For RUNNR to be successful when entering new cities across western Canada, RUNNR will need to develop a scalable driver operations strategy to ensure that deliveries are completed within their advertised time frames and guarantee customer satisfaction. Additionally, RUNNR will require developing and understanding the minimum driver threshold to provide adequate service to customers prior […]

Le projet se sépare en deux grandes catégories soit en premier lieu l’analyse, la recommandation & l’amélioration d’un système de suggestions intelligentes et en deuxième lieu l’analyse, la recommandation & l’implémentation des outils de cybersécurité permettant la certification cybersécuritaire Canada.

The number of structural assessment and evaluation projects in Canada is growing due to the aging of the existing infrastructure and the need for extending the service life of critical structures. Current practice utilizes simplified, rather conservative methods of assessment that do not typically yield optimized decisions regarding the safety condition of the existing structure […]

Euglena gracilis is a natural and abundant alga that is fed with food nutrients. It converts the food nutrients into a polymer called paramylon. My work is to use very safe science and convert the paramylon into all-natural food additives to replace the synthetic food additives that are prepared using unsustainable resources and hazardous chemicals. […]

The virus spike receptor has been used to successful generate vaccine candidates for SARS-CoV-2 infections. Furthermore, disruption of the virus interacting with host cells represents a viable options for antiviral development. We will express both the viral spike protein and host ACE2 receptor for development of vaccine and antivirals.

The proposed research seeks to contribute to Indigenous cultural health and resilience by employing a three-phased approach of re-centering, re-animating, and repatriating archived belongings. These three phases involve the rethinking of archival structures in terms of Indigenous categorical systems (re-centering), the organization of collection spaces to promote Indigenous knowledge transmission (re-animating), and the return of […]

As the underlying networks transition into 5G and 6G infrastructure, the optimal task performance across different WIoT devices with different energy consumption and computing power require coordination at both the software and hardware levels to maximize accessibility and minimize latency to support emerging applications. The proposed research will explore the various parameter space to determine […]

The path to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 in Atlantic Canada is both time- and resource-constrained. Energy system models can be used in this context to compare climate change mitigation options and to strategically plan for meeting climate change goals through cost-effective and timely means. Motivated by these circumstances, Net Zero Atlantic is building an […]

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a scalable platform that integrates devices over the internet and runs different services such as energy and facility management easier than SCADA and similar industrial control systems (ICS). These platforms shall be designed securely and manage devices in a safe environment. However, existing IIoT platforms are not secure by […]

Tidal marshes are productive and economically important, providing valuable ecosystem services including disturbance regulation, waste treatment, and the ability to sequester carbon. Sturgeon Bank is a large tidal ecosystem that had a total tidal marsh area of 543 ha at its greatest extent this century. At least 160 ha of tidal marsh at Sturgeon Bank […]

This research investigates means for achieving net zero energy dwellings and neighborhoods through maximizing solar potential of dwelling units, isolated and in assemblages. This study will help the community planner to design an efficient layout to achieve maximum solar fraction. Optimum combine building loads in community will lead to a more energy efficient mechanical and […]

This project proposes multi-criteria decision-making and mathematical programming (optimization) techniques to design an integrated decision-making tool to assist organizations in managing this complex process and achieving more efficiency. For the first problem, allocating project managers, we develop a multi-criteria decision-making method that will offer the possibility to optimize the usage of PMs’ time considering the […]
