modeling

This study aimed to design an optimal model for assessing the training needs of in-service education programs for teachers in East Azerbaijan Province. The research focuses on identifying and prioritizing the professional and educational needs of teachers, which are considered critical factors in improving the quality of education. A qualitative research method was employed using thematic analysis, with data gathered through semi-structured interviews conducted with educational experts. The analysis was carried out using MAXQDA software to extract meaningful themes and dimensions. The final model, developed using SmartPLS software, encompasses nine key dimensions: management and leadership, skills, social, administrative and financial, educational and cultural, competency, training and nurturing, knowledge and expertise, and psychological aspects. The prioritization of these dimensions indicated that the educational and cultural dimension (18.11%) and the administrative and financial dimension (15.75%) were the most critical, while the skill dimension (5.12%) had the lowest priority. The proposed framework offers practical insights for planners and policymakers to enhance the planning, implementation, and overall effectiveness of in-service teacher training programs.

The present research objective to reach common themes and a deep understanding of the lived experiences of the experts in the field of maritime transport to explain the process and develop the strategy control model with a resource-based view in the Ports and Maritime Organization. The research is based on the qualitative method and Strauss & Corbin (2015) Grounded Theory Method. To collect data, the in-depth semi-structured interviews were used with 24 participants, as maritime transport experts.The research findings show that strategy control is very context-oriented and affected by the aspects and factors resulting from the contextual factors including the identity of the organization, the context of the organization and individual variables. The starting point of the strategy control process with resource-based view is the category of managerial systems and infrastructures. The category of human resources is raised following the systems and infrastructures and finally category of main and support processes occur resulting in consequences. Quality of services or products, quality of processes and balanced consent of the stakeholders are due to the strategy control. Their outcome will determine quality of an organization as a major outcome resulting from the consolidated data and results.

Due to the significant and increasing expansion of online shopping in the retail industry and changing consumer behavior, one of the concerns of online retailers in this industry is to create loyalty and a sense of belonging among customers. The aim of this research is to provide a dynamic model for developing a brand loyalty strategy in the online retail industry. For this purpose, using the system dynamics method, the main factors affecting brand loyalty, recognition, and their relationships were determined in the form of a cause-and-effect diagram. Finally, using the cause-and-effect diagram and referring to the opinion of experts and the background of the research, a flow diagram was prepared. The dynamic simulation of the research has been done using Vensim software version 7.3.5 in the time horizon of 10 years, from 1392 (2013) to 1402 (2023) for online retail consumers. The validity of the model has been confirmed through the implementation of behavior reproduction tests and model sensitivity analysis. Then, three scenarios of a 70% increase in customer satisfaction, a 30% increase in customer satisfaction, and a 50% increase in improvement policies and strategies were proposed based on the opinions of experts, and the results of these scenarios were simulated. The findings showed that increasing customer satisfaction and improvement policies and strategies increase brand loyalty, which indicates business growth. Among these three scenarios, a 70% increase in customer satisfaction had a greater impact on brand loyalty. Therefore, businesses with the two arms of customer satisfaction and improvement policies and strategies can increase and control brand loyalty, which lead to an increase in the annual revenue of each customer.

Adopting an educational approach to management can be considered as a humanizing method for human excellence in addition to the outputs of training managers at the national level. It should be noted that in recent years, looking at comprehensive education in all fields and dimensions, including strengthening education-oriented models with educational dimensions is in the spotlight (Hassani and Sadeghzadeh, 1400: 45). The focal point of this view is the interpretation of the Qur'an in assuming an approach that is seen in the verses related to the characteristics of management and manager. In other words, in the Qur'anic view, investigating the manager's characteristics is not only for expressing managerial duties but the educational progress of the individual and society, which is the ultimate goal of the Qur'anic movement. For this purpose, it is necessary first to address the issue of which managerial indicators the Qur'an has adopted in the education journey and the next stage, what style and format has been used for this purpose. The same approach in a new perspective to the typology and modeling of macro management indicators in the Qur'an has been examined through this article. In this regard, the present study tried to identify the types of macro management in the Quran and extract the descriptive model of each one in a comprehensive assessment of all the verses of the Quran and provide a step towards enriching and broadly looking at educational processes by inferring educational implications.

