The evaluation of the wind resource and its associated energy production over the life cycle of the wind power project is one of the most important elements to determine the profitability of a wind power project since a bank bases its decision on the energy production that is estimated to occur with a 99% probability. […]

Presently, there are almost 100,000 people in Canada with COVID-19, the disease caused by the SARS CoV-2 virus, and almost 7000 have died. Although an effective vaccine is the ultimate goal, it is a long way off. To slow the spread and reduce the medical, social, and economic burdens, new treatments are needed. To find […]

Merinio propose une solution de gestion des remplacements : leur logiciel permet à l’employeur de communiquer directement avec les employés pour leur proposer des opportunités de remplacements. De l’autre côté, les employés peuvent prévenir leur employeur de leurs absences (afin que l’employeur puisse savoir qui a besoin d’être remplacé) et de s’ils acceptent une des […]

Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is a deadly birth defect affecting 1/5000 children. These children are missing innervation from the enteric nervous system (ENS), resulting in severe constipation and a high risk of bacterial translocation into blood causing premature death. Surgery to remove ENS-devoid bowel is generally life-saving but many children with HSCR continue to have severe […]

Some of the bacteria present in healthy lungs protect the lung against harmful germs. Studies have shown that people with lung diseases often lack these “good” bacteria in their lungs. Our team has been demonstrated that breathing polluted air causes lung inflammation, which can make it hard to breathe, especially for people who have lung […]

Cloud computing allows consumers to reduce the costs associated with the purchase and maintenance of computing infrastructure, platform and software resources by exploiting on-demand resource provisioning and pay-per-use payment models. Although, cloud computing has offered significant benefits to the IT indistry, the research on cloud computing is currently at its infancy, with many issues still […]

In order to help deal with COVID-19 pandemic, there is an urgent need for development of fast, reliable, and sensitive tests that will be capable of detecting IgG and IgM proteins directly in people’s blood. Our novel test for detection of IgG and IgM proteins in the blood offers several major advantages compared to other […]

This project is about using artificial intelligence to interpret agricultural remote sensing data. We will develop new means to integrate repeated imagery data of targeted agricultural fields to pinpoint agronomically significant anomalies (e.g., water or nutrient stress, crop pathology, weeds, etc.) and provide field managers easy to follow recommendations guiding development of the most cost […]

This project will be comprised of exploratory research as well as independent research with various mobile location based technologies. The first component of the project will involve working with an existing home automation platform called iControl (www.icontrol.com). The second component of the project will be the development of a “Family Finder” mobile application that interacts […]

The overall objective for this project is to support the research of one PhD student to advance the methods for modelling energy-climate policies, a field in which START in the School of Resource and Environmental Management at SFU is one of the leading research units in the country and in which Navius Research Incorporated is […]
