Dans une optique de durabilité, les filières animales sont à la recherche d’alternatives pouvant remplacer le maïs et le tourteau de soya très utilisés pour alimenter les animaux et qui entrent en compétition avec l’alimentation de l’homme. Dans ce cadre, les farines animales, riche en protéines, gras, phosphore et calcium, sont déjà utilisées pour substituer […]

type of treatment they will provide to patients. With technological improvements and the availability of a significant volume of data, it is increasingly difficult for care providers to properly evaluate and analyze the options available to them. The current health condition of the patient–reflected in the monitored observations which are recorded in EMR–may depend on […]

The purpose of the research project is to develop options for the reduction of the carbon footprint at Hydro One Networks Inc. (HONI).The research will focus on helping HONI meet a reduction goal of half of current emission levels over the next decade. The company has taken preliminary steps to assess and plan for reduction […]

L’alimentation durable est une composante essentielle de l’économie durable visant à un développement économique apte à répondre aux besoins du présent sans compromettre la capacité des générations futures à répondre aux leurs. Pour ce faire, l’alimentation durable préconise la consommation de produits locaux et, en ce qui concerne les produits maraîchers, cultivés dans le respect […]

The point-of-care i-STAT and VETSCAN units are easily portable blood-based assessment tools that can produce relevant blood parameters within minutes with only 2-3 drops of blood. The objective of this study is to examine both natural and investigator-applied stress gradients in fishes and compare blood chemistry of fishes from a range of environments (e.g., low […]

La production d’électricité à faible empreinte carbone est un levier majeur dans la lutte contre les changements climatiques. L’hydroélectricité, qui représente 99% de l’électricité produite au Québec, possède une faible empreinte carbone comparativement à l’électricité provenant de ressources fossiles, soit un avantage majeur pour la province. Les émissions de CO2 et de CH4 provenant de […]

Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are usually employed to quickly render images on everyday computer screens, and do so quickly and efficiently for relatively little cost compared to the use of Central Processing Units (CPUs) that make up the “brain” of the computer. Modern GPUs are able to do hundreds or thousands of simultaneous calculations; rewriting […]

The result of this project can be used by engineers to design a multivariable control system that will optimize the dosing of chemicals in seawater pretreatment. Besides, the plant operators and technicians will be able to perform ‘what if’ scenarios based on computer modeling results to ensure that the outlet water quality is not decreased. […]

Game-based learning tools often make use of questions to measure and encourage learning, but generating questions can be challenging, especially at the scale that companies like Axonify are required to do. In this project, the intern will design, implement, and evaluate a system that can apply machine-learning on a corpus of text (e.g., a textbook) […]

S0b~ys has made sIgnificant progress in reducing the environmental Impacts of its direct operations thrQugh reductions in GHG emissions and waste productIon. The corporatIon Is now ready to expand Its efforts to the supply chain, where it has determined the vast majority of environmental Impacts origInate. This research project will examine ways that Sobeys can […]

En cette ère du numérique et de l’intelligence, une nouvelle vision de l’éducation – Éducation 4.0 – vise à développer une approche pédagogique novatrice et centrée sur le développement des compétences du 21e siècles telles la pensée complexe, la résolution de problèmes de façon créative et la capacité d’adaptation. Ces compétences – non-techniques, transversales et […]

The electric power industry is undergoing considerable changes with respect to structure, operation, regulation and modernization. One of the significant changes is the increased utilization of distribured energy sources (DES) such as wind and solar and other immerging technologies particularly in electric distribution systems. It is envisioned that DES will bcome the main source of […]
