The ACPS will offer high-reliability and real-time monitoring of the smart-grid infrastructure and the secure CPS will provide secure communication and authentication of the smart-grid devices and components. This results in secure and improved power transmission that can reduce infrastructure maintenance cost for the utility companies and also reduced power-theft attacks from malicious sources. Successful […]

This multidisciplinary project will investigate the social, data, and technical issues surrounding design and implementation of a blockchain-based solution for the management of consent for the use of individuals’ “omics” data in medical research. Blockchains are distributed ledgers in which confirmed and validated blocks are organized in an append-only chain using cryptographic links. This project […]

My main field of interest is environmental behavior, which deals with interrelations between physical environments and human behaviors regarding urban- and architectural safety planning. I am currently planning to conduct an experimental research on public safety issues (fire/escape, terror/crimes) in urban- and architectural environments utilizing Virtual Reality technologies, and although I have recently acquired fundamental […]

The main goal of this research project is to identify key genes which act as transcription factors (TFs) in downstream of R gene. Since the pathway after the interaction of R gene and its effector is almost unknown, after locating the candidate gene by using the protein-protein interaction, the final step is figuring out the […]

The project aims at accomplishing the real-time delineation of both Seismocardiogram and Gyrocardiogram signals (which are associated with different stages of the cardiovascular cycle) and effectively extracting cardiac performance metrics (fiducial points) for use in a non-invasive portable diagnostic tool as the deviations of the either timing or amplitude can be indicative of abnormality in […]

I am working on graph Recolouring in reflexive digraphs and the host supervisor is working on Locally Injective Homomorphisms and k-Frugal Coloring. I and the host supervisor will work on graph graph Recolouring in Locally Injective Homomorphisms and k-Frugal colourings so our objectives is calculating complexity of graph recolouring in Locally Injective Homomorphisms and k-Frugal […]

My MASc thesis involves the assessment of water management options proposed for two mine projects in Peru, with the overarching objective of identifying whether water and energy impacts are being considered and accounted for in a coupled manner during the selection of the mine’s water management strategy. In addition, an early attempt to benchmark the […]

We now live in a world where people can communicate, in real-time, both directly and remotely (e.g., Skype); and where new technologies (e.g., virtual reality, robots, driverless cars) are blurring the traditional lines of human-human and human-computer interactions. The digital world of industry is experiencing a revolution. Products that have traditionally been displayed on computer […]

Pressure ulcers (PUs) are a major health problem in people with spinal cord injuries (SCIs). PUs increase hospital admissions, with 25% of SCI treatment cost linked to PU management. Currently, treatment is limited and new therapeutic options are required. Wound fluid from PUs is invaluable for researchers as it allows a detailed study of the […]

The Eastern Highlands Shear Zone (EHSZ) is a zone of highly strained rocks located in the Cape Breton Island portion (Nova Scotia, Canada) of the Appalachian mountain belt. It is interpreted to separate rock packages of different ages and affinities. Recent field mapping of the EHSZ (this study) has identified deformation fabrics that are diagnostic […]

This project will develop provisional guidelines for publishing texts for and by Indigenous people. Each story, each storyteller, and each nation presents a different case, and there can be no set of rules. The objective is to outline a provisional, adaptable set of principles, questions, and considerations to guide the process of selecting, editing, publishing, […]

The current QR codes are all similar and there is no distinction between them. QR Artist is an application that creates artistic QR automatically and attracts more engagement by introducing art to the QR code design.
