The goal of the proposed research project is to further our understanding and clinical management of Canadian Forces service members and Veterans suffering from a complex medical triad of traumatic brain injury, chronic pain, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Over half of rehabilitation patients experience one or more of these complex medical conditions, often associated with […]

Computer administrators defend enterprises using tools that do not scale to the size of modem networks. As a result, malicious behavior in enterprise networks generally is W1detected, even when attackers do not attempt to be stealthy. One way to improve this situation may be through the application of social network analysis to the computer sectrrity […]

Superalloys are a group of high-perfornlance alloys which are widely used for high stress, high temperature, and severe wear and erosion/corrosion environments. Erosion and corrosion constitute one of the most challenging problems limiting the service lifetime of superalloys. However, due to the complexity of testing procedures and multiplicity of affecting factors as well as the […]

This research presents a conceptual model of the geography of capacity and explores, through a small-scale study, the experiences of capacity across the nonprofit sector at the individual, organizational and community level in three different locales in Canada. By identifying the varied nonprofit capacity needs in different socio-economic and geographic locations, and by examining how […]

System performance can be analyzed by measuring its operation, and by studying a performance model. Each has advantages: measurements have fidelity to the actual system, while models have predictive power. This work will join the two approaches, by creating a model from data collected from traces. If successful, this model will help Ciena to understand […]

The proposed study expands on my ongoing research into the intersection of heritage conservation and the generation of architectural waste. Specifically, it understands the relationship between building demolition and heritage conservation to be both technically and conceptually linked. With this, the study addresses the “crisis of accumulation” both of heritage sites (Harrison, 2013) and growing […]

Extrapolating from current market trends and financial growth in mobile technology, it is predicted that next generation wireless networks will be required to support about a 1,000-fold increase in data capacity to handle over 100 billion devices featuring peak rates of 10 Gb/s. Consequently, there is a rapid transition to devise and innovate novel mm-wave […]

Mycotoxins, such as deoxynivalenol, ochratoxin A and fumonisin B1, are toxins produced by moulds that can adversely affect human health as well as grain industry profitability. Mycotoxins are one of the most important barriers to competitive agriculture in the Great Lakes Region. Corn and wheat production are at the greatest risk of contamination, which is […]

The recently developed Positive Play Scale (PPS; Wood, Wohl, Tabri, & Philander, 2017) is the first ever questionnaire that can evaluate responsible gambling (RG) beliefs (e.g., knowing the odds of games) and behaviours (e.g., monitoring time and money spent gambling) amongst players. Importantly, however, the PPS was initially developed using exploratory statistical methods and with […]

Balch Exploration Consulting Inc. (BECI) develops low cost geophysical survey solutions to the natural resources sector. BECI recently built an unmanned helicopter for magnetic surveying for mineral exploration. The objectives of this internship is to equip the BECI unmanned helicopter with a custom-designed frame carrying two magnetometers recording simultaneously and to perform a demonstration survey […]
