The project has the following objectives: 1. To build a simulation for a generic social model, to represent how effective a toxic text sentiment detection algorithm/model works within simulation a. Building a simulation model b. Testing the performance of the model using a dataset c. Evaluation of the model 2. Optimizing existing toxic text detection […]

Mining is important to the Canadian economy, contributing an estimated $43.9 billion in 2020 while addressing growing demand for minerals. Mine operations disturb natural environments, and Canadian federal and provincial authorities have instituted the Mines Act, and the Health, Safety and Reclamation Code for Mines in British Columbia, providing a regulatory framework for mine closure […]

The proposed project aims at developing novel algorithms for the 5G Core Network Placement to meet Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The ultimate goal is to minimize the number of virtual network functions in 5G packet core while meeting the latency requirements. Thus, this project aims to address the trade-off between latency and operational costs in […]

This project is focusing on the development of RCP coursewares for adjustable speed drive (ASD) systems with the OP8666 module. The OP8666 RCP module will be used to implement, test, and validate the control algorithms in real-time before being connected in the real-world ASD systems. Two ASD courseware module families have been agreed for the […]

Today, the world faces climate change, uncoordinated depletion of natural resources and rapid urbanization. Buildings in cities account for about 25% of the global energy consumption and 15% of the energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Likewise, in the province of Québec, buildings are responsible for a large share of the total energy use. A recent study […]

Marine icing problems pose significant risk to both marine vessel stability and human safety during harsh weather operations. The project will address a need for better physical understanding of marine icing phenomena and the development of appropriate sensors for detecting marine icing conditions. Current technologies have proven inadequate for marine conditions due to the complex […]

The business strategy intern will be instrumental in developing, documenting and implementing strategies to streamline our internal processes through the adoption of technology tools. This project will include the sales, operations, finance and technology departments to enhance communications and workflows.

Ce projet vise à approfondir les connaissances sur les facteurs influençant les ventes de livres, tant les ventes aux con-sommateurs dans les librairies indépendantes que les ventes aux bibliothèques, en se concentrant sur l’effet des prix littéraires. Les prix littéraires peuvent envoyer un signal de qualité, cependant la compréhension de l’effet des prix sur les […]

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become ubiquitous. However, many challenges still need to be addressed to capitalize on their unique capabilities to support the creation of new Internet-of-Things services. The main difficulty is managing a swarm of UAVs in challenging environments. This project focuses on developing and evaluating a new UAV-based persistent surveillance system (UPSS) […]

City staff are guided by policies when making decisions about their community. Some cities have taken the initiative to adopt a policy that embeds equity considerations into decision making. However, many other cities are still earlier in their path to creating more equitable communities and need support. Researchers and planning practitioners have heard from city […]

Cell-based therapies have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of chronic diseases such as endocrine and autoimmune disorders, neurological degeneration, and cancer. These treatments utilize cells as localized biofactories to secrete therapeutic molecules. However, one major roadblock in efficiently utilizing cell-based therapies is the cells survival and wellbeing in bioprinted devices. This is due to […]
