Abstract
One of the pillars of Iran administrative system reform roadmap and macro-administrative policies is development of e-government and administrative intelligence to facilitate service delivery to the public. So, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive model for introducing Smart Organization. It is conducted by qualitative approach framework using grounded theory method. To this end, 17 faculty members and experts in field of organization and management were selected using theoretical sampling method and in-depth and semi-structured interviews were conducted. Data were analysed in three stages of open, axial and selective coding. Thus 230 initial codes, 72 concepts and 17 categories were extracted. Then, the Delphi method was used to validate the model and 31 people were selected by snowball sampling based on their academic, research or executive in organization and management. A questionnaire based on model components was provided to them. The consensus index increased in the three rounds, so that the Kendall coefficient in the third round was higher than 0.7, indicating a strong consensus among the experts on the model components. Data analysis showed that inside and outside of the organization factors are causal factors; information technology, intelligent management, knowledge management, human capital, equipment and infrastructure, organizational structure and learning organization are contextual factors; developmental culture, trust, commitment, and organizational justice are interfering factors; Information technology governance and knowledge management are strategies for smart organization that have inside and outside of the organizational consequences.

Abstract
Problem Decorative and geometrical experiences are an integral part of Iranian art and traditional architecture in the Islamic era, which has provoked the acclaim of many pundits in this area. One of the challenges of contemporary Islamic architecture is the lack of discourse between traditional and modern approaches to create geometry and new forms.
Aims The purpose of this study will be to produce 3D geometric decoration based on the principles of Gestalt aesthetics so that these forms will be shaped by sound frequencies resulting from the reading of the Quran at the different tunes.
Methods To achieve the desired goals through library and field studies, firstly, recognition and classification of the Quran tunes, then examining the relationship between parametric architecture and music, has been used to analyze them from descriptive-analytical research methods. Then, the modeling methods and pattern deformation based on the principles of Gestalt aesthetics have been studied. Finally, three-dimensional geometric patterns are mapped into a computer simulation method with Rhino software and Grasshopper plugin based on audio input from the Quran.
The result of this study indicated that the mathematical relationship between parametric architecture and Iranian music can be used to create unique dimensional shells, coordinate with valuable features of context-based architecture,
Conclusion Mathematical language can be used as a link between parametric architecture and musical tunes used in the reading of the Quran. Also, 3D shells which are produced with the Islamic architecture approach can play an applied role in the beautification of the urban highways.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) belong to the superfamily transforming growth factor-beta. These molecules play a role in fetal development and differentiation of different cells. In this regard, two homodimer molecules BMP-2 and BMP-7 play an important role in the formation of ectopic bone So that two types of recombinant form are available for ectopic use. After binding of the homodimer BMP-2 to its receptor at the cell surface, the accumulation of homodimers of type I and II receptors results in a biological response within the cell. Despite the existence of recombinant types of BMP-2 and BMP-7 due to the dangers of their use, the strategy of using monoclonal antibodies to trap endogenous types is still a priority in research programs. Instead of using monoclonal antibodies, the alternative method is to use the natural receptors of the ligand in the body. In this regard, due to the proper Kd binding of the ectodomain component of the receptor II of the BMP molecule in this project, the expression and purification of this part were attempted to trap BMP-2 endogenous. The protein component of the type II receptor ectodomain was expressed and purified by the bacterial host, which, by evaluating CD, of this recombinant protein showed a similar structure to that of the natural type. Also, its binding to the BMP-2 ligand with ELISA was evaluated and then calculated as Kd. Based on the results, the type II receptor ectodomain can be connected to the BMP-2 with a suitable binding property at the nM concentration, and in subsequent studies, it can be used as an alternative to a monoclonal antibody to Trap endogenous BMP molecules.

Abstract
Aims: Contemporary architecture of Islamic countries as one of the common seasons of these countries, has always felt the lack of discourse between traditional and modern approaches to creating space in the design. So today's architecture has always been looking for creativity in the design process to make up for this shortage. Using the digital approach to redefining the process can help. In addition to beauty, decorations in Islamic architecture are the induction of concepts such as order and existential unity that are seen in the form of geometric and abstract motifs. Also, in Islamic teachings and the Holy Quran, a concept such as unity in multiplicity has been mentioned a lot. Redefining this concept with a digital approach to Islamic architecture decorations could be a new discourse between a traditional and a modern approach. In This study examine the role of digital approach in the manifestation of Islamic architectural decoration in the design process inspired by the teachings of the Holy Quran.
Methods: The research method that used in this study is "logical reasoning", using "analytical-descriptive" approaches with a qualitative approach.
Findings: The digital approach based on Bottom to Up method and focusing on the three areas of patterning and generative pattern, algorithm-coding, and digital fabrication redefine Islamic architectural decorations by changing the basic parameters and produces new patterns.
Conclusion: The fields of digital approach can design and produce Islamic teachings such as unity in multiplicity with geometric mathematical foundations in Islamic architectural decoration.