Due to its multifacetedness, the current research has used a combination of qualitative methods of data collection, analysis, and coding. In the first section, the descriptive phenomenological method is used to refer to the verses of the Holy Quran. Phenomenology is a qualitative research approach that seeks to identify the inherent and unchanging meaning of the problem under investigation (Chan, Fang, and Chin: 2013, quoted in Longdridge: 2007). The steps of this method are: 1. proposing a research question based on the model "What is the inherent existence of the phenomenon?" 2. Targeted sampling 3. Data collection 4. Data analysis (Abedi, 2019). Of course, these steps are not linear and are used back and forth. Based on the above steps, i.e. the question about the inherent pattern of the research phenomenon, first a research question was proposed with the theme: 1. "What are the macro management indicators introduced in the Qur'an, and what are the descriptions of each one?" 2. Targeted sampling that continued until the theoretical saturation of the categories and in the current research plan resulted in the reading of all the verses of the Holy Quran. 3. In the third stage, data collection was done by library method and by referring to the text of the Quran. 4. in the fourth step, the obtained data were analyzed using the MAXQDA Analytics Pro, version 12-3, and by referring again to the studied texts and comparing the above description with these texts, the results were validated. In the stage of selective coding, the types of macro management in the Qur'an were obtained. In the last stage, the comparative study of the central and open codes led to the extraction of religious analyses and educational meta-analyses.

The results of the research in response to the first question of the research, that is, what are the types and categories of indicators of macro management in the verses of the Quran indicates that there are 59 open codes related to the types of macro management in the Quran, which are classified into three categories input (management requirements), process (management qualities), and output (management tasks). The first category is divided into ten core codes, the second category into fourteen core codes, and the third category into sixteen core codes.The results of the research in response to the second question of the research, that is, are there any specific descriptions or accounts and what is the final model in each part indicates that the frequency of data based on the number of cases, first in the section on managerial duties, then in the section on recommending suitable traits, and in the next stage in the section on items necessary for education was more; but according to the column chart, the amount of recommendation for managerial traits has more content frequency. In the requirements section, the most frequency is related to the necessity of obeying the people and the necessity of financial facilities, in the process section, the two main attributes of science and faith, and in the management duties section, the two sections of financial management and solving the disputes of the desired society.The results of the research in response to the third research question, i.e. what are the educational implications derived from the explanation of the types and description of the models related to macro management indicators in the Quran represents eight principles of education, which include the following: the principle of relying on effort, the principle of educational rights and duties, the principle of a two-way approach to the dimensions of management and education, the principle of summation between different tasks, the principle of organizational perspective, the principle of unitary management, the principle of authority and intimacy, the principle of commitment and expertise.

Based on what the results of the current research and previous research show, all management researches emphasize the necessity of applying Islamic management in Islamic society, because the propositions within the religion in the section of presenting the principles have a different basis and approach from the secular and materialistic approaches. In the second point of view, although the general principles of management extracted in intra-religious research have similar main characteristics, it should be noted that the model extracted from Islamic management must be systematic and comprehensive and can cover all management processes in its entirety. The approach that current research has followed at the macro level, but previous research has not been able to achieve this level of data extraction and analysis due to the granular approach.Finally, it is suggested that according to the systematic extraction model based on this article, the components of Islamic macro management in three parts of input, process, and output, in the narrative texts and the biography and Sirah (conduct) of Ahlul-Bayt (peace be upon them) being analyzed and the complete version of this model should be cited and used as a source of training for Islamic managers.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effective factors in predicting the academic performance of undergraduate students in the classification of four classes. To achieve this goal, the study follows the CRISP data mining method. The data set was extracted from the NAD educational system for the bachelor's degree in Shahed University for the entry of the years 2011 to 2021. 1468 records were used in data mining. First, the effective features on students' academic performance were extracted. Modeling was done using Rapidminer9.9 tool. To improve classification performance and satisfactory prediction accuracy, we use a combination of principal component analysis combined with machine learning algorithms and feature selection techniques and optimization algorithms. The performance of the prediction models is verified using 10-fold cross-validation. The results showed that the decision tree algorithm is the best algorithm in predicting students' performance with an accuracy of 84.71%. This algorithm correctly predicted the graduation of 77.88% of excellent students, 85.26% of good students, 84.69% of medium students, and 85.96% of weak students based on the final GPA.

