Cloud hosting environments include large scale distributed storage systems. With the advent of Big Data, especially newer biomedical and biometrics data, collected from wearable monitoring devices, there is a high need for Cloud-based solutions for large scale storage and high bandwidth on-the-fly data analysis for such data. A key problem for IT companies that collect […]

Les hôpitaux et autres établissements de la santé font faces à des problèmes de planification et d’ordonnancement du personnel. Les travaux recensés mettent davantage l’emphase sur la confection des horaires de travail des infirmières et auxiliaires que sur la création d’horaires des médecins. Plusieurs outils issus du domaine industriel ont été utilisés et adaptés au […]

There are many difficult problems in diverse areas such as bioinformatics, transportation or finance, which are very hard to solve on a classical computer. A new type of computer was conceived, called a quantum computer, which operates on the laws of quantum physics, as opposed to the laws of classical mechanics. Such a quantum computer […]

New emerging Virtual Reality (VR) technologies and mobile devices are changing the way that we are interacting with computing technology. The partner organization has a multimedia product that is used to train technicians to perform various maintenance tasks or introduce them to the interconnected components of a machine. The goal of this project is to […]

L’interférométrie radar est une technique innovante et opérationnelle pour l’extraction des données topographiques (InSAR) et la surveillance des mouvements du sol (DInSAR) à partir des images radar. Cette technique utilise l’information sur le déphasage des signaux radar provenant du même objet au sol observé selon des positions différentes du SAR (InSAR) ou de la même […]

Le projet vise à développer et concevoir un prototype de solution géomatique mobile de terrain venant appuyer les archéologues dans le cadre de sorties de terrain d’inventaire et de prospection. L’objectif est de pouvoir répondre, avec la solution proposée, aux différents besoins qui sont exprimés tant par la communauté scientifique que professionnelle, ainsi qu’aux exigences […]

In this project, the intern will develop an integrated patients and care givers scheduling system for the allocation of health care resources in community health care. This system provides patients with an online preference collecting interface for them to express their preferences on time, location, and care givers when estimating their service costs and booking […]

This project aims at developing control strategies under the paradigm of Demand Response (DR) in the context of the Smart Grid in order to improve energy efficiency and to reduce operational cost in commercial buildings and communities. The emphasis is put on consumer side energy management strategies that able to balance energy demand and supply […]

The idea of using light for transferring data has been developed rapidly since 1960s. Today, using light for short-distance communication, as an alternative for copper wires, is rapidly growing mostly because of its broadband communication characteristics. Optical communication systems consist of both electronic and photonic components. Designing such systems will benefit from an Integrated Development […]

Le projet de recherche qui sera entrepris consiste principalement à mettre sur pied une méthode qui permettra au Mouvement Desjardins de prioriser la résolution des problèmes de qualité de certaines données de risque. En effet, une donnée est jugée de mauvaise qualité si, par exemple, elle n’est pas disponible dans un délai prédéterminé. Étant donné […]

ICES is a non-profit organization tasked with housing and conducting research of Ontario’s health administrative data. Data is available on all legal residents of Ontario, Canada most populous province. In addition, these health administrative data are being supplemented with data from other sources, such as maternal and newborn clinical data, newborn screening data, and immigration […]

Solutions proposed by software engineering researchers are not usually used by practitioners due to the lack of tool support. The research software Dione was developed as a solution to this problem. Dione is a platform agnostic integrated software analytics solution to tackle this problem. We have implemented prediction models for effort estimation and defect prediction […]