Abstract
Organizational forgetting is a very important concept and a complementary concept to organizational learning in knowledge management. Unlearning is often used as a synonym for organizational forgetting. Unlearning means discarding of old routines to make way for new ones. In unlearning, organizations remove their embedded knowledge intentionally. Type-2 fuzzy sets are used for modeling uncertainty and imprecision in a better way because of fuzzy membership function. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present a model for the assessment of organizational unlearning using interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) weights. This research is an applied one, and has been carried out according to mixed method in three phases. Based on the previous studies, in the first phase the dimensions of organizational unlearning were recognized. In the second phase the extracted components are prioritized using type-2 Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchical Process (FAHP) based on the opinion of experts, then the organizational unlearning model was designed. In the last phase to clarify the suggested model, an IT company is taken as a case. The survey population consisted of 45 employees and managers of the case. An important part of the results revealed how to use suggested model for unlearning evaluating. in addition, adjusted unlearning and operative unlearning have the best rank among organizational unlearning.

Abstract
Globalization process and the rapid development of information technologies have not only led to obvious competition between organizations, but this phenomenon can also be observed among universities. In this context, business intelligence (BI) is understood as a process that collects, analyzes, interprets, and disseminates high-value data and information at the appropriate time for use in the decision-making process. The purpose of this research is to provide a model suitable for higher education organizations and finally to measure the readiness of Shiraz University to implement the BI system. For this purpose, this study was conducted in four stages. At first, the factors affecting the readiness of the organization to implement the business intelligence system have been identified using the systematic review method, then the factors have been refined with the opinion of experts using the fuzzy screening method, and as a result, eight dimensions of management hardware infrastructure, project management, BI team, software infrastructure, BI users, organization and organization culture, and 44 indicators were identified and confirmed. After going through the mentioned steps, the identified factors have been weighted by the fuzzy best-worst method. Finally, the readiness of Shiraz University was measured using the obtained model and the opinions of 60 managers, experts and professors of Shiraz University, who were selected in a purposeful judgment, through a questionnaire. The results showed that Shiraz University has the most preparation in terms of business intelligence users, management, business intelligence team, organization culture, hardware infrastructure, project management, organization and business intelligence software infrastructure.

Abstract
Aims: Studies show that before the AI revolution; architectural design processes have always been linear and sufficiently responsive in previous eras; but today there is a serious need for revision. The main objective of the research is to methodologically redesign the digital architectural design process with emphasis on artificial intelligence applications.
Methods: From a methodological perspective, the digital architectural design process actually means breaking down a process into discrete components and patterns and summarizing these patterns in formats that can be understood and processed by a computer. The theoretical framework of the research is based on the highperformance architecture theory, and the analytical framework of the research is redesigned based on Jeffrey Broadbent's systematic-scientific view of the architectural design process.
Findings: The research findings are based on a methodological analysis of common architectural design processes, the characteristics of which have been examined and analyzed in three periods. Finally, the findings are rearranged and presented based on Broadbent's systematic-scientific view.
Conclusion: The results of this research have shown that top-down and one-way processes, which are known as conventional approaches to architectural design, do not meet the needs and requirements of digital architectural design. While in recent years, nonlinear architectural design processes have been welcomed. Therefore, the research has designed a multi-faceted structure to combine bottom-up processes with top-down processes; in a way that it can be used in artificial intelligence-based processes.

Abstract
The convention of child's right as the principal instrument in protecting children has paid a momentous attention to the "Best Interest of Child" and the Committee on the Rights of the Child has introduced different dimensions of this matter in its general interpretations. The principle of "Best Interest of Child" is a matter implemented in all protective and development issues in regards to Children's Rights. The term of "Interest" in the convention has been used in a vague and general way thus can be interpreted in the appropriate way in diverse legal systems. the Committee on the Rights of the Child also certainly called attention to, is that children and their views should be taken into consideration in all programs and actions, including budgeting, developing programs and strategies and so on. The Committee's important recommendations are to safeguard the dignity of children in line with the principles of human rights and to refrain from coercive action against children. This research seeks to answer the fundamental question of what is the best interest of the child in accordance with international practice and international human rights law? Contemplation in the case law suggests that although it is difficult to discover the best interpretation of the child's interests, and especially in the jurisdictional and culturally diverse context, it is a function of the particular circumstances of each case; It will lead to a conceptual development of child rights and a minimalist understanding of the universality of its obligations in practice and theory.

Abstract
The recently emerged Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been identified as an pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) and has affected all sections of human society including agriculture, livestock, manufacturing, and industry. In this research, we investigated the impact of COVID-19 on Iran’s livestock and meat market by using an equilibrium displacement model. The prevalence of the Coronavirus has had the greatest economic effects on rising exchange rates and has reduced exports in Iran. The results also show that the factors of the Coronavirus (exchange rate and exports) have the highest effect on Iran’s meat market. The rising exchange rates and reduced exports lead to higher prices and lower quantities in the meat market, which increase the suppliers’ welfare at the retail and farm levels. These results show the negative effect of the outbreak of Coronavirus. Corona outbreak increases price at the farm and retail level, therefore, farm and retail quantities fall. Since the impact of an increase in the price is much greater than the effect of reducing production, producer surplus increases. A policy conclusion of this research is that the current situation in Iran is difficult for the poultry and livestock industry because of the need for foreign currency and the abuse of market power in the distribution system. Farmer cooperatives can overcome these problems because their objectives are to serve farmers and their goals align with farmers goals.
