In today’s highly competitive world, the countries with strong economies are able to produce their products at a lower price, better quality and at the right time in the market, therefore, in the performance evaluation of economic of the organizations and project management, several factors are involved; the most important are: time, price, and product quality. In this dissertation, a new method for performance evaluation in the field of project management based on combining the concept of the golden triangle of the project and the techniques available in decision science is presented. At first, three major areas of the golden triangle namely time, cost, and quality are selected for... 

Airports are one of the most important elements of the aviation system that provide the ground infrastructure that is required for enabling or flight across the globe. Master Planning is currently the dominant approach to airport strategic planning. However, history shows that this approach can often result in costly mistakes. Because there are many stakeholders with conflicting objectives, deep uncertainty about the future, and many potential strategies, planners often narrow their scope by using a single forecast for the future, leaving out alternative strategies, and excluding stakeholders, resulting in a Master Plan that quickly becomes obsolete and may be opposed by some stakeholders.... 

The use of clean energy sources has become increasingly popular around the world in recent years. One of the most important of these sources is wind energy. Due to the high wind potential in offshore areas than on land, this study uses the integration of multi-criteria decision-making methods and GIS to identify the best areas for developing offshore wind farms in the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman. Criteria applied in this study are divided into two categories: restrictive criteria, such as recommended transportation routes and anchored restricted areas, and technical criteria, such as wind speed and water depth. After removing the inappropriate areas using restrictive criteria, the... 

The Iran-China 25-year Cooperation Program on the further economic development particularly energy area signed on 27 March 2021 by Iran, which suffered from many years of political and economic isolation and China, the second global economy. Energy transition is an essential issue in both country's energy systems which calls for a medium energy carrier that will be the natural gas. China is seeking for new natural gas resources in order to achieve its ambitious net-zero goals and Iran has targeted 50% reduction in its energy intensity. The necessity of supplying the natural gas for Pakistan and China through the CPEC (China-Pakistan Economic Corridor) by Iran is an important criterion in the... 

One of the most widely used approaches for managing Agile product development in large software organizations is the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). Additionally, many organizations use ITIL as a framework for providing services around these products. Neither of these management methods has provided a precise opinion on the other's domain, which can create a realm of ambiguity when implementing both of these management approaches simultaneously. This research attempts to mitigate the ambiguities associated with the concurrent use of SAFe 5.1 and ITIL 4 management methods by proposing a framework to facilitate their implementation. In this study, after identifying the gaps between these...
