Systems today often handle massive amount of data with little regard to privacy or security issues that may arise. This problem has become more acute as more and more individuals and organizations are using cloud-based data storage. Encryption techniques has often provided a key role in protecting sensitive information, however many challenges remain in using […]

Work conducted during this project will involve the extension and further development of existing methods for detailed measurement and subsequent modelling of radiowave propagation characteristics in indoor environments at extremely high frequencies. Results will enable the determination of the powers, time delays, and angles of arrival of waves incident upon a receive antenna over direct, […]

Current Computational Pipeline Modeling based leak detection systems can not accurately predict the leaks in the pipeline when crude oil goes though phase change (column separation) along the 100s of kms long pipeline (due to hills and valleys). The objective of this project is to gain fundamental insight into the two phase gas-liquid flow physics […]

This MITACS proposal focuses on the chemical processes occurring that may enhance or inhibit microbial growth, identify and detect key microbial chemical precursors to MIC, and development of models to predict/mitigate MIC. It is part of a much larger Genome Canada project where the information and models developed in the proposal will be used in […]

The smart hybrid DC-AC microgrid is an emerging technology with remarkable potential benefits such as (i) facilitating integration of distributed energy resources and renewables, (ii) improving reliability and quality of the electrical energy supplied to the consumers, (iii) increasing the efficiency of power generation, transmission, and distribution systems, and (iv) facilitating implementation of Electric Vehicle […]

The intention of this collaborative research effort is to create an accurate digital 3D model of the City of Toronto waterfront that can be used by city planners to visualize factors relevant to the city when making high-level decisions regarding infrastructure and policy. This project is a collaboration between OCAD University and Esri Canada Limited, […]

Dans un système audio, les haut-parleurs sont les principales sources de distorsions non linéaires dans le son. Le système électromécanique de ces derniers produits des distorsions harmoniques et d’intermodulation, ce qui cause une dégradation de la qualité du son. Ces effets sont particulièrement considérables dans les basses fréquences, là où le déplacement mécanique de la […]

A-Le premier volet de ce projet vise à déterminer en amont les seuils de performance dans les firmes de GC pour identifier le fonctionnement de la gestion de risquesOp en fonction de la gouvernance et des pratiques en santé et sécurité au travail. B- Le deuxième volet en aval vise à déterminer les pratiques de […]

L’exploration de données est le processus d’acquérir des modèles, des connaissances et des informations à partir d’un ensemble de données et les transformer en une structure compréhensible et explicable pour une utilisation à l’avance. Dans notre application, un algorithme intelligent nous aide á gagner du temps et bien s’assurer de la concordance de l’article au […]

Ce projet de recherche avec l’institut de recherche d’Hydro-Québec a pour but de travailler l’accompagnement d’un institut de recherche dans la mise en place de processus lui permettant d’intégrer de mieux détecter, travailler, intégrer et valoriser des innovations à fort potentiel de valeur. Plus spécifiquement, le stagiaire doctorant accompagnera et fera un suivi des impacts […]

Most cameras today, take photographs by measuring the amount of light in a scene. This means that they discard any information about the directionality of light, which results in a two-dimensional representation of the three-dimensional scene. We have developed a new type of camera that can detect the direction of light as well as image […]