Adequate comprehension of the challenges and influential elements of the religious tourism sector is necessary for its positive development. In this regard, the present research was conducted to present a model that can simulate the development of religious tourism in Yazd province by considering the influential factors. A mixed method (qualitative and quantitative) was carried out in this study, and the research method was applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of nature. The statistical population of this research included 12 theoretical and experimental experts. Questionnaires and interviews were used to collect data with non-random and purposeful sampling. In the qualitative section, the main and sub-categories of religious tourism development in Yazd province were identified using the thematic analysis method. Then, in the quantitative part, the identified influential factors were prioritized using the interpretive structural modeling (ISM) method. Finally, the criteria obtained from the qualitative research analysis were simulated using the agent-based modeling (ABM) method. Based on the research results, 35 initial codes, 12 sub-themes, and six main themes (religious tourism policies, economic, infrastructure, environmental empowerment, marketing, and cultural) were identified. Religious tourism policies were recognized as the most influential factor. Also, the results showed that at the end of the simulation period, the rate of religious tourism development in Yazd Province had reached 70%. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that tourism managers give particular attention to the influential factors that have been identified as having a significant impact on the development of religious tourism.

Various frameworks have been presented for modeling innovation ecosystems. Despite the overlap of some components, each one lacks some components mentioned in the other, which can damage their boundary object. Therefore, the current research deals with the typology of modeling structures of innovation ecosystems.

The current research is exploratory in terms of purpose, basic in terms of usage, and secondary research in terms of the method using the systematic review process. To collect data, the library method and the phishing tool were used. The research community included modeling articles of innovation ecosystems and the research sample included 17 articles out of 1321 primary references. The research strategy in the analysis of articles is based on comparative qualitative content analysis and the quality control of the research is based on the criteria for measuring the quality of qualitative research.

based on analyzing selective articles , The modeling constructs of innovation ecosystems were identified and categorized into three levels: (1) Axial construct (active and passive) (2) actor-level construct (role emersion and types of acting roles) (3) background-level constructs including environment (institutional and Macro environmental conditions) , capacities (hard and soft) and orienteers (foresight, ecosystem vision and ecosystem life cycle).

The findings of the research enable the policy makers to modify, align and rearrange its constructs in terms of the multiple dimensions of the innovation ecosystems, and by avoiding the asynchrony or dispersion of the decisions of constructs, smoothen the ground for adopting flexible and realistic policies.

The main purpose of this research is to determine the criteria and indicators to evaluate the effectiveness of the integrated management system in organizations with complex processes, for this purpose, in the form of descriptive-survey research and using the Delphi tool in two stages of experts' opinions to determine these mentioned indicators. And also the effective implementation of IMS in organizations, interviews and surveys were conducted. Then, using descriptive and inferential statistical tools, the results of the second round of Delphi were analyzed and the fitting of the integrated management system effectiveness evaluation model was done in the framework of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) conceptual model, and the final checklist and solutions for the effective implementation of the system integrated management was presented, also the results of the research showed that there is no significant relationship between the type of organization, the amount of work experience of experts, the life of the system, the duration of the implementation of the quality management system and the importance of landscapes, and in terms of ranking, there is a significant difference between the four landscapes of BSC There is no integrated management system in terms of importance in the effectiveness of the subject systems.

The real and profound scientific advancement of the country is a great ideal that will not be achieved except through careful and coordinated planning. Achieving this ideal and realizing the scientific authority of universities requires drawing the right path and identifying the basic components of the scientific authority of universities. The purpose of this study is to identify the effective components on the scientific authority of Imam Sadeq University as one of the scientific institutions with an existential philosophy of producing religious knowledge and also to structure these components. In this article, by reviewing the literature and theoretical foundations of scientific authority and also by examining the upstream documents of Imam Sadeq University such as 12 strategies of the Supreme Leader, vision document and mission statement of the university, document of macro goals of the university, document of comprehensive educational system and planning Curriculum of Imam Sadeq University, effective components in the scientific authority of Imam Sadeq University were counted. Then, in order to structure these components and interpret and explain the relationships between them using the structural-interpretive modeling method and receiving the opinions of 12 experts, the data were collected. The output of the model and the results of data analysis indicate the independence and underlying components of the university mission-oriented components and special educational procedures and systems that in Imam Sadeq University, these two components are the main distinguishing features of the university.

