In the present study, the effects of oil price fluctuations on knowledge-based economy components and Iran's economical operations are investigated. Though this investigation, t is aimed to determine Iran as a source-based country in the knowledge-based module and to provide better solutions for economic policy-making of politicians and to use oil income in order to reach growth and sustainable development.
