IDENTOS and the University of Ottawa will collaborate in the research and development of cryptographic techniques for secure and privacy-respecting blockchain transactions. This project has research, design and implementation aspects. The project builds on the strengths of IDENTOS and The University of Ottawa in the areas of Mobile Security Privacy and Blockchain. The students will […]

The early years are optimal for investing in the future of our society, as early experiences are critical for brain development, lifelong learning, and wellbeing. BC data show that 1-in-3 children are vulnerable at school entry. To change this, we need to enhance capacities to locally identify families’ and children’s needs and provide supports to […]

Ce projet vise à optimiser la rapidité de prise de décision dans les entreprises suite à un meilleur système de collecte et traitement de l’information lors de l’acquisition de données stratégiques via différentes veilles économiques (système de recherche d’informations stratégiques pour les décisions de l’entreprise). Par la suite cela permettra d’adapter plus rapidement la conception […]

Le Canada est un leader international en trampoline depuis plusieurs olympiades. Afin de maintenir ces performances, il convient d’innover dans les techniques des saltos vrillés. En collaboration avec l’INS Québec, nous allons créer, pour des trampolinistes, une variété de techniques optimales de vrilles aériennes au moyen de simulation informatique. Le défi est de développer 1) […]

Sea cucumbers are found in both benthic areas and deep seas and have been used as a source of food and drug for decades. During the past decade, several scientific research initiatives explored various species of sea cucumber. However, not much research has been done on Atlantic species. As an emerging fishery in Atlantic Canada, […]

A crosslink is a chemical bond that links one polymer chain to another. Adding crosslinks can enhance the strength of polymers, and can improve performance at high temperatures. In this collaboration between Epic Ventures Inc and the Wulff Research Group at the University of Victoria, we are inventing a new family of chemical crosslinkers that […]

The remote First Nations communities of Canada suffer from a dire lack of access to emergency response systems and services during times of crises. They lack access to life-saving services such as paramedics, 911 services, and search and rescue services due to their geographic isolation. This often puts them in grave danger and results in […]

Tracking the component configuration and modifications to aircraft within the commercial airline business presents a challenge for manufacturers such as Bombardier with currently available methods. This research problem is significant to the aerospace industry to construct efficient maintenance schedules for different aircraft and to properly evaluate system reliability for safety purposes. The objective of this […]

In Canada, the need to address housing demand along the growing urbanization with consideration of environmental impact, motivated timber-based construction. Timber structures are known for their aesthetic, flexibility in achieving the innovative architectural designs, fast means of construction and environmental friendliness. In the past decade, significant research have been undertaken to use timber for mid- […]

The ability for an autonomous robot to create its own map based on onboard sensors and simultaneously, localize itself within this map is know as Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). Although the theory behind SLAM has been well developed much work still needs to be done in realizing SLAM solutions that meet situation-specific real-world requirements. […]

The goal is to develop a new in-video e-commerce service that enables users to purchase apparels directly from streaming videos, such as TV shows and Music videos. To do this, we have to find apparels from an inventory list that are similar to apparel or style appearing in the video. Currently, this can be done […]
