In today's world, the only way to creating wealth in organizations and societies is gathering capitals of knowledge. The natural and human capitals turn into wealth when they are with the knowledge capital. Organization power today resets upon possession of knowledge-wealth as well as on taking all-out advantage of the collection of creative competencies of mind which in tum pave the ground for further development and progress. organizations and corporations have come to a conclusion that nothing but knowledge can enable them to gain an advantageous stance in today's world competition. Consequently, the employees of an organization, as the genuine possessors of knowledge as well as vitally important investments of the organization, have attracted immense consideration. The knowledge management, as an instrument can gather the existing knowledge and expands it, and distributes through organization. But, experiences of many of companies regarding knowledge management have failed. This means that not pertinent pattern has been adopted for assessing knowledge management which has been taken into account as a temporary and transitory process.
In this research, influencing factors of knowledge management have elaborated and a model for assessing knowledge management in industrial organizations of Iran has been presented on the basis of these factors. Besides, the level of knowledge management can, too, be identified through the said model. The factors include knowledge exploration, knowledge creation, knowledge exporting, knowledge distribution, knowledge expansion, and knowledge maintenance. Each of these factors further subdivides into other elements.
The research method is surveying and case study. Two large manufactures of automobile industry of Iran, which has credited the highest achievements in the field of knowledge management, have been singled out as the subject of research. By ascertaining relevant information from experts of the two large manufactures as well as through carrying statistical viewing of the data thus the final analysis and scrutiny conducted and subsequently necessary conclusions and suggestions submitted so as the aforementioned model could be able to demonstrate its practicality.

Multiplicity of Companies and competition among them, compel them to attempt to attain only one group of customers, because attaining whole of customers in such competition have been impossible; So companies think they need market segmentation and classification. Of 'course origin of this need return back to the past, am on the base of it simple segmentations have done. In this paper we argue new, advanced and progressive conceptions, overviews and approaches in market segmentation, for better customers recognition, facilitation selecting target customers, and more contentment for them, so that prosperity of firm be provided. These conceptions comprise hyper-segmentation (micro - marketing), mass customization and finer segmentation; Approaches also start from multidimensional segmentation, continue by latent class models fuzzy and overlapping clustering and cluster analysis, and finish by market segmentation using artificial neural networks. Method of artificial neural networks has discussed more.

The present research seeks to put to the fore Habermas's Communicative Action Theory as a decision framework supplanting existing decision - making models in managerial, economic, and consumer behavior disciplines. According to Habermas, rationality is not uni-dimensional and cannot be confined to its instrumental and strategic usages.
The Communicative Action Theory contends that results are not important per se but it is the process that assumes centrality. Therefore, and open view must be adopted towards the process and the results must be continuously viewed from a critical perspective. The Theory maintains that linguistic communication constitutes the essence of "communicative action." Habermas argues that we are constantly adopting a stance towards validity claims" inherent in communication. In this context, Habermas holds that human communication and especially dialogue are "rational" in essence. It is in this context that the present research seeks to reconstruct consumer decision-making model on the Web and to this end adopts the angulation approach, combining quantitative and qualitative research methods.
