This goal of the project is compare tools that can be used to evaluate the job performance of paramedics in a fair, equitable and consistent way whether they live in Saskatchewan or somewhere else in the world. Individuals who have completed their paramedic training will be evaluated using a common real life situation that they […]

This project proposes an integration of explainable AI with NFT/Blockchain primarily for event organizers and ticketing systems. The purpose of this integration is to overcome the drawbacks of individual technologies and work in coherence for mutual benefits. The XAI based decision making supported by predictive maintenance and automation of event critical processes will enable event […]

With the announcement by the Government of Canada of increasing measures to reduce CO2 and other GHG emissions to Net-zero, the PTRC has begun to reposition itself as a world-leader in CCUS to help the country, and international partners, reach aggressive targets by 2030 and 2050 respectively. With the new realities of carbon pricing, taxes […]

The adoption of innovative technologies is crucial in today’s business environment – driven by the ongoing pressure to acquire more customers by launching new services in a faster and more convenient way. But adopting new technologies always brings with it a slew of security challenges, making it harder to maintain a secure working environment that […]

At the International CCS Knowledge Centre (Knowledge Centre), we take climate action seriously. We are dedicated to advancing the understanding and use of large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) to manage greenhouse gas emissions globally. We know that the world can’t get to net-zero starting from ground zero – so we provide the know-how to […]

Current challenges, like climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic, have brought new awareness to how we consume, produce, and distribute food. In Saskatchewan, climate change is already impacting the quality and quantity of southern water supplies and strategies used for hunting, gathering, and fishing in northern areas. Amidst these challenges, this project examines whether local […]

The project focuses on conducting macro research on the Agtech, Clean-Tech and North American Venture Capital landscape with the goal of providing private capital to fund Canadian Agtech and agribusiness innovation. We believe some of the futures best agricultural and agribusiness companies are being built right here in Canada and Saskatchewan! Emmertech was built by […]

A multi-party live video communication, such as live tutorials and fitness classes, are an emerging application which involves a large number of users from different places with heterogeneous network conditions like 3G/4G/5G or Wi-Fi networks. Video Content/Service providers usually deploy their Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) over the public Internet to avoid expenses of dedicated connectivity. […]

Scrawlr is a platform for unconstrained, global interaction with all internet content and users. Scrawlr allows for user evaluation and unconstrained classification of any Scrawlr-hosted or non-Scrawlr content. For non-Scrawlr content, this evaluation and classification allowance will be first at the URL level but will subsequently be provided at the individual content component level. The […]

The proposed research will develop a reliable analytical method for the quantitative analysis of grain grading factors for Canadian Western Red Spring wheat using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Most commercially available near infrared spectrometers used in agricultural applications require significant expertise, a large footprint, a controlled environment, and are prohibitively expensive. The NIRS technology is […]

This research project will develop new methods for detecting space debris, communication signals, and moon dust equipped on spacecraft and satellites to be launched in the future. One of the major concerns with equipment orbiting Earth is the possible collision with space debris. Also, a lunar outpost equipped with the Canadarm3 is planned for completion […]

Boundary Reservoir near Estevan, SK has warm water from a coal plant released into it and this warm water created suitable conditions for the reservoir to support the only largemouth bass fishery in the province. In the coming years, the power plant is significantly reducing its operations and it is unknown what will happen to […]
