The purpose of this project is to assist a community non-profit organisation to build a comprehensive plan to evaluate its poverty reduction initiatives and activities. The agency partners with other non-profit agencies as well as with government partners, other stakeholders, and persons with lived/living experience. The purpose of the project is also to develop a […]

The goal of the project is to evaluate several clustering algorithms on players’ styles data in the context of Video Lottery Terminals (VLTs). The previous work has shown that by segmenting anonymous player data by sessions, and then clustering the sessions using the simple k-means algorithm, we can get a descriptive statistic on player styles, […]

S0b~ys has made sIgnificant progress in reducing the environmental Impacts of its direct operations thrQugh reductions in GHG emissions and waste productIon. The corporatIon Is now ready to expand Its efforts to the supply chain, where it has determined the vast majority of environmental Impacts origInate. This research project will examine ways that Sobeys can […]

This project is intended to support the deployment of an underwater communication network, that is multi-hop and multi-modal. It relies on the combination of acoustic propagation and magnetic-induction to send the information from a remote instrument through a set of relay nodes and to a destination. To enable end-to-end transmission over a secured link, secured […]

This research project will determine the associated greenhouse gas emissions associated with an environmentally friendly graphene-based coating to see how it compares with other marine coatings currently in industry. The developed methodology can be used in future life cycle assessments, as it will provide an innovative way of modelling graphene-based coating systems. GIT will benefit […]

Internet of things (IoT) includes of multitude of sensors from a wide variety of applications. These sensors produce high volume and high velocity data. Recently there has been much interest in application of such technologies to improve agricultural practices. The sensors that are installed in the field transmit real time data regarding numerous environmental variables […]

Regulatory safety initiatives for Canadian community pharmacies have been rapidly evolving throughout the last decade and now feature requirements for expanding pharmacy offerings, implementing on-line error reporting, assessing quality improvement analytics, and incorporating comprehensive safety enhancement practices. With each province approaching this new regulatory environment differently, large-scale community pharmacy providers must navigate these complex demands, […]

Sport equipment, particularly ice hockey goaltender equipment, development and advancement is due to professional player feedback, advances in material engineering and through following equipment rules and regulations. Often these advances occur at a faster pace than equipment evaluations, which results in a gap in the understanding of the effects that this equipment has on an […]

This research has two main foci: (1) resilience and resilience intervention and (2) workplace dignity. The first main focus of this project is to evaluate Air Institute’s current evidence-informed Pathway to Resilience program, specifically their effectiveness in impacting the key resilience factors targeted in each workshop. This research will also examine data in order to […]

Eden Valley Poultry (EVP) is one of the main suppliers of chicken products in Atlantic Canada with 10.3M broilers and turkeys processed in 2018. Currently, the EVP planner manually manages various factors that contribute to the selection of barns for broiler pick up to be processed every day. This research proposal aims to improve the […]

Networks have grown from small topologies connecting a dozen of devices to large, shared infrastructures supporting primary needs of our society. Today, we count on networked services for trading, commuting, monitoring weather conditions, meeting people. In order to provide reliable services, network operators need to cope with the daunting challenge of ensuring millions of flows […]

Some species of marine invertebrates are rich source of diverse bioactive molecules with variety of therapeutic properties including immunostimulatory, anticancer and antimicrobial. This research aims to develop an integrated process for the sequential extraction and fractionation of pharmaceutically important from a selected marine invertebrates using supercritical carbon dioxide. The newly developed process will be a […]
