The intern would undertake research and implementation activities for Hawkins and Co. Accounting, a local accounting firm based in Windsor, ON. The organization has been operating successfully for the last seven years until COVID hit, and the economy started slowing down. With this new external factor impacting their business, Hawkins realized that online presence has […]

Deep learning (DL) algorithms have achieved phenomenal success in different AI applications in recent times. Training DL algorithms require huge computational resources. Therefore, cloud or high-performance computing at the edge are obvious choices for this task. However, during inference cloud computing is not a suitable choice because of latency issues. There are billions of devices […]

One of the main issues for automakers in today’s green economy is ensuring their vehicles have the highest fuel economy possible in order to deal with constantly increasing fuel costs. The improved fuel efficiency of vehicles provides money savings for customers, reduced carbon dioxide emissions, less dependency on oil, and lastly increased energy sustainability. The […]

The proposed research project will develop quantitative gas migration testing techniques and regulatory thresholds that address the complex nature of the multiple interacting variables that can confuse gas migration investigations. The study will focus on the development of in-situ field measurement technologies and instrumentation to characterize the variables that impact soil gas and isotope signatures […]

Fisheries are a fundamental contributor to socio-economic growth in northern Canadian communities and are a management priority considering limited alternative economic opportunities available in the region. The proposed research aligns with core research needs of industry/resource managers to meet three objectives: 1. examine movement dynamics, habitat-use, and bycatch hotspots to aid development of community-based Greenland […]

Acrolab is in need of research and strategic business planning support to enable their operations to proceed successfully with expanding their product offerings within the aerospace sector. The objective scope of this project is to prepare research to support Acrolab’s business operations as it prepares to launch a new product within the aerospace industry. Within […]

The objective of this research is to reduce the loss phosphate (P) used as fertilizer into waterways. Accumulation of phosphate in rivers and lakes leads to premature lake aging and high P-content allows growth and proliferation of algae, which degrade quality of drinking water, aquatic habitat, and recreational utilization of waterways. The environmentally friendly compound […]

Automotive Open System Architecture (AUTOSAR) is a system-level standard used worldwide by automotive companies and suppliers to develop standardized software development frameworks for automobiles. The RTE software of AUTOSAR should be configured to develop an Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The manual and semiautomatic code creation phases of the software development process for the RTE is […]

The infrastructure industry needs a way to non-destructively assess plastic pipe joints. We aim to research, design, and develop methodologies and a prototype device that allow automated inspection of these joints (made with the two most common joining methods) using ultrasound and artificial intelligence (AI). We propose a novel method that uses a two-element ultrasonic […]

A solar wireless charger makes use of the power of the sun to charge your mobile phone. The benefit of this portable device is that it makes it possible to charge your phone outdoor or when someone does not have access to electricity right away. It also helps people in undeveloped countries where access to […]

Due to the potential for significant cost-savings, many companies are turning their attention to digital simulations which produce an enormous amount of data. For companies to realize the benefits of having access to this data they need tools that allow efficient and accurate extraction of information from the data set. The goal of this project […]
