in all communities, by sincere community activists, and they are to be synergized and galvanized, by the activists and the government, for the cropping up of mega businesses that could compete with conventional businesses.

10- Determinants of Optimal Capital Structure, A Case of Pakistani Companies Listed In Karachi Stock Exchange (summary)
Abstract: In this research leverage is analyze against four independent variables to find the determinants of optimal capital structure, of KSE listed firms is observed for the period 2001-2006. Regression analysis is applied with the assumption that there is no industry or time effect. Four explanatory variables are used, i.e. cost of equity, cost of debt, retained earnings and gross sales to evaluate their result on leverage ratio. However, using fixed effect dummy variable regression, the coefficients for a number of firms were significant. Outcomes endorse the prophecy of trade-off theory in case of cost of debt whereas the cost of equity, and retained earning variables fail to confirm to trade-off theory. Size of firm variable neither confirms to the prediction of trade-off theory nor to asymmetry of information theory. Our results also prove that size of firm is not significant for every sector of economy as it was found insignificant for textile sector. This study discovered that only two variables, Cost of equity and retained earnings was found to be significant, while cost of debt and size of firm were not found considerable. Further study concludes that after controlling for the bias in the data that creditors do not look too much towards the retained earnings of the firm rather they prefer the security of the fixed assets. Finally, the research does not find any evidence that size of firm influence the decision of leverage of the sample firms.

13- A Management Commentary(MC) framework for IC statement and reports in non or pre-regulatory environments: SMEs Prospect (summary)
Abstract:  One of the main necessities in knowledge-based economy is requirement of knowledge intensive resource management. This type of management requirements has been prioritized by two prospects. In one side, rising the importance of knowledge and information as a key resource in enterprises and also, as a key competitive advantage, has changed the resource paradigm. In other side, the new regulatory requirements in stock markets have been made the new management, measurement, accounting obligations for firms. So, the importance of identifying and taking into account the invisible and intangible parts of firms has been raised. In this way, the rate of the intellectual capital management in each organization as a multifactor will show the ability of acquiring, detecting, localizing, transforming, measurement, accounting, utilizing and reporting. This factor directly will affect the market value of firms. But in some medium and small size enterprise this importance has been multiplied. Because theirs structures have not compatibility with large enterprises structure and across to this, big portion of invented manners and models in the field of measurement, accounting and reporting of IC will not consistence. This paper will discuss the characteristics of these enterprises according to ICM requirements and possibility of a management commentary for these enterprises. Then a measurements framework will be proposed by suggesting specific indexes, indicators and metrics. The financial relations will be formulated in both investment and cost approach for this type of enterprise. At the end, based on past experiences, standards and guidelines, a Management Commentary (MC) framework will be introduced as a substitute for IC statement in these types of enterprises.

16- Intellectual property and intellectual capital: A new classification model (summary)
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to determine the value of intellectual property (IP) in modeling intellectual capital of knowledge-based organizations. Firstly, a comparison between IP and physical commodities has been made to illustrate the importance of IP and its role in the new economy. Secondly, we propose a model of intellectual capital that, along with its sub-factors and measurement indicators includes the following three key factors: Stock of knowledge, flow of knowledge, and enablers of knowledge. This model is a useful tool for managers to identify areas with most need of resources regarding intellectual property.

17- Partnership and the leaky bucket community development principle as a key point in social capital accumulation (summary)
Abstract: The term partnership describes a very wide range of contracts and informal arrangements between firms and communities. A partnership is the relationship existing between two or more persons or entities that join to carry on a trade or business. Each one contributes money, property, labor or skill, and expects to share in the profits and losses of the business. Partnership has also emerged as an increasingly popular approach to privatization and government-nonprofit relations generally. While in principle it offers many advantages, there is no consensus on what it means and its practice varies (Brinkerhoff, 2002, p.1). This paper aims to describe some types of partnerships between governments, communities, new social movements and firms. And also leaky bucket principle as a major importance in partnership for participatory planning process that encompasses early stage of development, shift in system governance, and accumulation of social capital. The aim of this paper is also to review the principle of the leaky bucket in global and international partnerships. And have a closer look at its processes and short comings.

