Dans un contexte de changement et d’évolution rapide des technologies, se pose la question de l’apprentissage tout au long de la vie et du développement des compétences numériques chez les jeunes en situation de vulnérabilité. C’est pourquoi les jeunes, filles et garçons, issus de la diversité (culturelle, économique, sociale, etc.), ont des défis à relever […]

Today’s data-center network services cover a broad spectrum that evolve rapidly which means that regularly new services need to be deployed in production networks in a timely manner. Using network programmability, a network programmer can write a precise specification of what the network behaviour should be, and this specification is translated by a compiler and […]

Buildings represent up to 40% of primary energy consumption. To optimize that energy cost vs. the comfort of its occupants, Facility Management (FM) relies on data from sensors, and on automation, to increase efficiency. The majority of existing buildings however have limited automation, so it is up to Facility Managers to interpret and act upon […]

Mental health issues affect a large percentage of the military population. The HERE4U Military Version will be an instant messaging smartphone application to connect military family members (adults only) who are dealing with mental health problems to a mental health counseling solution that uses the IBM Watson cognitive platform. Being able to engage with Watson […]

This collaborative project with Rimeware will investigate out-of-band measurement approaches that can passively monitor the network traffic and provide rich detailed network information, e.g., latency, loss, route path, etc. The goal is to build a programmable system for accurate, generic, and robust network measurement. It includes two sub projects. In the first sub-project, we will […]

The fundamental purpose of this research is to identify and understand ways in which workplaces can become “schools”, and facilitate meaningful learning for their employees. The intern will describe the main characteristics of an organizational learning culture that fosters experiential, self-directed and collaborative learning, document organizational practices that support such a learning culture and collect […]

Recently there has been a growing adoption of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in many applications. Robust object detection and tracking algorithms are required in many UAV scenarios. However, existing object detection and tracking approaches are not specifically designed for UAV and therefore do not have satisfactory performance in UAV. In this MITACS cluster project, by […]

This project focuses on using blockchain technology and smart contracts to manage the health care data access. Blockchain is the distributed ledger based on verified transactions, and the smart contract is the programmable part of the blockchain which can automate more complex transactions. Blockchain provides a secure and durable distributed database to store data accesses […]

Bell’s Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) team is collaborating with academic institutions in order to further research and develop cyber security analytics for the protection of critical infrastructure and data. The focus of this research is to create and leverage Machine learning for Data Exfiltration on Big Data specifically for network security purposes. This research to […]

The goal of the project is to gain insight into individuals’ reactions to an artificial intelligence (AI) product currently in development at Kiite. The product is designed to fulfill some of the role responsibilities typically occupied by a manager. Trust is an important factor in both leader-employee relationships and in user experiences with AI-based systems. […]

Journalism in Canada and elsewhere has been disrupted by changes in technology, in markets, and in people’s habits of news consumption. This disruption has been bad for business, and over one-third of journalists have in Canada lost their jobs in the last decade. It’s also been bad for public knowledge, as seen by the rise […]

By virtualizing all the various appliances in the network, Network Function Virtualization (NFV) became a key enabler for the coming 5G infrastructure and nowadays a major shift is under way bringing an evolution to cloud-native NFV. In the latter operational model, applications are decomposed into microservices running inside containers to enable automated installation, configuration and […]
