Software designed Networks (SDN), in particular OpenFlow and FORCES, encourage the writing of network protocols and policies as programs with the stated goal to make those programs ever more expressive, more predictable, more evolvable and more usable. Within the OpenFlow initiative, the level of programmability is expressed in a set of policy rules that are […]

Grapes will be exposed to volatiles from plants to investigate if the sensory profile of wine made from those grapes can be improved. The volatiles from forest fire smoke can get into grapes and negatively affect the sensory profile of wines, which is referred to as smoke taint. Grapes are most susceptible to smoke taint […]

Charitable Gaming Platform Innovation and Enhancements The Lotto Factory was established in 2018 and has developed, tested, and deployed an online gaming platform for the charitable and not-for-profit sectors. This initial version of the platform has been adopted by more than 150 charitable and not-for-profit organizations allowing them to raise much-needed unrestricted funds online. Our […]

En soi, le projet sera axé sur la recherche et le développement puisque Mélina sera chargée d’analyser et évaluer les retombées environnementales de nos publicités. Le projet aura une grande valeur pour l’agence et nos clients. En effet, il s’agit clairement d’un volet sous-exploité qui viendrait compléter à merveille l’offre de service de notre département […]

Considering the facts that road salts pose significant environmental impacts and infrastructural damages, this research will evaluate the organic products for snow and ice control for transportation facilities. An extensive field tests will be conducted focusing snow melting performances of the organic liquids over regular bine over an expected ranges of weather and other external […]

In this project, inputs from the different stakeholders in the transition to Net Zero economy will be collected and analyzed to facilitate the development of simulation models that can inform policy making to steer this transition in the most efficient and effective way. Two sets of workshops will be organized, with invitees from academia, different […]

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) have been key in advancing the development of next generation therapies for hard-to-treat conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, heart disease and cancer. These unique cells have the potential to become any cell of the body which accounts for their importance in the field of regenerative medicine. It is crucial to […]

The long-term effects of climate change and outbreaks of mountain pine beetle (MPB) on forests in western Canada are not well understood. In this project, we will develop quantitative models to assess the impacts of climate change and forest resilience on MPB outbreaks and persistence in forests. These models will be informed by the MPB […]

Carbon dioxide generated by burning fossil fuels is one of the major greenhouse gases responsible for the climate change. There is a world-wide effort to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. In addition to renewable resources such as solar and wind power, hydrogen is emerging as a green energy source. The energy […]

Le but du projet est de développer une méthode de gestion thermique des batteries d’un robot à propulsion électrique pour l’inspection de stations électriques. Ce véhicule devrait diminuer l’intervention humaine dans les sites éloignés, en faisant de l’inspection contrôlée à distance. Un défi majeur de ce type de véhicule est la capacité de stocker de […]

We want to learn about the video game “Get Water!” at the Linden School for Girls in Toronto with students between the ages of 10 – 14, from their perspective. This research will involve their teachers and parents as co-researchers who will be asked to keep a journal for two weeks about anything the girls […]

Le but de ce projet consiste à automatiser les mesures acoustiques dans un bâtiment à l’aide d’un robot mobile qui se déplace de manière autonome à semi-autonome d’une position de mesures à l’autre et déclenche de lui-même ces mesures à l’aide d’un sonomètre relié à un microphone. Le projet de recherche consiste à développer la […]
