The goal of this project is to assess the effectiveness of Concrete Canvas® in mitigating the radioactive radon gas exposure as well as methane infiltration into northern houses due to degrading permafrost. The outcomes of this research can provide northern communities with a relatively low-cost climate adaptation strategy to deal with toxic soil gas exposure […]

Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is a practical solution for reducing the overall green house gas (GHG) emission and environmental footprint of the civilization. The CoFlow simulation software developed by CMG is one of the only tools available for predicting the performance of the CCS applications. Generally, there are technical challenges and prediction deficiencies associated […]

The Ottawa Hospital is implementing a new information technology application system, or Clinical Provider Order Entry (CPOE) system. The students will model and study all aspects of the operational routines that are affected by the technology introduction and investigate how these routines evolve and change through simulation modeling. Examining the process of changing organizational routines […]

Le stagiaire […]

Today, construction activities have resulted in the depletion of vast amounts of non-renewable resources that cause climate change which is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our day. The construction industry is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions globally. Sustainable construction is now mainstream, necessitating the investigation of environmentally friendly construction materials […]

This project aims to design, develop, and deploy a Proof-of-Concept (PoC) Patient Queuing System in the Ambulatory Care Department at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, in Charlottetown, PE. This work will develop and test a prototype which then be used to help further discovery potentially leading to more efficient resource allocation.

Automotive makers are facing increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and shift from the use of more conventional internal combustion engine vehicles to electric vehicles. Along with this shift comes a demand for on-board electronics that can operate at higher power densities, such as the electric motor. A less utilized, yet cheaper and more […]

Public procurement plays a crucial role in enabling governments to achieve their goals. Unsolicited proposals represent a departure from the usual procurement process used by governments, in that they involve a private firm submitting a proposal to develop a project or to deliver goods and services in the absence of a formal or informal request. […]

Release of nutrients from wastewater treatment and local houses into lake St Charles as the main source of drinking water to Quebec City has risen major concerns during the recent decade. As such, it is important to study the governing factors impacting the water quality of this strategic lake. For this purpose, in this project, […]

User interfaces for health care apps can improve the quality of life of patients, and help them to have active lives despite their condition. In this fact, we highlight the importance of creating a well-designed interface for health care apps to support patients monitoring key parameters, recording daily personal facts, and treatmentadherence. In this research […]

La monographie Le droit de l’emploi au Québec, citée à de multiples reprises par les tribunaux de première instance et d’appel, incluant la Cour suprême du Canada, constitue l’un des principaux ouvrages de référence en droit du travail québécois. Or cet ouvrage, publié par la maison d’édition juridique Wilson & Lafleur, n’a pas été mis […]

Non-profit organizations play an increasingly important role in rural regions. Yet, these organizations are chronically lacking in capacity, including being both understaffed and underfinanced, as well as having high turnover rates and loss of institutional memory as a result. This research project aims to explore how non-profit organizations and charities in rural communities deliver their […]
