The purpose of the research is to design an ontological model of electronic learning objects based on the standard of learning object metadata in the organizational repositories of Iranian universities of medical sciences .In the research, the observation and survey method was used and the matching of the standard metadata elements of the learning object with the metadata elements of the learning objects in the organizational repositories of the research community was discussed. Then, the questionnaire was provided to the experts to perform the Delphi technique in order to modify and validate the identified elements. Finally based on the identified entities, the ontological model of electronic learning objects was designed based on the learning object metadata standard in the organizational repositories of Iranian medical sciences universities. The findings showed that the designed ontological model consisting of 162 classes with a total of 189 types of relationships and 2220 samples located in the classes was illustrated.Based on the identified entities based on the learning object metadata standard, the ontological model of electronic learning objects was designed in the organizational repositories of Iranian universities of medical sciences. The result of ontology is to present a conceptual structure consisting of concepts in an explicit form in a formal format. By applying ontology based on learning object metadata standard in the structure of organizational repositories of medical sciences universities of Iran, it is possible to fix possible errors in the semantic level of data, including improving retrieval and designing intelligent systems.

The purpose of this research is to study and identify the importance of access points to digital information resources from the perspective of humanities researchers. In order to achieve the goal, a research was conducted with a descriptive survey method, and opinions and faculty members’ opinions and views about access points to digital resources was studied. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire that was distributed among all the faculty members (138 persons) of the Institute for Humanities and Cultural Studies. The validity of the research tool has been confirmed by five subject experts. Findings showed that the most important access points that were chosen by humanities researchers for all types of digital resources were the top three title, author, and subject access points. Of course, by studying the findings for each type of digital information resources, it is possible to reach the cases that were recognized as important for those types of digital information resources. Among the specific fields of digitization, the format and volume of resources were more important. Results of the research indicate that most access points and retrieval fields of various digital information resources are important from the point of view of humanities researchers, and the awareness of them can be useful for librarians, social catalogers, designers of information software and databases, and managers of scientific websites.

the main purpose of present research is study of relationship between cultural collectivism dimension and Knowledge sharing among graduate student of Tabriz University. The method of this study was descriptive-survey. The population of this study was Graduate Students of Tabriz University and with using of Cochran formula and proportional Sampling 650 person selected as a Sample size. The data gathering tool was a questionnaire. Correlation test results show a positive and significant relationship between cultural collectivism and student's knowledge sharing. There is also a positive and significant relationship between cultural collectivism components with knowledge sharing. The results of the correlation test indicate that the vertical individualism have a negative and significant relationship with knowledge sharing. T-test results show that knowledge sharing does not have significant difference based on gender of students. The results of the regression show that the horizontal collectivism and horizontal individualism components of cultural collectivism explain 24% of knowledge sharing variance. Therefore, universities and higher education Centers in order to achieve success in the sharing of knowledge among graduate students in their policies and plans should be pay special attention to strengthen the Students group and team working skills.

This research aimed to develop an ontology of weak narrators in hadith sciences, focusing on the semantic relationships between terms indicating narrator weakness. Using Protege 5.5.0, we conducted a text content analysis of 150 weak narrators from "Ma'rifah Al-hadith" by Mohammad Reza Behboodi. The ontology consists of two classes: "weak narrators" and "words denoting weakness." We identified 107 terms related to narrator weakness, supported by 645 examples. Analysis revealed a diverse range of criticisms, often shared among weak narrators. These criticisms included belief issues, negative traits, affiliation with deviant sects, and narration-related weaknesses. By constructing a semantic network, we linked specific narrators to relevant terms and examples. This knowledge base enables efficient retrieval of information about narrator weaknesses. Expert opinions from both hadith sciences and ontology were incorporated to enhance the ontology's accuracy and relevance. this work is the result of a research project in the National Library of Iran, the stages of which were carried out under the supervision of supervisors and finally it was approved by the Research Council.

The present research was conducted with the aim of identifying the components of knowledge concealment. Method: The method of the current research was qualitative using meta-composite type. The statistical population of the current research included all the articles, researches and theses that were conducted in the field of the research topic between 1391-1401 and 2012-2022 AD. Sampling was done in a targeted and complete manner. In this research, 355 related researches were found, and after review, 50 researches were removed due to inconsistency in terms of title, 30 articles in terms of inappropriateness in terms of abstract, and 20 articles in terms of content inconsistency with the subject of the research, and finally the articles were 255 researches decreased. The data was analyzed using the Strauss and Corbin model in three stages of open, central and selective coding. The result of the qualitative phase was the discovery of 555 concepts, 155 sub-categories and 25 main categories, which were presented in the form of a conceptual model.

Information anxiety is one of the emerging challenges of human life, which has emerged and expanded with the development of rhizome thinking under the shadow of post-structuralist thinking. The aim of the current research was the conceptualization, limits and dimensions of information anxiety. The method of this research is a systematic review that was conducted in 1402. From the 170 articles found, according to the selection criteria, 24 studies were found to be eligible and included in the present study. The findings of the research showed that the concept of information anxiety is ambiguous and its limits are not fully known. Information anxiety actually comes from the growing gap between the amount of available information and our ability to process and understand it, and this type of anxiety is fundamentally different from concepts such as library anxiety and internet anxiety. This type of anxiety has three basic dimensions of information overflow, inability to understand and process information, and inability to access and find available information. Information anxiety has many negative personal, psychological and social consequences such as feelings of disappointment and frustration, feelings of abandonment, loneliness and existential loneliness. Developing information literacy, practicing self-care and setting limits on information consumption and changing epistemological attitudes about information can help reduce feelings and severe stress associated with information anxiety.

Today, data, as one of the valuable assets of various organizations and industries, plays an important role in the development and progress of businesses. In fact, every organization uses different sources to collect its data, one of which is the web platform, where a lot of data is produced and published by different users or even robots all over the world every day. Examining, researching, studying and analyzing such data can provide useful information and knowledge for the organization. For this purpose, during the past decades, various tools have been developed that have greatly helped in extracting information from the web platform, among which we can mention Request, Selenium, Scrapy, Beautiful Soup, etc. libraries in the Python programming language. However, each of these libraries faces challenges. In this article, by studying the Selenium library and considering the existence of many challenges in it, we have presented a solution for time management and improving the challenge of its Asynchronous. Our experiments show that the use of the proposed solution increases the accuracy of the information retrieved from the web platform and thus improves the challenge of Asynchronous and also reduces the time to retrieve information from the web platform.
