Communities across Canada are planning for significant population and job growth. They do this through Official Community Plans and Zoning Bylaws that regulate how land can be used, whether it’s for homes, jobs, shopping, parks, schools, and more. Many of these communities were once established either as trading posts near a wealth of natural resources […]

With recent advances in microscopy techniques for calcium imaging, scientists are now able to monitor the neurons in large brain areas of living animals. However, this also creates significant challenges for scientists who must make sense of the large and complex datasets generated. As a result, there is a need for new componential methods and […]

The vehicle routing problem and its extensions have been successful in optimizing a measure such as time or cost, but only when these measures can be accurately estimated or approximated. However, this is not the case in complex environments. Particularly in urban routing, it is generally complicated, and efficient routing requires tacit knowledge of the […]

In applications arising in project management, warehouse stock management and project deliveries, several activities that use a common resource need to be executed in a sequential manner in order to keep nonnegative resource levels. As an example, consider newly produced items entering a warehouse, and the items that are demanded by the customers leaving the […]

The motivation for our project is to address the growing concern about construction waste and its environmental impact. By finding efficient and environmentally friendly recycling methods for composite construction, we can reduce waste generation, conserve resources, and minimize the construction industry’s carbon footprint. Our approach involves conducting technical, environmental, and economic assessments to identify the […]

Le travail de recherche consistera à répertorier un nombre maximum d’outils d’analyse dans le domaine du marketing et de la stratégie numérique, d’analyser ces outils afin d’en extraire une série d’attributs puis de bâtir un « méta-outil ». Le résultat final prendra la forme d’une méthodologie de service-conseil qui permettra d’élaborer des stratégies numériques permettant […]

This research project aims to develop AI based models for predicting visual saliency in gaming videos. Visual saliency refers to identifying the most relevant and important areas in an image or video. This technology has numerous applications, including improving video compression and optimizing the backlight dimming of displays, leading to better user experience and power […]

The goal of the proposed research project is to assist the Association of Early Childhood Educators of Alberta (AECA) in building their understanding of the needs of early childhood educators so they can advocate for evidence-informed outcomes as decisions are being made on their behalf on how the bilateral funding is to be spent to […]

With the Hardy Boys’ 100th anniversary coming up in 2027, there is no better time than the present to explore their history and for Simon & Schuster Canada, the copyright owners, to consider how the well-loved characters can be ushered into the modern day. In celebration of the centennial anniversary of the beloved detective duo […]

In artistic swimming, athletes must perform complex movement routines in the water, while holding their breath for up to 60% of the time, which greatly accelerates the development of hypoxia-induced fatigue. Research shows that hypoventilation training at low lung volumes improves energy metabolism, thereby reducing muscle fatigue and improving physical performance. Furthermore, inspiratory muscle training […]

Les sciences de la Terre comprennent principalement trois disciplines, dont la géologie, la géochimie et la géophysique. La plupart des informations géologiques ont une nature descriptive issues directement de l’observation. Les analyses géochimiques déterminent précisément la composition des substances terrestres solides et liquides et sont quantitatives à l’échelle microscopique. L’interprétation des relevés géophysiques détermine la […]

The overarching goal of the project is to seek insights into how teachers use assessment to gather information about student learning and to inform their instruction, and the challenges that teachers face in consistently implementing these assessments in their classrooms. It aims to explore how technologies can be leveraged to address the challenges and obstacles […]
