Urban., 5(2): 69-76, 2015; pii:S225204301500013-5 Abstract Planning with the aim of development and reduction of regional inequality is one of the important issues in the developing countries. Knowledge and analysis of the conditions of areas in different respects is the first step in the process of regional planning. Today, overcoming time and place restrictions, information and communications technologies (ICT), as the axis of and the key to sustainable development and the most important criterion of development, has changed the appearance of the world and the lifestyles, and is indeed both the cause and the effect of development. Accordingly, this study attempted to assess the degree of enjoyment of ICT indicators in the towns of the province of Isfahan using a descriptive-analytical method. The towns were investigated on the basis of 23 ICT indicators, by using quantitative models of planning such as the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), cluster analysis, weight assessment of indicators using AHP, and ranking and stratification of inequality in the towns. Result show lack of balance and harmony among the towns in terms of enjoyment of ICT indicators, such that the city of Ahvaz (with a point of 0.8793) rank first and the town of Haftkel (with a point of 0.0423) rank last. Results of cluster analysis reveal that most of the towns of the province are underprivileged. Results also demonstrate a direct relationship between the size of the population of the towns and their enjoyment of ICT indicators.
