SOTI MoblControl is an enterprise mobllity management solution that secures and manages, mobile devices and the mobile data across all endpomts. To ensure end-to-end security, MobiControl encrypts all communication between the MobiControl Manager and the Deployment Server uslng Secure Socket layer (SSL). The SSL Is a cryptographic protocol that is use widely for secure communication. […]

Hydro-Québec has data acquisition systems for a multitude of sensors, some of which have been installed since almost 20 years in its electrical generation equipment (turbine-generator units – TGU). The collected data is primarily used to ensure that the information is adequate in the event of an equipment breakdown or for specific behavioral studies. Data […]

The pre-trained Bi-directional Encoder Representation from Transformers (BERT) model had proven to be a milestone in the field of Neural Machine Translation, achieving new state-of-the-art performances on many tasks in the field of Natural Language Processing. Despite its success, it has been noticed that there are still a lot of room for improvement, both in […]

Heat stress, defined as temperature and humidity above the threshold of animal comfort, is experienced in Canadian dairy farms each year despite the improvements in cooling conditions and results in important reductions in production of milk and of milk components. Such reductions represent lower production efficiency and therefore higher environmental impact per unit of product […]

Brain MRI scans are a critical component in the diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders. However, there is a wide diversity in terms of the image quality and resolution obtained from different MRI scanner. In particular, it is common to find coarse resolution MRI scans (e.g. every axial slice is 3-5 mm thick), which limit the type […]

Machine-transcription of speech into text is very helpful in many scenarios. Consider the case of machine-transcription of conversation between a Doctor and a patient. If we are able partition and identify the segments of patient’s speech from those of doctor’s, then the transcribed text is more structured and can be more helpful for further use. […]

In this project, we propose to expand support of SOTI’s MobiControl (MC) to Tizen Operating System. SOTI MobiControl has assisted numerous enterprises to overcome the management issues due to lack of security and improve business performance by monitoring the health and safety of employees, and increasing productivity, with the introduction of wearables and other IoT […]

By virtualizing all the various appliances in the network, Virtual Network Functions (VNF) became a key enabler for the coming 5G infrastructure and nowadays a major shift is under way bringing an evolution to cloud-native VNF. In the latter operational model, applications are decomposed into microservices running inside containers to enable automated installation, configuration and […]

This project explores and develops various strategies for the design of net zero energy high-rise mixed-use buildings. Net zero energy refers to the capacity of a building to generate renewable energy to supply all its yearly energy consumption. A mixed-use building combines residential and commercial building functions (e.g. retail, offices, etc.). Strategies that will be […]

Chaque année, des centaines d’associations professionnelles tiennent leur événement annuel dans une destination différente dans le monde. Ces rencontres servent aux participants pour acquérir des connaissances dans leur domaine d’expertise et faire du réseautage avec leur s collègues des autres pays. Notre projet de recherche pose les questions suivantes : Comment de tels évènements pourraient […]

The main duty of Hydro-Québec is to repond efficiently to the energy demand of customers, in a safe and secure way while remaining competitive in the markets as well. The main goal of this start-up project is to support Hydro-Québec in developing a future-oriented energy system by proposing innovative technical solutions. Among these solutions, deep […]
