Abstract
Providing Quality-of-Service (QoS) in many-core network-on-chip (NoC) platforms is critical due to the high level of resource sharing in such systems. This article presents a hard-built Equality-of-Service (EoS) and Differential-Service (DS) as subsets of QoS in NoC using weighted round-robin arbitration policy. In the proposed technique, packets can be injected with variable initial weights. An enhanced dynamic weight incremental technique is proposed that automatically increases the weights according to the contention degree that packets face along their paths. The proposed technique provides EoS for all packets that are injected with equal initial weights. Furthermore, the router's input...

Abstract
Most of the vehicle pollutants during emission tests are raised from catalyst inefficiency during cold start. Catalysts usually convert harmful emissions only when their temperature reaches around 250 °C to 350 °C. In this research, the vortex tube is implemented to recover the waste heat energy of exhaust gas during the cold start to improve catalyst heating. The experiments are conducted on the turbocharged direct-injection gasoline engine to extract the boundary conditions of numerical simulations. Numerical simulations are performed to evaluate the effects of different hot exhaust mass fractions on the flow regime and waste heat recovery. The results reveal that the level of turbulence...

Abstract
The interpretation of a vast number of cosmological observations in the framework of FRW models suggests that the major part of the energy density of the universe is in form of dark energy with still unknown physical nature. In some models for dark energy, which are motivated by particle physics theory, the equation of state and the contribution of dark energy to the energy density of the universe can be variable. Here we study structure formation in a parameterized dark energy model, and compare its predictions with recent observational data, from the Supernova Ia gold sample and the parameters of large scale structure determined by the 2-degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS), and...

Estimation of Origin-Destination Matrix from Traffic Counts and Cellphone Network Data (Case Study: Shiraz City)
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Zokaei Aashtiani, Hedayat (Supervisor)
Abstract
The trip demand information in the form of the origin-destination (OD) matrix is of significant importance in the transportation studies. Obtaining such a matrix by conventional methods requires a considerable amount of time, cost, and human resources. Traffic count and cellphone network data are two relatively inexpensive data that can be used for estimation of OD matrices as well as correction of prior matrices. The trip demand estimation problem is a bi-level model, and the gradient algorithm is one way to solve it. This study, by generalizing the gradient algorithm, attempts to a better use of the available data. In this algorithm, a complementary algorithm is used to solve the traffic...

Abstract
In this paper we investigate a simple parametrization scheme of the quintessence model given by Wetterich [Phys. Lett. B 594, 17 (2004)]. The crucial parameter of this model is the bending parameter b, which is related to the amount of dark energy in the early universe. Using the linear perturbation and the spherical infall approximations, we investigate the evolution of matter density perturbations in the variable dark energy model, and obtain an analytical expression for the growth index f. We show that increasing b leads to less growth of the density contrast δ, and also decreases the growth index. Giving a fitting formula for the growth index at the present time, we verify that the...

Abstract
Due to the growing complexity of today's digital circuits, the speed of fault simulation has become increasingly important. Although critical path tracing (CPT) is faster than conventional methods, it is not fast enough for fault simulation of complex circuits with a large number of faults and tests. Exact stem analysis is the most important obstacle in accelerating the CPT method. The simplification of stem analysis eliminates time-consuming computations and makes the CPT method more parallelizable. An approximate and bit-parallel CPT algorithm is proposed for ultrafast fault simulation for both stuck-at-fault (SAF) and transition delay fault (TDF) models. Time linearity, speedup, and...

Streaming Algorithms for Shape Fitting in High Dimensions
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Zarrabizadeh, Hamid (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this research, we investigate shape fitting problems in high dimensional streams and we provide lower bounds for the problems of minimum enclosing spherical shell and minimum enclosing cylindrical shell in streaming model. We will prove that no streaming algorithm can approximate these problems with constant factor with storage sub-exponential in dimension. More precisely, we will prove that every streaming algorithm that can solve these problems with storage sub-exponential in dimension, does not have an approximation factor better than√28 d1/3, where d is dimension of the input points. This is the first lower bound that has been proved for these two problems in high dimensional streams

Abstract
Question Answering systems are one of the hot topics in context of information retrieval. In this paper, we develop an open-domain Question Answering system for spatial queries. We use Google for gathering raw data from the Web and then in a few iterations density of potential answers will be increased, finally based on a couple of evaluators the best answers are selected to be returned to user. Our proposed algorithm uses fuzzy methods to be more precise. Some experiments have been designed in order to evaluate the performance of our algorithm and results are totally promising. We will describe that how this algorithm can be applied to other type of questions as well

Abstract
Magnetic catheters have gained popularity as a safer and more precise alternative to manually guided catheters, reducing X-ray exposure for medical professionals. However, achieving precise control of the catheter's tip remains a topic of debate. In this paper, we introduce a fuzzy controller designed to control the position of the magnetic catheter's tip with high accuracy in a controlled environment with a uniform magnetic field and a feeder mechanism, providing a 3DOF setup. We implemented the fuzzy controller using a dynamic Cosserat model of the magnetic catheter and conducted simulations to assess its performance. To evaluate the closed-loop system, two trajectory paths, one following...

Analyzing Microarray Data Via Learning DNA Cross Hybridization
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Motahari, Abolfazl (Supervisor) ; Rabiee, Hamid Reza (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
Gene expression microarrays include thousands of probes spotted on their surface to measure the expression level of a set of genes. Identifying the amount of a transcript level by hybridization, each probe is complementary to a fragment of a specific gene transcripts. Although probes are designed to avoid crosshybridization to non-specific transcripts, occurrences of cross-hybridizations is inevitable due to massive probes that are spotted on microarrays. The main question is whether these non-specific cross-hybridization have significant effect on the downstream analysis of gene expression microarray datasets. This thesis aims at answering to this question by considering datasets from...

Abstract
Increasing the lifetime and improving the performance of structures through redesign and optimization are important, especially in marine structures. In general, there are two main groups of marine structures: onshore and offshore structures. Most marine structures are offshore, and these are divided into two categories: floating or sunken. One of the important parameters in the design of sunken structures is the critical load resulting from the buckling of walls, which can cause damage to the structure. In the present paper, three rectangular aluminum and steel compartments of different conditions and sizes were modeled using design analysis methods. Then, different finite element analyses...
