Supporting Review of Topic-Based Code Changes

La revue de code est essentielle pour assurer la qualité logicielle, et une revue efficace nécessite de comprendre à la fois la modification individuelle et le contexte plus large dans lequel elle s’inscrit. Dans de nombreux projets, y compris ceux utilisant Gerrit, les développeurs regroupent les modifications liées en un « topic » qui représente […]

Application of Advanced Oxidation Processes for Removing Emerging Contaminants, with a Focus on Anticancer Pharmaceuticals and PFAS from Water

This project focuses on the removal of emerging contaminants (ECs), including anticancer pharmaceuticals and PFAS, from water using advanced oxidation processes such as photocatalysis and UV-based treatments.It will explore how the molecular structures of these persistent pollutants influence their degradation pathways and the formation of transformation by-products. The internship integrates Concordia University’s environmental engineering expertise […]

Development of Low-Loss, High-Finesse Nanofiber Optical Resonators for Distributed Quantum Computing

There is a significant global effort to develop fault-tolerant quantum computers, with a leading strategy being the creation of modular, distributed quantum networks. This approach requires high-fidelity “quantum interconnects” to link individual quantum processors. This project proposes to fabricate and optimize the fundamental component for these interconnects: ultra-low-loss, high-finesse nanofiber optical resonators. This will be […]

Predictive Processing of Disfluent Speech in Bilinguals

Language is one of the most fundamental cognitive processes, yet we know relatively little about how bilinguals learn, understand, and use language. This is a critical knowledge gap, as around 20% of Canadians grow up in bilingual homes. Furthermore, what we do know about bilingual language acquisition has focused on fluent language. Speech disfluencies (e.g., […]

Mining and Modeling Review-Priority Labels in Gerrit for Predictive Review Analytics

Code review is a critical step in modern software development, ensuring quality, preventing defects, and coordinating collaborative work. Large ecosystems such as OpenStack, which is hosted on Gerrit, receive a high volume of code changes every day, making it challenging for reviewers to decide which contributions should be handled first. In response to this, OpenStack […]

Adaptive Digital Twin for Optimizing Repositioning, Routing, and Matching in Private Floating Fleets

Private charter fleets are valuable mobile assets that, when efficiently managed, can generate substantial revenue for operators and owners. A key factor in maximizing profitability is achieving a high asset utilization rate. We propose the development of a large-scale adaptive digital twin for supporting private floating fleet repositioning, routing and matching decisions. The digital twin […]

Smart Aircraft Wings Constructed via Reconfigurable Metamaterials

Traditional airplane wings operate via an intricate system, including rigid control surfaces, motors, cables, and hydraulics. Wings can deform, e.g., slide and tilt rigid control surfaces, to control airflow passing over them. Though with high reliability, traditional wings are heavy. A lighter alternative is smart wings constructed via morphable materials, such as shape memory alloys/polymers […]

Development of an integrated CO2 capture and conversion system for methanol, DME and ethanol production

The main objective of this project is to design an effective CO2 capture and conversion technology for alcohols and DME production. The process is based on microwave-assisted CO2 adsoprtion process integrated with hydrogen and syngas. The modelling of the novel microwave adsorption system will be performed. The process simulation tool will be provided to determine […]

Participatory Mapping for Assessing Social Cumulative Effects of Extractive Industries in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

This project will explore how extractive industries, such as offshore oil and gas, have affected the Maria Joaquina Quilombola community in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Using participatory methods, such as community workshops and mapping, the study will document how the community has experienced social cumulative effects. The project seeks to enhance understanding and evaluation of […]
