Information security is of paramount importance to Canada and its enterprises. In this project, the intern will research, design and implement components of an enterprise Digital Rights Management (DRM) solution with iThinkSecurity Ltd. DRM allows for control over digital data redistribution. The target platforms are phones and tablets, which are rapidly becoming a main source […]

Chest radiography is a common and essential examination tool in medical practice for the diagnosis of lung diseases. Recent approaches in artificial intelligence have demonstrated that transfer learning of deep learning models was able to provide performance gains at the level of practicing radiologists. These techniques transfer the features learned on ImageNet to medical data […]

Founded in 2011, StreamScan is an organization specialized in computer security operational. The company is composed of several experts in the fields of management security incidents, intrusion detection, security audit, penetration testing, security governance, security breach detection and of artificial intelligence applied to cybersecurity. StreamScan’s expertise is used by many cyber-victimized organizations attacks. Its incident […]

The first master student internship (5. Berube, Bombardier) concerns the optimization of trimming parameters for two materials. The carbon-epoxy composites as well as the multi-layer material including aluminum and titanium in stacks under the carbon-epoxy laminate. At Bombardier, Sebastien will familiarizes with all the composite manufacturing process and the actual machining done at one or […]

L’objectif de cette étude est de décrire l’utilisation des services de garde par les familles colombiennes de la Mauricie et leur impact sur leur vie professionnelle. Elle permettra de générer de nouvelles connaissances sur les améliorations possibles au soutien offert aux familles étrangères. Les caractéristiques du processus d’intégration actuellement utilisé par la ville de Trois-Rivières […]

Confocal microscopy is a specialized imaging technique that is used by universities and pharmaceutical companies to perform drug discovery. The research team developed a multiplexing technique that can improve the imaging speed by 1000 times. In this project, the team will develop customized versions of the instrument with different cameras to cater to specific customer […]

Localization is a technical to find the location of a target, such as a worker walking in a plant. For outdoor localization, satellite-based global positioning system (GPS) is commonly used. GPS does not provide good accuracy for indoor localization due to the complicated indoor environment that affects the GPS signal propagation. Currently, there are two […]

Researchers at the University of Waterloo have developed atmospheric pressure spatial atomic layer deposition technology for depositing thin films that are nanometers (billionths of a meter) thick. Notably, the developed equipment can deposit these films rapidly, over large areas, in open air. This technology can be useful in a number of sectors, such as display […]

Solvent-based coatings are used for protecting transportation vessels, buildings and infrastructures. They give glossy and durable coatings to protect materials, but their continued use is dangerous to workers and causes environmental damage. Environmentally friendly and safer water-based alternatives exist, but they are less durable and suffer from inferior performance. Unfortunately, the process used to make […]

We propose to perform detailed studies that characterize chemically and biologically and the unaltered ancestral plant species of the Cannabis genus. Chemically, these studies will provide the chemotype profiles for each parental species for a spectrum of non-tetrahydrocannabinoid compounds. Biologically, these studies will provide the pharmacological profiles for each parental species. These data will enable […]

Type II diabetes affects around 9% of the North-American population. While it may be reversed by a change of life style and diet, it can cause irrepairable damage if left untreated. Tests that involve taking multiple blood samples are usually administered to find out if a subject has, or is at risk of developing, type […]

Climate change is having an affect all aspects of everyday life. In some regions, climate change could also have a negative impact on buildings. To help cope with these expected issues, we will be reviewing the Canadian masonry design standards in order to identify specific aspects of masonry construction that need special attention in their […]
