In beginning of third millennium era, cities because of population growth and urbanization have been faced by increasing challenges such as urban poverty, lack of infrastructures, informal settlements, growth of pollutions, reduction of life quality, and finally growth of unsustainability. In this situation, finding new and less- cost solutions are more necessary for attaining sustainability. Therefore, this research reasons that smart- making, by having indicators of smart governance, smart environment, smart economy, smart mobility, smart living, and smart people, is effective approach for attaining sustainability (in economic, social, environmental and physical dimensions). Research method is correlation method, namely there is a logical relationship between smart- making and urban sustainability. Data gathering has been done using library and survey methods (by questionnaire, observation and interview tools). Information has been analyzed using descriptive and deductive tests (includes of multinomial Regression, Pearson correlation, One sample T-test, ANOVA Varian's, and Beta Coefficient). Case study is neighborhoods of zone 6 Tehran city, which are 18 neighborhoods according to municipality dividing's. Indicators reliability has been done using Cronbach's alpha, and their validity has been done using Face validity. Results show that there is a direct relationship between smart- making and sustainability that sustainability of nighbourhoods increases by growth of smart- making. Nighbourhoods of Arzhantin- Saei and Daneshgahe Tehran that have the most smart- making scale, simultaneous have the highest sustainability level, and Nighbourhoods of Ghezel Ghale, Gandi and Abbas Abad that have the least smart- making scale, simultaneous have the lowest sustainability level.

Tourism is a service industry which is mainly affected by the quality of services. Moreover, it can be stated that quality of services and tourists satisfaction are important factors in tourism planning, getting to which may help develop tourism. In this study it is intended to evaluate satisfaction level of tourism from the quality of catering services in Darakeh restaurants in Tehran based on SERVQUAL model. Research method is based on a descriptive-analytic method in this study. In this study library documents and filed studies (including observation, interviewing, and questionnaire) were data gathering tools. Data reliability was assessed by calculating Cronbach alfa to be 0.826 and data validity was assessed using content validity method (according to dear professors). Descriptive and inferential statistical tests (Wilcoxon and Pearson tests) were used for data analysis. Study statistical society included tourists who have used services of Darakeh restaurants and sample size was calculated using Cochran formula with random sampling. Results of study based on five qualities of service dimensions of SERVQUAL method, showed that highest and lowest gaps are observed in empathy dimensions with 0.77 quality difference and tangibles with 0.08 quality difference, respectively. Additionally, the relation between level of education and different dimensions of quality of services were assessed by means of Spearman Correlation Coefficient and a negative significant relationship was observed between income level and overall quality of service at 99 percent level.

One of the important issues in solving urban problems such as traffic is lack of recognition or evaluation of management solutions in this field. It's clear that through identifying & evaluating various solutions in this field, not only problem solving can be accelerated, but also waste of management costs can be reduced. So, the purpose of the study is identifying & evaluating management & planning solutions in controlling urban traffic in Tabriz metropolis. Kind of research in terms of nature is analytic – comparative, and in terms of goal is practical. Data gathering and its related information is done by library & field methods. In field studies, we have been used Delphi method (using expert's viewpoints) and after final approval of guidelines, the required information has been collected throng providing questionnaire. Data analysis is done by one sample T – test, K – s, Variance analysis and regression (in Spss software). Results from one sample T – test show that the Average amount of studied solutions in order to control traffic is generally higher than the average rate (3.95). Results from regression test also show that people participation approach with beta of 0.360 and smart transportation systems with beta of 0.329 have the most significant effect on traffic control in Tabriz and infrastructure solutions and plans and urban projects with Beta coefficient of 0.160 have had less impact on traffic control of Tabriz.