In recent decades, the general public of the world is involved in employment issues and problems. Has been. Now, if Iran wants to follow the path of the resistance economy considered by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, it must pay attention to the capacities of e-commerce businesses. The success of these businesses also depends on the strategies adopted by the founders and the business environment, which with a coherent model of commercialization of their business activities can advance the problems and challenges. Reduce themselves to a minimum. Therefore, the present study explains and designs the commercialization model of services provided by businesses active in the field of e-commerce. The present study is a qualitative research with the foundation data theory approach. The field of research has been the founders of start-ups and knowledgeable individuals in the field of commercialization of services provided by e-commerce businesses. In this regard, purposive sampling was used in Abenda and then the snowball method was used. The number of participants in the study using the theoretical saturation index reached 14 people. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and library and internship documents. The research results show 22 main categories that are drawn in a paradigm. At the core of the paradigm model is the commercialization of services.

Battle and defense are always risky and costly, along with consuming lots of manpower and time. Every nation, especially our beloved homeland of Iran, due to its geographical location, rich resources and special political conditions, is forced to spend this effort and money to establish security. But can these difficulties be managed by some means and at some periods of time? With the advent of computers, artificial intelligence and its widespread application in various aspects of life, human beings have in fact achieved a fast and low-cost agent. This use of artificial intelligence in battle is very common today. The purpose of this study is to obtain a systematic framework for battle simulation and then to model and implement a battle simulation which helps managers in order to make decisions. To create this framework, we gathered the history of its evolution, described the relevant perspectives and methods in battle simulation, and then we addressed the challenges ahead in simulating the chaotic phenomenon of battle, and explained the limitations of simulation. Then, the mathematical requirements for our simulation have been presented and fundamental components of a battle such as battlefield, soldiers and movement have been simulated. Soldiers also equipped with various functions which let them make dynamic and automated decisions and find a safe path. The present research from the perspective of method is an analytical, library, applied and extensive research.

The aim of this study was to provide a conceptual model of a comprehensive education system for the specific jobs of the regulatory organization. In terms of the type of qualitative research and research method, it was systematically derived from Strauss and Corben data. Potential research participants were all experts, elites and professors working in the specific jobs of the regulatory body. Theoretical purposive sampling was used. The number of participants was 33 people with whom a semi-structured interview was conducted and the individuals who provided the most information and data to answer the questions were selected and the interviews continued until reaching the saturation point and maximum information. Open, axial and selective coding methods, as well as MAXQDA software were used to analyze the information. The results showed: The obtained conceptual model has 673 concepts, 126 components and 18 categories and its categories include: causal conditions with categories: identification of effective factors in poor education, review of the current situation, quantitative status and qualitative factors of training, review In the job description, background conditions with categories: necessity of education, economic, social and legal factors, intervention conditions with categories: policy-making and review of job descriptions and categories of strategies, including: monitoring and evaluation, realistic needs assessment, review of training content and targeting, Implications are also with the categories: developing a comprehensive training system, motivating employees and purposeful planning.

Due to its geographical, historical, structural and inherent conditions, Iran includes all kinds of social, ethnic, and religious gaps and differences, so the tangible presence of various ethnicities, minorities, strata and subcultures in all kinds crate distinctions, differences and divisions. Aimed at investigating ethnic pressures in critical situations using a factor-based research method based on a draft plan,  the conditions and factors affecting the situation can be described. Each of the existing institutions that had internal relations and interactive structures, new features and rules for ethnicity were identified and theoretically examined. The findings of this study showed that among the various factors cannot ignore the effect of ethnic policies by different governments in Ethnic groups and the central government or the acceptance of the established system by the ethnic groups. In fact, whenever governments were able to hegemonic their ethnic policies, there would undoubtedly be a positive will among the tribes to maintain an established political system and a sense of belonging to national identity and solidarity that would lead to national solidarity.
