Aging In Place Medical Device Certification 1 of 2

Home Health Systems has built a sensor and software for Aging In Place monitoring for senior citizens. It supports outpatient care where costs are reduced by 10X and patients get treated at home where they prefer to be. This project will complete the next steps required for Health Canada certification as a class 3 medical […]

GRID (Geo-Registry Integrated Datachain)

The objectives for the project are to formalize the value proposition and business case for a blockchain enabled platform for real-estate information and transactions called GRID (Geo-Registry Integrated Data chain) (a patent-pending technology platform which was developed by Arrowhead Development Company Ltd.). This research aims to: i) investigate aspects related to GRID’s potential financial model […]

Closed loop, vapor-phase processing of nickel for porous materials for EV batteries

The proposed research project aims at technology for environmentally benign recycling of nickel. The process entails conversion of nickel found in the “black mass” from recycled Ni-based batteries into nickel carbonyl, Ni(CO)4, by reaction with CO at modest temperatures around 50-120°C (pressuredependent). Only nickel carbonyl is volatile under these conditions and is easily separated from […]

Predicting Equipment Failure in Canadian Mines

In order to reach the production targets, mining operations typically need to operate without a stop. Equipment maintenance planning plays an important role in ensuring the required number of mining haul trucks are available at any given time. If not planned correctly, corrective maintenance would be required, which could slow down or halt the production […]

Efficient, Edge-based Video Streaming for Video Action Recognition

Streaming video applications in the home (video doorbells, security cameras, babycams, robot vacuums etc.) have started to become commonplace. Automatically detecting events of interest in such video streams can help to reduce manual effort from users in sifting through false alarms, enhance user safety, comfort and satisfaction, as well as enable new applications in areas […]

Optimized operational strategy planning model for Smart Net Zero Community

Due to some complex technical problems, both power plant’s generators and local grid transmission lines do not have the potential to generate and transmit enough electricity to cover and meet all load demand during peak hours. Based on this technical difficulty, there is no solution for customers to use costly energy during peak hours and […]

Modeling Application Performance under Multi-Instance (Multi-Stream) Execution Scenarios

Multi-stream execution is a technique in GPUs that allows multiple operations/kernels from the same program to effectively use GPUs without explicitly stating the affinity of threads to the cores. Several recent optimizations in Machine Learning (ML) algorithms leverage multi-stream execution. While performance modeling of ML applications is well studied under single-stream execution, performance models of […]

Fabrication of Deformable Micro Mirrors

Histology studies the microscopic anatomy of biological tissues, which is critical to clinical disease management and fundamental to biological understanding. However, current approaches that rely on bright-field microscopy require extensive issue preparation prior to imaging and may thus take days. Photoacoustic remote sensing, or PARS, can dramatically reduce the histology bio-imaging time from days to […]
