Complex products and systems (CoPS) are products, systems, services and infrastructure assets that are costly and require advanced technology and are known as capital goods. The technological complexity of CoPS is an important competitive advantage, for companies and even governments. As these products are customized, the development of them is considered as projects. In compare to common projects, the difference in the nature of the CoPS products has led to some differences in managing them. In this study, we are going to explore the differences in the CoPS projects and how they are managed by exploring the comprehensive CoPs literature review from the project management perspective. In the initial search, 84 papers were identified. After studying abstracts, the number of related articles was reduced to 22. After studying articles, we classified them and examined how to managed CoPS projects. According to the results, managing CoPS projects are diffrent from some aspects such as integration management, communication management, scope management, project planning and control, time and cost management, risk management and stakeholder management in compared to common projects. Organizations should consider these differences in managing CoPS projects. The results also indicate that the number of studies carried out on CoPS projects is not very high, especially in Iran. The most important identified gap research is the lack of applied studies in various industries, including communications, defense industries, and so on.

Organizations that have the technology and the ability to use it can recognize and exploit this opportunity. Technology is one of the most vital components of commercial and industrial organizations. The existence of efficient information technology system is the basis of IT capabilities. Active companies in science and technology parks, which have become an important element in today's knowledge economy, should be active in identifying entrepreneurial opportunities and taking advantage of the available opportunities in the most desirable way. Therefore, the present study attempts to investigate the effect of IT capabilities on the identification of entrepreneurship opportunities by survey method and based on interpretive structural modeling in the Smart-PLS software environment in growth companies in Zahedan science park and technology. The statistical population of this research is all employees of companies in Zahedan science park and technology. According to Morgan table, 130 people were selected randomly. The tool used in the research was a questionnaire. Reliability of the questionnaires was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha and combined reliability, and their validity was confirmed through convergent and divergent validity. The results of data analysis showed that IT capabilities have a positive and significant effect on the recognition of entrepreneurial opportunities by 0. 472. Therefore, resident companies in Science and Technology Park should pay attention to the role of IT capabilities and its dimensions in identifying business opportunities.

In the existing literature on entrepreneurship, there are various approaches to determining the factors affecting entrepreneurial activities, which can be explained in various disciplines of science. As an interdisciplinary study, entrepreneurship consists of aspects of economic, historical, psychological, political, social and cultural studies. All of these studies focus on entrepreneurship from different points of views. Since, entrepreneurship is recognized as an appropriate tool for stimulating economic growth, increasing innovation and productivity and reduction of poverty, identification of determinants of entrepreneurial activity allows to design appropriate policies for increasing productivity and economic growth in a single economy. Due to the wide range of effective factors on entrepreneurial activities among countries, several studies have examined various effective factors. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the economic factors affecting entrepreneurial activities at the macro level, which, given the literature available in this field, has a greater impact than other factors.

Finally, the collected resources were classified into two categories of supply and demand factors. The factors on the supply side include economic development, technological development, globalization, direct foreign investment and financial development, and demand factors include education, population growth, population density, income level, income gap, access to finance, Tax, labor market flexibility rules, political structure, immigration, unemployment rate, institutional characteristics and macroeconomic environment.

Cloud computing has emerged as one of the most important discussed topics among Enterprise Information Technology (IT) professionals. Small and medium enterprises with low budget and limited human resources are one of the major groups that tend to use cloud computing for achieving the benefit of this technology. A multitude of factors influence the adoption of cloud computing in Knowledge-based companies. These decisive factors must be systematically evaluated before making the decision to adopt cloud-based solutions. The purpose of this study is to identify these factors and Ranking them and determine the extent to which they influence the adoption of cloud computing for Knowledge-based companies. Therefore, the project describes a research model that is based on the diffusion of innovation (DOI) theory and the technology, organization and environment (TOE) framework. Based on previous study, research model was developed to test Twelve (12) variables. Data was collected by survey questionnaires from a sample of 59 Small and medium enterprises that all of these enterprises were in The Knowledge-based companies. 59 experts and decision makers in information technology department from those Small and medium enterprises were selected to fill the questionnaires. The research methodology was descriptive-survey and SPSS software version 23, Minitab EDI 17 and EXCEL EDI 2013 were used for data analysis. In summary, the results of this research have shown that the innovation of IT decision makers and information intensity have significant influence on adoption of knowledge-based companies with cloud computing.
