Dans les sites de récolte de tourbe, un réseau de canaux de drainage est souvent nécessaire afin de permettre aux équipements d’accéder au site et d’assécher la tourbe à récolter. Des bassins de sédimentation sont fréquemment installés à la sortie de ces réseaux de drainage pour empêcher la tourbe et les minéraux en suspension d’atteindre […]

Ce projet de recherche consiste en une évaluation d’impact d’un nouvel outil de financement du secteur privé mis en place au Panama par Développement International Desjardins (DID) et financé par le fonds d’investissement Gestion FONIDI Inc., le Centre Financier aux Entreprises (CFE). L’objectif de ce dernier est d’octroyer des prêts de taille moyenne aux entreprises […]

CENGN (http://www.cengn.ca/ ), the Center of Excellence in Next Generation Networking, is a newly formed tri-council funded center of excellence for commercialization and research (CECR) that will bridge the gap between research and commercialization, which is critical to building successful startup companies. CENGN is a consortium of industry, academic and research leaders who are putting […]

Vaccine industry is evolving towards more efficient manufacturing systems. Adenovirus vectored vaccines are among new promising approaches for more efficient vaccines design and production. Recombinant Ad (rAd) can be used as gene deliver vector carrying different antigens for delivery into Ag-presenting cells (APC) eliciting a targeted immune response. Alternatively, antigens can be exposed on the […]

Domestication of cats is thought to date to the Neolithic and to have been driven by the need to control rodents that destroyed stored food. In developed countries, modern pest control methods have rendered the traditional role of cats largely redundant and the hunting tendency of cats is now viewed in a more negative light […]

Le but de ce projet de recherche est d’améliorer les rendements de production des écloseries de homard américain en introduisant un nouveau régime alimentaire. Cette alimentation est basée sur le régime alimentaire des larves en milieu naturel : le zooplancton. En effet, les copépodes représentent une source de nourriture plus riche en éléments essentiels que […]

The overall research project undertaken by the University of Calgary graduate students will examine the effects of exercise on young adults 18-35 years of age with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Areas of investigation include cerebral blood flow changes, as well as sleep behavioral improvements. By doing research such as this, we will justify the use […]

Existing techniques rely on conventional techniques, which are insufficient and do not ensure increased and optimal utilization of freely available PV energy. We propose predictive energy management and preventive maintenance through monitoring system for PV systems, taking futuristic PV potential and weather forecasts into account in association with the operational parameters of the PV system. […]

As future IoT infrastructure generates massive data in excess of exabytes, a unified architecture to handle Big Data is highly essential. Development of unified Big Data processing architecture for IoT infrastructure will provide a scalable and standard solution that addresses the problem of continuous increase in the volume of Big Data. Cloud networks provide necessary […]

This project will review water source alternatives for the Husky Lloydminster Upgrader Complex. These alternatives will be evaluating in terms of their relative economic, technical, social and environmental risks. The framework developed will provide a basis for conducting similar water risk assessments for other operations. The interns will research alternatives, risks, and develop the assessment […]

La caisse Desjardins a subi une mutation profonde sous la pression d’un environnement ayant de valeurs différentes de celles du paradigme coopératif. Elle doit travailler à rendre visible la distinction coopérative qui la différentie du monde bancaire. Elle veut renouveler le sens de la coopération auprès de ses gestionnaires et de ses employés. Pour ce […]

One of the goals of modern bioanalytical chemistry is the simultaneous (multiplexed) detection of multiple biomarkers in individual cells. Biomarkers are defined as characteristic proteins, genes, or small molecules that can be measured and evaluated as indicators of normal biological or pathological state of a cell. Mass cytometry is a recently developed technique developed by […]
