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 […]

Laying hens need a reliable source of protein and energy for egg production and maintenance that does not induce fatty liver disease (FLD). As egg production moves in the direction of group housing scenarios, more management techniques, including nutritional management, that reduce losses due to feather pecking and cannibalism will also be required. Hemp has […]

The interns in this project will use their skills in researching parts and products that can be used to achieve the subprojects that we set out to create on the micro-mobility car. In some areas the students may use the machine shop and equipment found in the engineering building on York University campus to create […]

This project proposes multi-criteria decision-making and mathematical programming (optimization) techniques to design an integrated decision-making tool to assist organizations in managing this complex process and achieving more efficiency. For the first problem, allocating project managers, we develop a multi-criteria decision-making method that will offer the possibility to optimize the usage of PMs’ time considering the […]

Tourism growth has led to unsustainable and careless practices. An emergent response disrupting such carelessness is regenerative tourism. Regenerative tourism is a transformational approach exploring ways to co-create benefits with local communities and their ecosystems while providing authentic experiences for visitors. While interest in regenerative tourism is growing there are limited studies exploring the benefits […]

Videns Analytics aide leurs partenaires à exploiter efficacement leurs données par le développement d’outils informatiques. Ils aident essentiellement leurs partenaires dans la transformation numérique. Grâce à l’expertise de Videns Analytics, les avancées technologiques peuvent être transférées durablement vers des partenaires québécois. Aujourd’hui, la plupart des entreprises, notamment au Québec, utilisent des outils simplistes (p. ex. […]

Current challenges, like climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic, have brought new awareness to how we consume, produce, and distribute food. In Saskatchewan, climate change is already impacting the quality and quantity of southern water supplies and strategies used for hunting, gathering, and fishing in northern areas. Amidst these challenges, this project examines whether local […]
