Abstract :
Globalization is a process that has had a positive and negative impact on all aspects of cities today. Globalization has increased social inequalities and increased competition among cities by changing the role of cities and expanding city-to-city relations and changing their management system. Today, knowledge is a sustainable competitive advantage for cities to compete with other cities and for this, the new urban management system puts the city's development on the basis of attracting creative and innovative forces (which are the main pillar of creating knowledge and gaining competitive advantage for the city). City development based on creative and innovative forces is called urban development of knowledge base and the output of this model is the city of knowledge. City of Knowledge is an element for the development of regional economics. The need for the infrastructure necessary to create a knowledge city in developing cities and the uncertainty due to the complexity of the environment has made it difficult to predict the future in these cities, so that traditional planning is no able to respond. Future research methods and scenarios should be used to predict the future and explain the possible alternatives in different situations. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effective factors in the formation of knowledge city based on the role of universities and higher education institutions, especially in the city of Qaenat. In order to achieve this goal, 60 experts from universities, government, industry and 383 students from universities in the city and residents of the city will be consulted in the form of a questionnaire (for the degree of influence and uncertainty) and then the method Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM) using LISREL software, Friedman rank test, paired t-test and Pearson correlation test were used for data analysis using SPSS software. The results of this study showed that the five dimensions of the study (placement for creating favorable rules and policies, individual tendencies for communication, promotion of organizational structure for desirable communication, promotion of organization culture for communication, quality of intermediary organizations) due to the high average in The results have been effective in the success and creation of its masters in the study area. Eventually, the city of Qaen has its potential in creating a knowledgeable city in a desirable condition and has the necessary grounds for reaching and becoming a creative city of the knowledge hub. Then, the probable scenario in this area of Knowledge is the four scenarios of Golden Knowledge, The confused caravan, the Bermuda of knowledge and the soldiers without a commander, are here the chosen scenario, according to the research results of the golden city of knowledge
