        Competition and growth have made organizations to be always looking for competition advantages and the most common way to gain that is innovation. Now the main question is what can be the most important innovation in organizations? For this reason researchers focus on innovation and its types. They offer several models and patterns. Literature review indicates the presence of multiple and sometimes conflicting views. This paper, combines ideas from previous authors and proposes comprehensive models for classifying types of innovation. Information of assemblage method in this article is library method, and use of the internet resources and research method is a comparison between the past research conclusions and an integrating research. By comparing and integrating pervious viewpoints, three main dimensions are provided: 1- the focus area (result/ process) 2- type of approach (current / new) 3- types of change (radical/incremental). By using these three dimensions, a model is presented which consists of all types of innovations in itself and integrated different pervious scholars’ points of view. With this model managers can decide which type of innovation can be used in their agenda and where to begin work. Manuscript profile

        In a competitive business environment, developing and maintaining a competitive value service is vital for all companies; Technological innovation is a key factor for achieving this purpose that makes it more critical to pay attention to factors affecting technological innovation and how these factors contribute to the improvement process. On the other hand, identifying the most important dimensions affected from technological innovation within and outside the organization is a guide for managers in order to achieve the goals of the organizations; that reveals the importance of paying attention to this kind of innovation. A litrature review shows that many researchers have identified, prioritized and studied the impact of the factors. But there is no comprehensive research that collectively brings together all the factors and classifies them in certain categories. In this study, by reviewing previous studies, we tried to identify all factors using content analysis method, and categorized these factors as organizational and non-organizational effective and impressive. During the review, more than 20 factors were identified. then the dimensions and components of every factor were explained. The most important factor of technological innovation that is critical to pay attention to is the company's performance. But the decision about most effective factor can not be made. Therefore, organizations should pay particular attention to technological innovation in order to improve their financial performance. in order to improve performance, firms and organizations should look consider all the effective factors and try to control and improve the organizational factors specially in order to improve the technological innovation.

        Paying attention to the position and role of knowledge-based companies in advancing the country's economic and social goals is very important. On the other hand, the issue of dynamism and market turbulence in today's markets makes it even more important to pay attention to these businesses. The knowledge-based companies are based on innovation in business. However, the turmoil in markets and competition makes it important to pay attention to the dimensions of innovation strategies in different environmental conditions, and the business of students who do not consider innovation in line with environmental conditions may fail in innovation and will not perform well. The aim of this study is to investigate the strategic relationship between innovation strategies and business performance with the role of moderating market turbulence and environmental dynamics. The statistical population of this study includes 115 knowledge-based companies in East Azerbaijan province. In order to analyze the data, structural equation modeling method was used and the hypotheses were analyzed using AMOS software. The results showed that product innovation and process strategy have a positive relationship with business performance. However, the modification test results showed that process innovation performs better in high environment dynamics and product innovation in high market turbulence. Manuscript profile

        High-tech defense organizations, due to specific features such as: dependence on innovation, strategic goals, reliance on applied knowledge and dynamic nature, require more attention to Capabilities that are appropriate to circumstances, including innovation capability. More
        High-tech defense organizations, due to specific features such as: dependence on innovation, strategic goals, reliance on applied knowledge and dynamic nature, require more attention to Capabilities that are appropriate to circumstances, including innovation capability.Therefore, in this research, the effect of technological, product and process innovation and ambidexterity capability on the performance of defense products has been investigated. The research methodology is applied in terms of achievemen, exploratory and descriptive in terms of purpose. In order to localize the literature of the subject with the high-tech defense organizations in Iran, the Focus Group method was used. The required data in the form of a questionnaire from 58 defense organizations of the field of electronics (as a high-tech industry) Collected. Analysis of the data with the help of structural equation model (PLS SEM) has shown that the capabilities of product innovation, process innovation, ambidexterity and technology influence product performance. The research findings lead the managers of defense electronic industry to empower the organization in the field of product and process innovation, technological and ambidexterity capabilities.
