چکیده
Submitted: May 19, 2013; Accepted: Jun 29, 2013; Published: Aug 07, 2013 Abstract: It is commonly recognized that knowledge is the only source of core competence in the knowledge-based companies, but productivity rate of knowledge worker is always Low. This study seeks to identify factors influence on the productivity. In addition, it presents knowledge workers clusters and measuring productivity of knowledge workers in any clusters. Finally, it describes strategies that influence on knowledge workers productivity in any clusters. It is hoped that this paper will help managers to implement different corresponding measures. A case study is presented where this model measure at the Lead & zinc company (Zanjan, Iran).

Using Fuzzy Cognitive Maps for Prediction of Knowledge Worker Productivity Based on Real Coded Genetic Algorithm
Improving knowledge worker productivity has been one of the most important tasks of the century. However, we have few measures or management interventions to make such improvement possible, and it is difficult to identify patterns that should be followed by knowledge workers because systems and processes in an organization are often regarded as a death blow to creativity. In this paper, we se...

In this paper, we use a penalty method for solving the linear least squares problem with nonlinear constraints. In each iteration of penalty methods for solving the problem, the calculation of projected Hessian matrix is required. Given that the objective function is linear least squares, projected Hessian matrix of the penalty function consists of two parts that the exact amount of a part of i...
