The NSERC Strategic Network for Smart Applications on Virtual Infrastructures is a five-year partnership between Canadian industry, universities, researchers, research and education (R&E) networks, and high performance computing centres to investigate the design of future application platforms that will deliver software applications of greater capability and intelligence. These application platforms will be supported by an […]

Metafor is developing a new class of IT system management solutions and as a part of this, wants a method to show differences between multiple deployed instances of an application. To implement this, Metafor requires an accurate, high-performance generalized tree differencing algorithm. Differencing algorithms are used for comparing different versions of a document or snapshots […]

Ciena, the network specialist, is collaborating with Universities and SMEs in Ontario and Québec in order to develop an ecosystem that accelerates advanced research and development activities in the fields of highcapacity optical transmission systems, software defined networks, business intelligence and process automation. A steady-state of over 50 Masters, PhD and Post-Doc students per year, […]

Online business processes are different from traditional web applications and typical healthcare applications. Online business processes involve the collaboration of multiple user roles interacting with multiple services in parallel. They are usually implemented using Business Process management (BPM) technology that defines an explicit business process model to flexibly combine forms delivered through a web browser […]

Lorsqu’une entreprise fait l’acquisition d’un CRM, elle doit s’assurer que les utilisateurs en font une utilisation adéquate, sans quoi l’achat ne rapportera pas les bénéfices escomptés. Encore aujourd’hui, on remarque que plusieurs organisations n’utilisent pas leur CRM à son plein potentiel. L’objectif de cette étude est donc de comprendre comment assurer une meilleure utilisation d’un […]

Merging different sub-companies into TELUS caused some of customer records to be repeated through the merged data-set. Algorithms are needed to determine the duplicate records. Currently a deterministic algorithm is being used in TELUS. In this project, we will investigate if machine learning can help to detect duplicates. Solving this problem has several parts. We […]

NightShift optimizes customers’ bandwidth usage when using streaming services. It does this by taking advantage of off-peak bandwidth availability to cache digital media content addressing both problems of limited bandwidth (which impacts real-time streaming) and bandwidth quotas (which can result in bandwidth throttling or overage charges). The goal of this research is to explore interfaces […]

Most people find it difficult to monitor and manage all of their financial data, due to the time and effort required to track their spending. With the advent of e-finance, instead of barter or cash-based transactions, most transaction data utilizes debit or credit cards. The resulting electronic “paper-trail” opens the possibility of helping individuals to […]

In an alien or possibly hostile environment, the situation awareness of a remote robot operator will be limited. Map information may not be known beforehand. The site may also be in a dynamic state where changes occur in the surrounding in any moment. The main objective of this project is to develop novel technologies to […]

This activity focuses on developing a high-efficiency proof-of-concept prototype for a wireless energy transmission system. The objective is to utilize the technology for wirelessly charging multiple batteries in low power portable devices such as mobile electronics, e.g., personal digital assistants (PDA) and smart-phones. The system consists of two windings, transmitter and receiver, that are in […]

People are social creatures and interacting with others is a fundamental human behavior. As people spend more time online, a larger part of their social life also become online. Online Forums such as Reddit have become very popular because of this. In this project, we want to define the what health means with regards to […]
