The research project aims to develop a special computer program so called “interpretable recommender system” to suggest the most efficient AI-Interpretable recommender system for maritime logistics chain to transport goods by ship. The program will use advanced math and machine learning to analyze large amounts of data about different ships and their movements. The goal […]

Public transit offers both a relatively low GHG-to-passenger ratio and affordable options for local travel in comparison to personal vehicle travel, thusly presenting as a key area for making progress toward climate change mitigation and social justice. Working with stakeholders in the Greater Victoria Area, this project will identify, map, and examine three different new […]

Declarative programming techniques have been used to make programming available to common users through introducing query languages such as SQL and spreadsheet programs such as Excel. The proposed industrial partner, LogicBlox, has developed software that enables highly-complex data analysis through the flexible and familiar form of spreadsheet computing. The main goal of this proposal is […]

The goal of this research project is to better understand the dilemma faced by displaced persons needing to prove their identities to aid institutions without the assistance of formal documentation. While there are processes in place for addressing these situations, advances in distributed ledger technologies (DLT) may offer ways to improve efficiency and thereby improve […]

Coatings are widely applied to cutting tools with the benefit of extending tool life, improving cutting efficiency and part quality. Vacuum arc evaporation has been used for the deposition of the coating materials on the cutting tools. This project will investigate the vacuum arc evaporation process in order to improve the coating efficiency and the […]

This project involves the developments of novel mm-Wave power amplification structures to achieve significant improvements in energy efficiency for next-generation wireless networks.

Magnetic drug targeting is a recent drug delivery method where the drug is bound to a carrier, the magnetic nanoparticles. Directed with a magnetic field towards the target tissue, e.g., tumours. the drug is released there to produce a therapeutic effect. In many cases, however, it is additionally necessary that the drug enters the target […]
