This research aims to provide an affordable, clean energy alternative to meet the world’s cooling demands. As global warming, urbanization, and society’s dependency on digital storage increases, the world’s cooling demands continue to rapidly grow with predictions showing that they will outweigh heating demands by 2060. The majority of these demands are currently being met […]

Le développement de réseaux profonds de haute qualité repose sur des essais et des erreurs substantielles et la fiabilité de ces réseaux n’est pas clairement comprise. Dans ce projet, Thales Recherche et Technologie propose d’établir un processus clair allant de la collecte des données aux phases d’apprentissage et de prévision afin d’évaluer, de manière rigoureuse […]

A novel approach is taken to reduce vibration through the design of a passive smart device with the use of magnetic actuators. In the proposed device, magnets are arranged in a particular alignment, so as to attenuate the resulting vibrations from the explosion at the moment of firing. The device has shown to be effective […]

Développement du premier logiciel de vision par ordinateur propulsé par l’apprentissage profond et déployé en périphérie (edge) permettant aux entreprises manufacturières de détecter la présence de contaminants à l’intérieur de seringues après leur remplissage et de rejeter celles qui ne respectent pas les critères d’inspection.

Implanted medical devices have dramatically improved the lives of millions of patients worldwide. However, in many cases, the body’s immune system rejects these devices and encapsulates the implant in fibrous scar tissue. This reaction is most detrimental to sensors for continuous monitoring and treatment of chronic conditions such as diabetes and those of the central […]

Genetic advances over the past 10 years have led to the development of several targeted therapies for lung, breast and colon cancer. However, there are a number of factors that limit the optimal use of these innovations, including the high cost of the organizational process associated with molecular testing, and their late use in the […]

COVID-19 has significantly impacted the world. Nucleic acid, CT, and fever tests are standard tests, but they suffer from various limitations. For instance, CT requires large & expensive equipment. The nucleic acid test is not portable and takes at least two days. As sensor technologies get more advanced, a portable, low-cost and fast diagnosis COVID-19 […]

A central venous catheter (CVC) is a thin, silicone tube that a doctor may insert into the vein of a patient to deliver medications directly into their bloodstream. If the patient does not need constant medication, nurses fill the CVC with salt water to keep the tube open. This is called ‘locking’ the CVC. Because […]

Closing the Gap Healthcare has been delivering high-quality health care in communities since 1990. Closing the Gap (CTG) offers a range of services for clients of all ages and are a leader in complex care cases. The Centre for Mobile Innovation (CMI) at Sheridan College has collaborated with CTG and is in the process of […]

Online social networks model and operate primarily on explicit relationships between people. However, many high-value social activities are not mediated by relationships of this kind. Instead, people who may not know each other nonetheless co-ordinate their activities because they attend to similar cues in their cultural environment. This research work aims at exploring ways to […]

This project aims at providing new and tractable models and solution procedures to optimize production, inventory, distribution and routing decisions simultaneously. This type of problem, commonly called Production Routing Problem (PRP), is especially important in the context of Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI), in which the supplier manages the inventories of retailers and decides on the […]

Anti-Black racism presents a major barrier in the social participation of African Caribbean Black (ACB) Canadians in civic leadership, arts and culture, and employment, as well as barriers to justice as negative relationships are created between communities and criminal justice systems. Resulting barriers and negative relationships are structural drivers of health inequity. In response, the […]
