Today, there is an abundance of social media and user engagement platforms. However, they are disorganized and unverified which creates unreliable engagement data. To explore new methods of creating an engagement platform, Veras Technologies Inc. will work with intern Md Hasan Tareque to research and develop a verified and secure engagement platform that leverages blockchain […]

Today, there is an abundance of stakeholder engagement and data visualization platforms. However, they are overwhelming to use, and the data is not easy to interpret. To explore how new methods of visual design and data visualization, Veras Technologies Inc. will work with intern Divine Okonkwo to research, design, and test a comprehensive design language, […]

As the underlying networks transition into 5G and 6G infrastructure, the optimal task performance across different WIoT devices with different energy consumption and computing power require coordination at both the software and hardware levels to maximize accessibility and minimize latency to support emerging applications. The proposed research will explore the various parameter space to determine […]

Membranes are becoming the dominant technology in treating drinking water and wastewater. Membranes can be made in various geometries, but hollow fibers are the preferred form factor; they can be packed more efficiently, reducing the plant size and they are often easier to clean than alternative geometries. Nevertheless, during use, membranes will become fouled, which […]

Les coupes partielles sont parmi les solutions envisageables pour assurer la pérennité des ressources forestières. Cependant, exception faite de la masse volumique et de quelques caractéristiques macroscopiques, les connaissances essentielles sur les effets réels des coupes partielles sur la productivité forestière, la qualité du bois et sa valeur marchande sont manquantes. Le recours aux essais […]

The path to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 in Atlantic Canada is both time- and resource-constrained. Energy system models can be used in this context to compare climate change mitigation options and to strategically plan for meeting climate change goals through cost-effective and timely means. Motivated by these circumstances, Net Zero Atlantic is building an […]

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a scalable platform that integrates devices over the internet and runs different services such as energy and facility management easier than SCADA and similar industrial control systems (ICS). These platforms shall be designed securely and manage devices in a safe environment. However, existing IIoT platforms are not secure by […]

Notre projet de recherche consiste à développer des bétons d’isolations à partir des fibres de jute recyclées. Il faut savoir que les fibres utilisées sont issues du recyclage des poches de jute. Après leurs utilisations, les poches de jute sont jetées dans la nature et considérées comme déchets. Ainsi, les poches de jute sont récupérées, […]

The general goal of this project is to improve the downstream tasks by learning better representations of the data, especially multimodal data pairs, like image/text pairs or user/item interaction pairs. The user/item interaction data plays an important role in e-commerce, and analyzing these data can help improve the banking system, e.g., recommendation, risk control, and […]

Tidal marshes are productive and economically important, providing valuable ecosystem services including disturbance regulation, waste treatment, and the ability to sequester carbon. Sturgeon Bank is a large tidal ecosystem that had a total tidal marsh area of 543 ha at its greatest extent this century. At least 160 ha of tidal marsh at Sturgeon Bank […]

Restoring degraded land for food production is a major global challenge. The turbulent waves of extreme weather experienced across western North America over the past year continue to shake agricultural producers – farmers must contend with both extreme rainfall and drought while still maintaining financially and ecologically viable systems. This research project will determine the […]

This research investigates means for achieving net zero energy dwellings and neighborhoods through maximizing solar potential of dwelling units, isolated and in assemblages. This study will help the community planner to design an efficient layout to achieve maximum solar fraction. Optimum combine building loads in community will lead to a more energy efficient mechanical and […]
