SAP is a multinational software corporation that makes enterprise software to manage business operations and customer relations. SAP Labs Montreal focuses on supporting the consumer products industry. It provides these industries with the software infrastructure that allows its customers to run end-to-end processes including the capturing and analysis of sales transactions. Sales transactions include for […]

There is actually a societal challenge here in north America regarding the end-of-life management of used beverage cans (UBCs). China is no longer accepting several of our recyclable waste streams like UBCs. UBCs are made of aluminum that contains some level of magnesium and manganese to modulate the properties of the body and the lid […]

Environmental pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumption has prompted significant worldwide activity to find effective renewable/regenerative energy solutions. Solutions where power is produced and waste heat from the exhaust is recuperated have great potential, especially for distributed (decentralized) power generation (DPG). The latter approach reduces energy losses that are caused by the […]

Nanomaterials as carriers are very suitable for the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs in cancer treatment. Because nanomaterials as a carrier platform have strong permeability and retention delay in the treatment of tumors, they can passively target tumor cells. Metal organic framework ?MOF ?is a kind of porous material with large pore size and high specific […]

In this project, we replicate the dispatching operation of mineral transportation trucks using a discrete-event simulation model, then we use the data generated by the simulation model to train an AI algorithm to dispatch trucks to loading/unloading shovels. The use of AI in this scheduling problem will improve the system’s performance

The wide-spread adoption of digital pathology has opened new horizons for histopathology. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are able to operate on digitized slides to assist pathologists with different tasks. Whereas AI involving classification and segmentation methods have obvious benefits for image analysis, image search represents a fundamental shift in computational pathology. Image-based search for digitized […]

The goal of this project is to develop and integrate the required technology to create food wrapping materials that can tell any untrained consumer if the food is safe to eat, without the need to use sophisticated equipment. This will be achieved by incorporating a barcode-type biosensor on an antifouling food wrap. The biosensor is […]

More than one in five seniors aged 65 and over will fall at least once a year, many of them repeatedly. Fortunately, most of these falls don’t result in major injuries but often the fall victims are unable to get back up on their own and require assistance from someone. For those that live alone […]

Le projet consistera à concevoir et analyser un sous-réseau d’antenne qui devra s’intégrer à une grande antenne réseau, formant le coeur d’un radar à synthèse d’ouverture (RSO). Ce RSO sera utilisé sur une satellite à basse orbite et sa mission sera d’obtenir des images de la couverture, et plus spécifiquement de la masse de neige […]

The residual bacterial and viral contamination that remains on surfaces after cleaning in healthcare and palliative care settings is particularly lethal during a pandemic. Due to inevitable overcrowding and long shift hours, slipups occur. A technique to monitor surface cleanliness, and particularly to detect the presence of SARS-CoV2, is required to ascertain contamination and, if […]

La plupart des centrales hydro-électriques de grande envergure du Canada ont été construites il y a environ 50 ans. Durant les prochaines années, plusieurs d’entre-elles devront être modernisées avec des technologies beaucoup plus avancées qu’à l’époque. Pour tirer profit de ces nouvelles capacités de communication et de contrôle, le recours à des simulations numériques validées […]

The project objective is to understand and apply the metallurgical fundamentals for the heavy gauge steel product development. The major tasks can be divided into two groups: (A) the precipitate investigation through conventional and advanced characterization techniques such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and (B) the implementation of thermomechanical processing models for the rolling schedule […]
