The purpose of this paper was to analyze the functionality of the GILS standard in the development of the smart government. This research was conducted using documentary and observation methods. The statistical population of this research was the metadata elements of the GILS as well as the components of the smart government. A survey tool was used to collect the required data for the research. The findings of this research showed that the main components of the smart government are grouped into 18 axes with 75 partial components. To create a smart government, components like information technology, cyber security, transparency and access, digital identity, privacy and data security, interoperability, ethical and legal considerations, and digital empowerment have been proposed. The elements used in the GILS standard are placed in eight general categories, which are: simple description elements, subject description elements, URIs, resource formats and technical features, administrative details, administrative metadata, source/reference and access/copyright conditions. Each of these categories consists of several main and sub-elements. the findings of the research revealed that the GILS can be used in the development of a smart government in various dimensions. One of the strengths of this standard, which increases its functionality in the smart government, is the use of appropriate descriptive and management metadata to access government data. Determining and describing the required metadata. using metadata, storing metadata, managing and maintaining metadata, determining access and permissions are among the most important applications of the Government Information Locator Service in the smart government.

The purpose of this research was to design the business ontology of Ehya Sepahan company based on semantic web data models. This research was conducted using qualitative analysis and design method The population of this research was all the entities of Ehya Sepahan company, i.e. data resources, human resources, organizational posts, the desired processes of the organization and various departments of the mentioned organization, as well as the classes and attributes in the organizational ontology. Observation and documentary methods and checklist are utilized for gathering required data.The findings of this research showed that the entities of Ehya Sepahan company are devided to internal and external entities. On the other hand, the findings revealed that most of the attributes considered for company entities are presented in the schema.org standard. So, all the mentioned attributes for Organization, Person, Website, Product entities in the schema.org are consistent with the attributes needed to describe the company entities. On the other hand, the investigation of organizational ontology showed that this ontology has 9 entities and all these entities were used to design the ontology of Ehya Sepahan company. As a result, a suitable ontology was implemented for participating in the Knowledge discovery and Representation (KDR) software. In general, it can be stated that organizational ontologies are one of the efficient tools for accurate description and knowledge discovery of data entities of organizations that can be used to facilitate and speed up processes and decisions in the organization.

Inter-organizational knowledge sharing is crucial for the scientific, social, and economic development of societies. Knowledge sharing processes and systems are challenged not only by individual and organizational factors but also by social, technical, and political inter-organizational contributors. The majority of existing researches have focused on situations such as interactive supply chains, virtual organizations, and multinational organizations, so that it can be said that Inter-organizational knowledge sharing is neglected in collaborative processes. This paper examines inter-organizational knowledge sharing in a collaborative project in which independent public organizations work together for providing social care for students. This research aims to investigate the impact of the variables of knowledge worker, peers, inter-organizational knowledge-sharing system, organization, and coalition on sharing knowledge in multiple inter-organizational relationships. This quantitative correlational study employed a 44-item questionnaire, which was distributed among the system users in Alborz province. The sample size was calculated using Cochran’s formula, and for sampling, proportional stratified sampling method was used. The SmartPLS3 software was used to develop a confirmatory factor analysis model and structural equations, while SPSS software was employed for descriptive statistical tests. In this study, the impact of the knowledge worker, peers, sharing system, organization, and coalition on knowledge sharing via interorganizational knowledge sharing systems was confirmed, among which the variables of the knowledge worker and peers exerted the greatest impact on knowledge sharing which shows the main priorities of managers to improve knowledge transfer functions in this system.

Public libraries have become one of the biggest powerhouses for the production of knowledge and information by having various sources and references that their effective and efficient management can have a significant impact on the development of users' information literacy. The aim of the current research was to investigate the role of knowledge management in improving the information literacy of public library users and providing a suitable model. The research method was a combined method using the metacomposite technique, content analysis and Delphi to identify and categorize the components of management-knowledge and information literacy, and then the survey method. The statistical population included 284 librarians and 45582 users, 181 librarians and 497 users were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling. The data collection tool included two researcher-made questionnaires for knowledge management and information literacy, derived from the theoretical and experimental background of the research, which was approved by the expert team. The method of data analysis was structural equation modeling. The findings of the research showed that the level of establishment of four components of knowledge management in public libraries of Khuzestan province is higher than average. Also, the level of users' enjoyment of the eight components of information literacy is also higher than average. As a result, a proposed model, while confirming the main and sub-hypotheses of the research, showed that the implementation and establishment of knowledge management has been effective in improving the information literacy of public library users in Khuzestan province.
