Scalable Verification of Imperative Programs

Deductive verification is a subdiscipline of computer science which ensures software reliability and safety by formally modeling and proving program behavior. It is currently difficult to apply by non-experts and scales badly with program size and complexity. Pluggable type systems, which annotate variables and sub-programs with types that describe their expected values and behavior, offer a light-weight alternative, offering more scalability and ease-of-use for less expressiveness and precision. Based on our previous research, we aim to develop a formal link between these two approaches, which allows programmers to use type systems where possible and formal verification where necessary to obtain formal safety guarantees for their software. We also aim to implement our approach based on existing verification tools for the Java programming language and to evaluate our approach on realistic programs with mutable data structures, which are so far not amenable to scalable formal treatment.

Conception d’un système de commande de portes palières (PDI)

Les portes palières sont des portes automatiques, souvent vitrées, que l’on retrouve en bordure de voie au niveau des quais des stations de métro. Elles permettent de séparer physiquement les quais et la voie de métro, dans le but d’empêcher toute intrusion non désirée. Ces portes sont conçues pour s’ouvrir uniquement lors de l’embarquement et du débarquement des usagers, et sont donc synchronisées avec les protocoles d’ouverture et de fermeture des portes du train.
DOORspec produit et commercialise déjà un système de communication entre le train et les portes palières appelé PDI. Le système existant, qui a fait ses preuves, gagnerait à être encore plus performant. Le but de ce projet serait de poursuivre le développement d’un nouveau système de communication, plus performant et moins coûteux. Cette réduction des coûts ne doit pas être réalisée au prix d’une réduction de la sécurité du système.

Decision-making for Sustainable Buildings

To contribute to society’s decarbonization goals, the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry must rapidly transition to low-carbon buildings. Low carbon construction materials and other building technologies are contributing to this decarbonization, but the rate of change for this transition remains low. A range of technical issues must be addressed to transition to low-carbon buildings, but the drivers and barriers to these changes often extend beyond the technology alone, and involve the interface of technical, economic, social (organizational, governance, and individual), and process issues. This research will explore these drivers, barriers, and decision-making across the techno-socio-economic domain through a series of detailed case studies of construction projects, examining both what worked and what didn’t to make the buildings more sustainable. The research will result in important lessons learned and recommendations for accelerating this transition to low-carbon construction.

Development of clinically adjustable method for immobilization of distal radius fractures

Wrist fractures are the most common injury treated in the emergency department. The current standard for treating these fractures is realigning the bones and applying plaster or fiberglass
cast to maintain position. Most often, plaster casts are used as the primary option and the patient gets a fiberglass cast after the initial few weeks. Although the current method works, it
is outdated, inefficient, and inconvenient for the patient and clinician. The casting quality check is often subjective and may result in errors or recasting the fracture. Our hypothesis is that introducing an immobilization method which is as effective as a plaster cast while adding adjustability properties would reduce the physician workload and quality of patient care. The expected benefit to the Praxis Spinal Cord Institute is that the spinal cord injured population has a relatively high incidence of bone fractures and the healing process is lengthy, therefore Praxis clients can potentially greatly benefit from an improved method of treating fractures.

Development of a Storm Water Re-Use System to Supply Non-Potable End-Uses in Multi-Use Community in London, Ontario.

Urban stormwater re-use is gaining acceptance in Canadian jurisdictions as a means to offset anticipated increases in potable water demand from urbanization and climate change. S2e Technologies has partnered with Queen’s University to determine if a net economic benefit can be achieved from potable water savings in large-scale stormwater re-use facilities in Canada. The new partnership between s2e Technologies and Queen’s will examine the economic feasibility of largescale stormwater re-use in a Showcase Community in London, ON. The aim of the proposed project is to perform a feasibility research study that analyzes the economic efficiency, the potential savings in potable water, and the peak-runoff reduction potential of large-scale urban stormwater re-use. The
research will generate fundamental knowledge about annual and seasonal variations in the water quality, supply, and demand for reclaimed stormwater as well as predictive correlations between regional hydrologic conditions, watershed characteristics, and the hydraulic performance of the re-use system that can be used for design purposes. The feasibility research is a first step in the development of large-scale stormwater re-use technology that will help Canada and Ontario compete in the global water market.

Environmental Stewardship Coordinator

The Environmental Advisory Committee has been conducting environmental sampling since 2008 in response to degrading water quality in a recreational lake setting. All indications point to cultural eutrophication (i.e. nutrient pollution) owing to shoreline development, boat traffic, use of fertilizers and leaky septic systems. During the past five years, the Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC) has been employing Saskatchewan Polytechnic Natural Resource students to assist with water quality sampling and environmental assessment. This year, the EAC would not only like to involve a student in field sampling and reporting, but also in a more proactive public education and community engagement capacity. The project will involve a single Intern working 3 days/week throughout the summer/fall months. Objectives of the study include: 1) coordination of volunteers and participation in field sampling activities including weekly water sampling and periodic waterfowl surveys; 2) summarize field sampling results into an online database including nutrient concentrations, monitoring sediment sources, transparency measurements, and waterfowl information; 3) planning and hosting a community event to report the results of environmental sampling and solicit community support for improved lake stewardship activities and results.

Dégradation des micro-plastiques par décharge électrique dans un liquide

Le couplage d’un plasma avec un milieu liquide est un projet de recherche très original, notamment en termes d’applications dans différents domaines et en termes de physique fondamentale.
L’objectif du projet est de réaliser une étude expérimentale de la dégradation de microplastiques par décharges électriques dans ou en contact avec l’eau. Cela permettra d’identifier des caractéristiques physico-chimiques associées aux décharges électriques (composition chimique, température) et les espèces chimiques présentes dans le liquide pouvant interagir avec le microplastique et ainsi le dégrader. La dégradation des microplastiques sera observée par spectroscopie et microscopie électronique afin d’observer des modifications en surface des microplastiques.
Les applications de ce projet sont axées sur l’environnement, et notamment la dépollution des eaux qui est aujourd’hui un enjeu majeur. La réalisation d’un procédé plasma permettrait d’améliorer la dégradation des microplastiques et de ce fait s’appliquer dans des stations d’épuration pour améliorer le traitement des déchets plastiques.

Autonomous decision making in materials acceleration platforms

Robotic experimentation platforms can enable faster materials discovery and optimization through automation, high throughput experimentation and standardization. However, an exhaustive search of a vast materials space with varying compositions, formulations, and processing conditions is prohibitively expensive.
Machine learning algorithms are widely used to learn from experiments performed by automated experimentation platforms and suggest the most informative experiments to perform next. This closed-loop approach of automated experiments and machine learning forms the basis of self-driving laboratories (SDLs). The goal of this project, which is embedded into the German Canadian cooperation project FLAIM (Using Flexible Automation, AI & Machine Learning to Commercialize Optic-Electronic Devices) funded by the NRC and BMBF, is to develop materials science specific methods of automated decision making in SDLs. The intern will be trained on how the FLAIM robotic platforms operate at UBC and develop machine learning algorithms specific to the search for optic-electronic devices.
