Le projet demandé vise à accomplir un séjour de recherche en Israël dans l’objectif d’y rencontrer la professeure de linguistique et spécialiste de la polémique, Ruth Amossy. Ce stage permettra d’acquérir une expertise pour l’analyse d’un corpus polémique, par l’apprentissage de la méthode propre à Mme Amossy. Le projet permettra en ourte de nouer des […]

Detecting changes in a building using remote sensing images has been an essential research topic in Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) and used for characterization and quantification of change detection on footprints of buildings or buildings’ rooftops. The purpose of the research project includes the choosing and testing RS and GIS methods […]

The research project will investigate the impacts of the US-Canada border on conservation of at-risk species around the region of the Okanagan watershed, in the context of culture, politics and land governance. Species distribution modelling will be used to compare distributions of selected species either side of the border, and environmental, social and geographical variables […]

My project proposes to analyze representations of the built environment in William McFarlane Notman’s photographs of the Royal Tour of Canada in 1901. Held at the McCord Museum in Montreal, the photographs picture the tour taken by the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York (later King George V and Queen Mary) across Canada on […]

For the past nearly seven years, the Sqéwqel Development Corporation L.L.P. has been working to empower the Seabird membership through employment, business development, and financial opportunities. SqDC has been undertaking multiple economic activities for profitable businesses, creating new jobs, developing our local economy to the benefit of the Seabird members, and fostering business opportunities while […]

Swhidgets are Graphical User Interface (GUI) components common in touch-base devices, by default entirely hidden under another interface element. To use a Swhidget, the user must first uncover them with a dedicated onscreen swipe gesture, relying on the metaphor of sliding a physical object. Swhidgets notoriously suffer from a discoverability problem, as they do not […]

The research will focus on understanding how same-day delivery courier companies can collaborate with retailers in order to form a mutually beneficial option for the end consumer. It will focus on choosing retailers that can have such service incorporated into their current operations. The challenges, risks, and considerations of the transition will be analyzed to […]

The project icludes […]

Ce projet de recherche propose d’étudier l’origine de la latéralité humaine. En effet, la vaste majorité des humains préfère systématiquement l’utilisation d’une main relativement à l’autre tandis que nos plus proches cousins, les grands singes, n’ont pas une telle préférence. Cette préférence pour une main plutôt que l’autre est détectable dans nos os puisque ceux […]

According to the existing airworthiness standards, aircraft turbofan engine certification must demonstrate its ability to contain a fan blade should the blade accidentally separate under critical operating conditions. P&WC has established a full engine computational analysis process. In the continuing evolution of this modelling process, several areas requiring improvement have been identified as critical. One […]

This project plans to use dental calculus (miniralised plaque) samples to acquire a better understanding of the development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the human oral microbiome. This will be the first metagenomic study regarding antibiotic resistance genes dating back to the Industrial Revolution (c. 1750-1850). We expect to detect some evidence of ARGs based […]
