Providing an Algorithm whi? can solve the sear? problem using minimum resources(su? as time, memory and so on)has been ?allenged by computer science experts for many years. By discovering the quantum computer it can be asked that does the quantum algorithm provide a be?er solution to sear? problem? ?e answer is yes. In this thesis the grover’s algorithm, the quantum sear? algorithm using the quantum walk, probabilistic quantum sear? algorithm and finally the two-qubit grover sear? algorithm implementation in physical world will be discussed  

Worst case execution time (WCET) and energy consumption are two of the most important design constraints of real-time embedded systems and memory subsystem has a major impact on both of them. Therefore, many recent studies have tried to improve the memory subsystem of embedded systems by using emerging non-volatile memories instead of conventional memories such as SRAM and DRAM. Indeed, the low leakage power dissipation and improved density of emerging non-volatile memories, makes them prime candidates for replacing the conventional memories. However, accessing these memories imposes performance and energy overhead and using them as the code memory may increase the WCET.Furthermore, most... 

Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) which is one of the categories of Liquid Composite Molding (LCM) process, is considered as one of the most important process in polymer composite manufacturing. To improve this manufacturing method and reaching higher qualities, numerous modified methods has been developed. One of these modified methods is Vaccum Assisted Resin Trasnfer Molding with Flexible Tooling which is considerably applicable in manufacturing parts with high quality, large and complex geometry. Although, this manufacturing method has variety of advantages, there are some problems such as void formation making production difficult and dependent to experimental trial and error. So numerical... 

Fuel system is one of the most important parts of pulse detonation engine which has the responsibility of fuel, oxidizer and also purge gas in the different operational frequencies of engine. Although pulse detonation engines are sort of air breathing engines and purge gas and oxidizer one in the same unit in their structure, due to existence idea in the pulse detonation rocket engines coverage of functional condition, fuel, oxidizer and purge gas, will study it in three different structures.
In this study purpose is improvement of the pulse detonation engine of Sharif University which will provide as the possibility of safe functional condition and high operational frequency in... 

Parkinson's disease is the most common progressive neurological disorder after Alzheimer, which is associated with motor disabilities. One of the most effective ways to improve patient’s condition with this disease, is rehabilitation.Assessment of the patient during rehabilitation is very important in order to give a better understanding of patient's status to the specialist, but qualitative assessment methods in traditional rehabilitation are ineffective in fast and accurate evaluation of the patient's condition; and because of their need for patient’s attendance in clinic, they will incur huge medical costs. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to present a quantitative method to... 

Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease in which balance disorders are a common symptom. Clinical and non-clinical methods have been developed to evaluate the quality of maintaining balance. Clinical methods include questionnaires and tests that are scored by the therapist and therefore depend on the examiner's skill. On the other hand, there are biomechanical methods that do not depend on the therapist's skill. Posturography -based methods are among the biomechanical tests used today to assess balance. In these methods, some indicators are extracted from the patient's foot center of pressure that can measure the quality of balance. These studies usually examine the... 

Parkinson's disease, after Alzheimer's, is the most important and common progressive neurodegenerative disorders. There are various methods for assessing the quality of patients’ movements. One of them is biomechanical methods. The application of these methods in telerehabilitation has been considered by many researchers. Telerehabilitation improves the efficiency of the therapists and reduces problems such as commute costs, traffic stress, and patient fatigue.In the present study, 21 Parkinson patients were treated and evaluated remotely using SANA system. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the therapist absence during the tele-assessment and its impact on the validity and... 

Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients seriously suffer from instability and impaired postural control. Rehabilitation exercises help them to recover their ability through long-term practical sessions. For designing optimal tasks in each session, and in agreement with each patient’s state, it is essential to employ computational models and approaches.Objective: The goal of this study is to develop a computational postural control model of Parkinson’s disease in order to provide new understanding of the postural control in PD, and to gain insight on the effect of balance trainings on PD (the learning dynamics), from the view of this model.Methods: In the first phase of this study, the... 

Since the classical continuum theory fails to deal with the problems associated with defects, stress concentrators, and relevant deformation phenomena in solids, alternative approaches that can detect the atomistic nature of materials' fracture are required. The deficiency of the capture the size effect which yields delusively high values for some components of the stress field right on the edge of the stress concentrators, and its weakness in describing the complex interaction between small inhomogeneities, cracks and the like when they are only a few nanometers apart, are among some of the disadvantages of the classical approach. In recent years, however, atomistic methods are emerging to... 

Aluminum Bronzes have many applications in marine environments. These alloys suffer from both hot cracking and cold cracking. In order to overcome the hot cracking and cold cracking, Semisolid Stir Joining method and a proper thermal cycle was used respectively. Effects of temperature, stirring rate, and tool type were investigated in Semisolid Stir joining method. In this method, butt joint design was used in order to place specimens, and the specimens were heated up to specific temperatures (920, 925, 930°C). A stirrer (Cylindrical and Grooved tool) with three rotational speeds (800, 1200, 1600 RPM) was introduced into the stir weld seam. Welded specimens were cooled to the 900°C... 

The low female labor force participation rate in the Iranian labor market relative to the global average and even to countries that do not differ significantly from the socio-economic characteristics of our country is one of the important questions of the Iranian labor market. In this study, we seek to answer the question of whether the economic participation rate of married women will increase if the gender gaps in wages, job findings and job losses among women and men are eliminated in the Iranian labor market. To answer this question using household expenditure and income data and labor force data, we show that between the two categories of occupations, in terms of the share of women's... 

Shot peening is a cold-working process commonly used in industry to improve the fatigue performance, stress corrosion resistance and surface nano-crystallization of metallic parts. This process extends fatigue life via two mechanisms: Preventing the crack growth due to compressive residual stresses and, preventing the crack initiation because of increased material hardness. These mechanisms are the results of the bombardment of the component's surface with small spherical particles. In this research, an analytical model is developed for estimating the residual stress distribution induced by shot peening process. The modifications of the developed analytical model are related to...