Keywords: leaky bucket principle, global and international partnerships, development, Social Capital

21- Accounting for intellectual capital and intangible assets (summary)
Abstract: The rise of the ``new economy'', one principally driven by information and knowledge, is attributed to the increased prominence of intellectual capital (IC) as a business and research topic. The key to competitive success is likely to be the ability to create, leverage, and develop specialized knowledge and intellectual resources. This new reality presents both challenges and opportunities for accounting, a discipline which has traditionally found it difficult to deal with the recognition and measurement issues surrounding intangible assets. Although the significance of intellectual assets has gained its importance in the corporate world from a strategic sense and in the knowledge economy and despite the need for regulatory frameworks of accounting for these value creating factors in the firm, accounting for them in financial statements has not kept pace with it for several reasons. These include the conservative approach of the profession, and leaning towards reliability over relevance. In this article in addition to introduce intellectual capital concept, the accounting for intellectual capital and intangible assets, the involved challenge and the future way are examined.

22- Formulating Generic strategies for Intellectual Capital Management based on Strategic Reference Points (summary)
Abstract: Organizational strategy is a general plan or decision making pattern which determines the way to achieve objectives; and it is a guideline for implementation at lower levels. Intellectual capital (IC) strategy is a functional strategy which tries to direct intangible assets for value creation in the organization.
Developing a framework for formulating IC strategies, is the core subject of this article which is presented based on theory of strategic reference points. Decision making indicators in this portfolio includes environment and structure, which produces four IC strategies as follows: 1) exploratory; 2) learning; 3) acquisitive; and 4) collaborative. Environment indicator represents degree of attention to intellectual capacities in the internal environment (human capital) and external environment (social capital), while structure indicator is indicative of traditional or network structures. The link between these two indicators formulates IC strategies. For example, in the circumstances that organization has a traditional structure, and management relies on human capital capacities, IC strategy is an exploratory one. In the opposite point, collaborative strategy focuses on the social capital capacities in a network structure.

23- Intellectual Capital and Transformational Leadership Style: a Case Study in Iran Telecommunication’s SME (summary)
Abstract: As intellectual capital is increasingly becoming important, organizations need a special form of leadership that has been compatible with strong abilities and skills, and establish commitment to lifelong learning. Appropriate leadership is requires for intellectual capital (IC) development; however, there has been little empirical analysis of the theoretical relationships among organizational capitals and leadership styles. This article examines the relation between level of intellectual capital (IC) and leadership styles in SME’s of telecommunication industry. A survey of 159 managers from telecommunication industry was undertaken using the four IC categories scale and Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ). Based on the results, a significant positive relationship was found between the four-category IC model and transformational leadership. Also human capital and End-customer relationship capital were as a direct factor of transformational leadership. Further, analysis revealed that IC has a negative relation with laissez-fair leadership. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

25- Intellectual Capital as a Factor of Production (summary)
Abstract:  Some believes that discussions regarding Intellectual Capital Management have emanated from Intellectual Capitalism and increasing importance of knowledge and information on creation of wealth and value. Nonetheless, economically there are some controversies regarding the role of knowledge among the means of production. According to economic growth theories, technological knowledge as a kind of explicit knowledge is an independent factor of production. But according to neocapital theories, all kinds of knowledge including explicit and tacit knowledge are subsets of neocapitals like human capital and intellectual capital.
The essential differences between knowledge and capital has led us to conclude knowledge is an independent factor of production, thought its necessary to take into consideration the role of tacit knowledge on economic growth models, as well.

