Variance of the data also showed that the majority of characteristics tend to the variance of zero - at least that the response of the self - similarity in statistical population. It seems that in the presence of the management system of urban regeneration, private and public institutions in this process and intervention can lead to an inefficiency of interventions regeneration of the urban tissue. The component of integration and coordination (social capital within and between the institutional base) in the first priority titled period renaissance and institutional arrangements in the face of the tissue - worn out in the second period as a priority, growth of knowledge and learning the institutional and institutional development capacity in the third period. The life cycle of achieving sustainable management of urban regeneration of the tissue in Iran show the average priority and scored the index.
