Cloud Computing represents a significant shift in how computing resources and services are being used. While it opens up an era of promising innovations, it raises significant security challenges which must be addressed for ubiquitous adoption of the technology. Malicious insider activities have been identified as one of the top threats faced by cloud environments. […]

Les buanderies Blanchelle souhaitent traiter leurs eaux utilisées pour le lavage de la lingerie et literie afin de les réutiliser dans un second lavage et minimiser le rejet dans la nature. Ces eaux usées sont contaminées par plusieurs produits, et nécessitent un traitement spécifique afin d’éliminer les différents contaminants dangereux pour la nature. L’objectif de […]

Ce projet de recherche a pour objectif d’optimiser un nouveau logiciel de calcul structural nommé Advance design 2016 de la compagnie Graitec afin d’inciter les firmes de génie-conseil à l’adopter dans la conception des bâtiments neufs. La méthodologie proposée dans ce projet permettra de développer et d’implanter des tests de validation au logiciel en question. […]

The energy-hungry telecomm industry is in need of power supplies with ever-increasing efficiencies to conserve energy and reduce carbon footprint. In collaboration with the industry partner, the proposed research project aims at developing a power factor correction (PFC) system, an essential component in a telecomm power supply, for achieving efficiency of 99% or above. The […]

In a multi-tenant cloud environment, several tenants share the same physical resources. To ensure security of tenants’ data and process, appropriate security measures should be implemented by the cloud provider at multiple layers. Particularly, appropriate controls for end-to-end network isolation must be put in place. The proposed research project aims at elaborating innovative and efficient […]

Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology demonstrates great ability of fabricating complex geometry and reducing buy-to-fly (BTF) ratio. The objective of the Héroux-Devtek R&D project is to build a relationship between post-fusion processes and material properties for additively manufactured Ti64 landing gear components. From the previous studies, promising heat-treatments were identified. In this project, studies will only […]

CAE is the world-leading supplier of flight simulators and training services. Intensive competition for scarce resource exists in the multi-project environment at CAE. Without standard evaluation and objective prioritization of projects, it is difficult to allocate resources in an efficient and optimal way. From the proposed research project, CAE can expect to receive a method […]

Properties of metallurgical coke are very important in production of iron using blast furnace. About 90% of the coking coals produced are used for this purpose. Coal rank was historically used to evaluate coal for production of metallurgical coke. Coke reactivity index (CRI) and coke strength after reaction (CSR) with carbon dioxide are now routinely […]

The main goal of this research project is to implement an associative memory module in a gene network. The idea is to use the theoretical work already done at the Signals and Systems Laboratory (L2S) and to apply it in the area of genetics. The proposed approach is innovative, as it combines techniques from two […]

La complexité de conception de robots souples est due à leur nature pluridisciplinaire (intégration de systèmes mécaniques, électronique et logiciel) ainsi qu’aux contraintes introduites par la non-rigidité des membres, ce qui met donc à rude épreuve la créativité des ingénieurs. Cette complexité est liée principalement aux multiples dépendances existantes entre les différentes composantes du robot […]

Predicting the quantity of mineral (gold, coper, etc) or hydrocarbon (oil, gas) extracted from a given deposit is difficult. One concern is the uncertainty in the resources underground. A few initial wells or drill holes give us access to an estimate of the quantity of resource, but there is great uncertainty because sampling can be […]

Meaningful parameters can be extracted from data that describes a person walking as time progresses. Gait asymmetry is one such parameter that has been shown to be correlated to the likelihood of a person falling. More generally, the variability in gait parameters can be used for human fall prediction. Currently, models used to describe gait […]
