Cette étude vise entre autres à mieux comprendre la gestion des dimensions temporelles (travail-famille-vie personnelle) qui conduisent à l’intégration et à la rétention des personnes immigrantes au sein des territoires régionaux du Bas-Saint Laurent/Saguenay Lac St Jean/Abitibi Témiscamingue. Elle a également pour but de favoriser des pistes d’actions desserrant le poids du travail pour favoriser […]

The safety of intersections, interchanges, and other traffic facilities is most often assessed by tracking and analyzing police-reported motor vehicle crashes over time. Given the infrequent and random nature of crashes, this process is slow to reveal the need for remediation of either the roadway design or the flow-control strategy. This process is also not […]

The process for responding to tenders is very long, arduous and involves many repetitive tasks. Among these, it is necessary to read the invitation to tender in order to find the different requirements, important dates, legal obligations, constraints of presentation of the response, etc. All of these factors are used for the prequalification of a […]

Chronic low-back pain (CLBP) is a significant health issue in North America. CLBP patients demonstrate structural changes to and reduced function of the multifidus muscle, which is important to low-back health. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a treatment used to improve pain and function in low-back pain patients, but is frequently painful. Our partner has […]

When construction equipment digs, this generates a complex set of physical interactions between the machine and the soil. Being able to accurately simulate such interactions in real-time opens the door to improved operator training and even adaptively-tuned digging operation that optimize the energy-efficiency of construction equipment. With recent advanced in artificial intelligence (AI), this is […]

Mass fever screening, as the most effective way to control the spread of these pandemic diseases, is vital to reduce the impact of COVID-19 to Canada. However, existing methods for mass fever screening is largely inefficient due to limited sensitivity in temperature measurement, which is attributed to easy interference by ambient parameters, low resolution, and […]

This twelve-month project aims to understand and propose a practical solution to prevent transmission of COVID-19 from contact with contaminated surfaces. It addresses a challenge of crucial importance for Canada and for Bioastra Technologies, a Canadian company specialising in smart materials for health, robotics and environmental applications. BioAstra was recently designated as an “essential service” […]

Face aux changements globaux, nos infrastructures naturelles, et donc les services qu’elles produisent, sont fortement menacées et le risque de les voir disparaître est de plus en plus inquiétant Ainsi, afin de maintenir – voire augmenter – les services rendus par nos infrastructures naturelles pour le bénéfices des 83% de canadiens vivant en milieux urbains, […]

L’objectif de cette recherche est d’intégrer un système d’échantillonnage (SE) de l’eau développé par l’INRS à la technologie de drone de DroneXperts. Le stagiaire devra adapter le système de fixation du SE au drone, intégrer son système de contrôle à celui du drone et effectuer les essais en milieu contrôlé et réel. La réalisation de […]

Genacol Canada Corporation Inc. manufactures a collagen hydrolysate (CH) product, sourced from bovine (Genacol® Original Formula), that has shown promising and positive results in three clinical trials for decreasing joint pain, as well as having a positive effect on articular cartilage. Following digestion, and first pass metabolism, CHs release peptides that have been shown to […]

Eli Health is developing a novel biosensing device to monitor sex hormones in saliva and a mobile application that leverages machine learning to interpret them. The mission of the organization is to enable women to take control of their health across their lives. It will first commercialize the device for fertility and contraception applications. In […]

This work is a holistic automatic methodology for cloud resource management system, which is a corner stone to build any cloud system. Cloud players rely on this to reduce management effort and cloud running cost, by enabling dynamic service access to cloud clients with cheapest price for customer, and high revenue for cloud providers. Customer […]
