The growing demand to establish comprehensive BIM standards is demonstrated by a proliferation of both national (BIM Task Group in the United Kingdom and BIMForum in the United States) and international (buildingSMART Alliance) organizations working to that end. Adding to the sense of urgency is pending legislation in the United Kingdom (2016) that will require […]

The primary goal of the intern project is to research and propose implementations that enable streamlining the APP (application layer) interface to flow through the SDN layered model. The target solution would enable a SDN-standardized approach of handling the APP communication with the data plane. It involves developing an Application plug-in for the Open Day […]

Concerns about the regimenting and homogenizing effect of technological advancement on the distinctness of place and culture have triggered conversations on regionalism and identity in architecture leading to renewed interest in and deliberation on vernacular building traditions. This research proposes a study of the historiography of Indian Architecture with special emphasis on the Architecture, Urbanism […]

Blu-Ray Disk Framework offers content protection system which is intended to protect audio/video media against piracy. The Blu-Ray Content Protection System consists of three individually working components: Advance Access Control System, ROM-Mark and BD+. Each component works collaboratively with the other in order to protect high-definition content distributed on Blu-Ray discs. The ability of a […]

CA Technology wants to design the right software products well. Their user interaction designers recently began interviewing end users in their workplace and developing archetypal descriptions of typical users called ‘personas’. The good thing about personas is that they encourage designers to take a people-first perspective, which is great most of the time. But, sometimes […]

The proposed internship project deals with the compilation and preparation of relevant scientific content for the Association for Preservation Technology International (APTI) Technical Committee on Sustainable Preservation, which is currently developing an innovative “Online Sustainable Conservation Assistance Resource.” Also known as OSCAR, this tool is aimed at becoming an “interactive resource that establishes a clear […]

The aim of project is to establish a secure remote proxy connection between two parties where one party is behind a firewall or say NAT. This strategy is required in Martello’s product, MarWatch where technician is remotely located from client. In case, client faces any trouble, services from technician are invoked making sure they do […]

Understanding river water quality is critical for various purposes such as ensuring drinking water safety, protecting public health and aquatic habitat, monitoring pollution, and disease control. The traditional approach to investigating water quality is by acquiring water samples at fixed-locations, which is time and cost consuming and cannot discover spatial distribution of water quality over […]

Bend gestures on flexible devices allow users to provide subtle and continuous input to a computing device by bending a corner or a side of the device in question. The depth of bend can be used to control, for example, the speed at which the user scrolls through a document. This kind of input could […]

In an era of declining public spending, cities across Canada are in the grips of an affordable housing (and corresponding homelessness) crisis. Last year, in Ottawa, nearly 7,000 people stayed in an emergency shelter and more than 10,000 households were on a waitlist for affordable housing in Ottawa. Through targeted policy research and semi-structured key […]

The Project builds on existing research to advance the design of a novel, cargo carrying UAV for commercial and humanitarian purposes. The project will apply adaptable winglet, fuselage aerodynamics, and aircraft controller research to tailless, flex-wing ultralight aircraft with 2-axis control. Such an aircraft will have many advantages over conventional fixed wing aircraft, including mission […]
