En raison d’une croissance qui n’est pas constaté qu’en terme de RH mais bien d’actifs divers l’organisation doit se réorganiser et surtout bien se préparer pour valoriser cette période de grands changements. Si à une petite échelle la gestion des investissements en actifs est facile, il en est tout autre lorsqu’on parle d’investissement 5-10 fois […]

The carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere has been increasing continuously due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels, which causes global climate change. Conventional CO2 capture strategies are practical, but they are costly and only lower the rate of CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. To decrease the global concentration of CO2 in […]

To harvest renewable energy from ocean waves, in this research we propose to study innovative triboelectric nanogenerators, a new type of energy harvesters especially good at converting small-scale mechanical motions into electricity. Although ocean wave energy is one of the most abundant and widely distributed renewable energy resources, it has not yet been extensively used […]

The next generation of smart Internet services requires a high level of data protection for sensitive information exchanged (e.g., bank transactions, defense operations). The forthcoming advent of accessible quantum computation will put at risk any classical encryption protocols. Unbreakable data protection, against cyberattacks or unauthorized access, can be guaranteed by quantum encryption protocols, such as […]

This research aims to address one of the challenging problems in open science, i.e., how to reliably ensure that authors share all of the datasets, code, protocols, and any new lab materials associated with their articles. The solution will employ state-of-the-art natural language processing techniques to detect sentences where authors describe data collection or the […]

Most approaches to intelligent, speech-enabled devices today in the research world involve training neural networks on prohibitively large amounts of examples, with little direct control over what is actually learned. On the other hand, this approach often cannot be applied in real-world settings where the required amount of examples does not yet exist, or the […]

Quantum technologies (QTs) such as quantum computing, information processing, and sensing will characterize next generation lives. For this reason, many efforts have been spent to implement quantum platforms for integrated, affordable, and reproducible QTs. Quantum photonics provides an ideal framework to achieve this goal. In this project, we will deliver an integrated quantum photonic platform […]

3D concrete printing and the digital design processes associated with this technology are developing quickly across the world, both in academia and in practice, moving from the realm of the artisan to the early stages of automated manufacturing. How do architects engage this emerging new field that combines fabrication technologies with material in their design […]

Since the onset of the digital age, the need to process tremendous amounts of data has become of critical importance for healthcare, financial, and government sectors. This has made information processing tasks increasingly complex, and thus far, there exists no realistic platform that can meet the stringent requirements of the computation industry, e.g., in terms […]

The outcome of the Project is an intelligent uncrewed surface vehicle or USV (free-swimming robot) that can deploy an underwater remotely operated vehicle or ROV (robot tethered to the surface vehicle) to survey and inspect the submerged infrastructure of offshore wind farms. Its advantages to Canada include its much smaller carbon footprint compared to the […]

Studies performed over the last 10 years or so have revealed that the primary power of human stem cells lies in what they produce and release or excrete, not the cells themselves; this includes growth factors, paracrine factors, peptides, extracellular vesicles (EVs), and most importantly, exosomes. This is good news, as it means we can […]

Shortening the difference between where energy is generated and where it is being used, the need for heavy-duty transmission infrastructure could be avoided to reduce the amount of energy lost along the way and eliminate the impact of grid failure. The proposed project, a thermal microgrid, can connect alternative generation, renewable generation, rejected or waste […]
