BACKGROUND Assessment of the level of exposure to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) risk factors can be an appropriate basis for planning and implementing an interventional ergonomics program in the workplace. This study was conducted among workers of an Iranian sugar-producing factory to determine WMSD prevalence rate among production workers and to assess the level of exposure to...

Quantum Error Correction (QEC) is an important technique for protecting quantum information against decoherence and errors. This involves the design implementation of algorithms techniques to minimize error rates increase stability circuits. One key parameters in QEC distance error- correcting code, which determines number errors that can be corrected. Another parameter probability, quantifies ...

Large-scale quantum computation is likely to require massive quantum error correction (QEC). QEC codes and circuits are described via the stabilizer formalism, which represents stabilizer states by keeping track of the operators that preserve them. Such states are obtained by stabilizer circuits (consisting of CNOT, Hadamard and Phase gates) and can be represented compactly on conventional comp...

Quantum computation and communication rely on the ability to manipulate quantum states robustly and with high fidelity. To protect fragile quantum-superposition states from corruption through so-called decoherence noise, some form of error correction is needed. Therefore, the discovery of quantum error correction1,2 (QEC) was a key step to turn the field of quantum information from an academic ...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to ergonomically evaluate the work posture of dentists to examine their subsequent risk of developing musculoskeletal diseases. [Subjects and Methods] Scenes in which the three dentists performed procedures at their dental clinics were videotaped. The videotapes of the dentists' work postures were evaluated and analyzed by using the Rapid Upper Limb Asses...

Realizing the full potential of quantum computation requires error correction (QEC), with most recent breakthrough demonstrations QEC using surface code. codes use multiple noisy physical qubits to encode information in fewer logical qubits, enabling identification errors through a decoding process. This process increases fidelity (or accuracy) making more reliable. However, fast (efficient run...

 Background: The aim of this paper was the comparison of ergonomic risk assessment results (final score and action levels) for the entire body as determined using Quick Exposure Check (QEC) and Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA).  Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in which all 82 workers engaged in various processes with different activities in an anodizing a...
