Optical beamforming solutions for 6G

The project will develop a 6G silicon-based beamforming network incorporating optical technologies. Such a technology may increase the performance of the 6G wireless systems and to reduce the power consumption. The use of photonics to perform beamforming has a key advantage of wide instantaneous bandwidth with no beam squint problem. Since the signals are already […]

Stronger Together: Making Ottawa and Renfrew County Dementia Inclusive

As the population of older Canadians increases, so too does the number of persons living with dementia. Our research project aims to improve the health and wellbeing of Canadians by focusing on improving the dementia friendliness/inclusivity of our cities (where many older persons choose to live). Ten (10) persons living with dementia and their care […]

Reducing frailty with a 12-week multi-component intervention for older adults living in long-term care setting

Older adults living with frailty recover less quickly following minor illnesses and are more likely to be hospitalized or die. Therefore, it is of importance to identify strategies to prevent or treat frailty. In Canada, there is currently no available multi-component interventions addressing frailty in long-term care settings. This project will evaluate the effectiveness of […]

Informing Researcher and Clinician Decisions to Interact with a Scholarly Publication: Identifying Preferences for a Journal Transparency Tool

Advances in healthcare and research are published in peer-reviewed biomedical journals all over the world. Our previous research shows that predatory journals, or fake academic journals, pose a threat to this. Predatory journals claim to publish high-quality research, but they do not follow accepted scientific publishing practices (e.g., peer review, indexing). If health decisions are […]

Intelligent Strategies for Optimal Virtual Network Function Placement in 5G Core

The proposed project aims at developing novel algorithms for the 5G Core Network Placement to meet Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The ultimate goal is to minimize the number of virtual network functions in 5G packet core while meeting the latency requirements. Thus, this project aims to address the trade-off between latency and operational costs in […]
