The project aims to develop an AI/ML model that forecasts future climate-related physical risks exposure, enabling the quantification of the financial impact of climate change. This initiative is part of a pilot project involving municipalities. The model will empower businesses, governments, and organizations to effectively build climate adaptation plans.

The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a key component in the Mobile Next Generation Network, which is used by telecommunications operators throughout the world to provide access to multimedia and broadband services. As these services become more sophisticated, and as the number of clients rises drastically, it is increasingly expensive to install and operate a […]

Malgré les nombreuses avancées dans le traitement du cancer, cette maladie reste la première cause de mortalité au Canada. Une voie prometteuse de traitement est l’immmunothérapie dont le but est de moduler le système immunitaire afin de renforcer sa capacité à identifier et détruire les cellules tumorales. Dans ce contexte, il est possible d’utiliser des […]

The term Web of Things (WoT) refers to the concept of integrating resources and interactions involving devices, data, and people on the web. WoT features interactions as first class entities above and beyond traditional web resources and, thus, enabling applications with substantial context awareness, personalization, and automation. Lively is a new open source approach to […]

Over 4 months we will work to scope and structure global innovation efforts in one, and potentially more, key areas to tackle large sustainability challenges. The areas are SF6, plastics (with a focus on bio plastics) and agricultural innovation (including soil carbon measurement). A large focus will be on innovation to tackle the challenge of […]

Line-commutated Converters (LCC) have been used for over half a century due to their robustness as well as high power capacity. However, they can face challenges from voltage and frequency disturbances in the case of terminating in a very weak ac network. Such systems use synchronous condensers (SCs) to provide voltage and frequency support at […]

Ignite leads integrated economic development growth through diverse initiatives that create an environment for our communities and businesses to be successful. We create a climate for growth through the support of job creation, entrepreneur development, workforce attraction and community support in the Capital and Western New Brunswick Regions. Presently they are facing challenges in effectively […]

A retrospective cohort study design will be used to determine the population-based incidence of sepsis in infants up to 28 days after birth, and by gestational age in weeks. The project will use BC data from the Perinatal Registry on all births over 16 years, and readmissions up to 28 days after birth. The intern […]

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada has initiated a program to reduce fertilizer N2O emissions by 30 % from 2020 to 2030 [14]. Accurate monitoring of agricultural N2O emissions is crucial for understanding their environmental impact and implementing effective mitigation strategies. Current research mainly focuses on measuring N2O emissions from the ground. The spectroscopic-based LI-COR sensor is […]

Développement d’une solution IA pour accélérer la réponse aux demandes de support technique et faciliter l’accès à la documentation technique. Le stage se concentrera sur le développement d’un chatbot, qui utilisera des données structurées pour fournir des recommandations en temps réel. L’efficacité du chatbot sera évaluée par un taux de satisfaction des utilisateurs de 80%. […]

The project will investigate the use of non-linear optimization and heuristic methods such as Genetic algorithms to determine the parameters of commercial induction motors from available manufacturer data. The developed model will be simulated using electromagnetic transients simulation programs. A suitable objective function will be developed which penalizes deviation off the simulation results from manufacturers’ […]

The objective of the Indigenous Clean Fuels Knowledge Transfer Project is to increase clean fuels knowledge in Indigenous communities and businesses, and improve the public’s understanding of the measurement, monitoring, verification and data collection strategies for greenhouse gas emission reduction targets and standards used by government, industry and regulatory bodies. Under this project, the Proponents […]