26- Impact of organizational citizenship behavior on social capital (summary)
Abstract: Organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and social capital are new and inter- disciplinary concepts that have been focused by researchers since 1990s and it seems they have mutual influence. OCB consists of discretionary individual behavior, not explicitly recognized by the formal reward system, which promotes the effective functioning of organization. Social capital refers to relationship and norms that shape the quality and quantity social interaction of society. The importance of these concepts separately encouraged number of researchers of last decades to analyse, demonstrate and make them clear in different aspects. So, present research investigates the impact of OCB on social capital among personnels. In this research, with investigation of OCB literature, six aspects adopted from extractive model of a number of scholars such as: Organ, Graham, Bolino, Smith, Podsakoff, Koopman, Nihef and Mary were used. And in order to study social capital Nahapid and Ghoshal classification were used.
The research is measurable-descriptive type that has used library sources, testing theories and Field method in literature review. To do so, a questionnaire of 44 multiple –choice (5 choices) question with Likert spectrum has been gathered of 143 personnels of 5 branches of Shiraz Social Security and analyzed. Achieved results of Piersson correlation coefficient (efficiency) show that there is a meaningful relation between OCB and relational social capital aspects. The results of regression multi-variables analysis show that three aspects of altruism, participation and sportsmanship of perssonels are the strongest predictors of social capital. Also no Significant relation has been seen among social capital and demographic variable such as: age, gender, education, and job experience. According to Freedman test, priority of organizational citizenship behavior aspects is the form of compliance, courtesy, participation, altruism and sportsmanship. And, priority of relational social capital aspects the form of cooperation, trust, commitment, integrity and competence. Also frequency distribution of level of personnel citizenship behavior and social capital show that they are more than middle level in branches of Shiraz Social Security organization. So according to the results, OCB plays an important role in organizational performance by development of social capital.

29- Analysis of universities’ Intellectual Capital(IC) based on knowledge management view (summary)
Abstract: Development process brings us a “sustainable” situation, if it is based on scientific development. Scientific development depends on development of human resources. So in final analysis, human resources show the characteristics of development process. The formal higher education system is one of the important mechanisms for promoting human skills & knowledge. Of course it is not equivalent with learning.
Intellectual capital (IC) is a new approach which helps us to face with barriers and problems of higher education system. It is the key successful element for knowledge-based organizations – such as universities-. The managers of universities have to identify their IC, measure and manipulate it effectively. Thus it is necessary for them to focus on factors are influencing the success of higher educatiob system.
In this paper these factors will be classified in three categories based on knowledge management view. They are: processes, structures and foundations. Each category will be described in detail. Also a case study will be presented which show IC management related to higher education.

30- Human Capital, Knowledge Based Economy and the Position of Iran among Developing Countries (summary)
Abstract: Today, transferring from a resource based economy to a knowledge based economy is considered to be a central objective for most countries. To achieve this major goal, countries prepare and put to action different policies. In general, countries that have been successful in outlining their policies have benefited from the experience of other countries, even those countries that are at a lower stage of development than themselves. Through consideration of the experiences of different countries they have outlined and put to action optimal economic development policies.
In order to identify the strengths and weaknesses of Iran’s knowledge based economy and its situation in Iran as compared with that prevailing in certain selected developing countries, the KAM method has been considered in this paper. The results demonstrate that economic incentives and the fundamentals in Iran are weak according to those indices that were considered. For example, the degree of readiness of Iran's education base is greater only than countries such as Yemen and India. The results also show that the innovation and information base and communication infrastructures in Iran compared with other countries under consideration are not strong. Knowledge economy indices for Iran are lower than in other middle income countries and, if compared to other countries in the MENA region, experience a similar position.

31- Studying the relation of social capital with knowledge sharing: a case study (summary)
Abstract: In an economy based on knowledge, organizations use their employees’ knowledge as a resource for creating and increasing organizational value and their success depends on their ability to manage their rare and volatile resources. One of the important organizational capabilities is social capital which can greatly help organizations to create and share knowledge as well as to create “permanent organizational advantage”. The purpose of this paper is to study the role of social capital in knowledge sharing in Research Center of Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). The research method is descriptive and analytical, and population consists of experts and managers working in that center. The results of this study show that there is a significant relation between social capital and knowledge sharing in the aforementioned center. In other words, social capital changes in three dimensions namely, structural, relational, and cognitive, which will lead to knowledge sharing changes in two dimensions namely, attitude and expectations, and quality.

32- A Cognitive Approach to the Value of Information (summary)
Abstract: Valuing information is becoming more complex with databases become larger in organizations and old fashioned methods are not usable anymore because of two simple reasons, first they are not designed for such volume of data and more important because they are too realistic and mostly never mention decision maker’s approach to the problem. On the other hand information became more demanding. Using data mining and to be more specific classification concept, a model has been devised that duplicates the decision maker’s decision making cognitive model in a classification model and then evaluates the information by that model. The contribution of this research was a method that uses classification models that have been built based on database information and decisions or realizations of decision maker that could be any operation database such as a medical data base, to estimating the value of information. The value of information will be estimated buy its contribution the making of the model.
