Dementia affects our memory, thinking, emotions and ability to perform everyday tasks and the prevalence of dementia is increasing in the Ottawa region with over 24 000 living with dementia. Recently, the DSORC launched a new website called www.dementia613.ca – the region’s most trusted dementia-friendly resource directory. The site currently serves only between 4-5,000 of […]

Depuis quelques années un nouveau stratagème criminel s’est taillé une place de choix au sein de la communauté des cybercriminels et a pris un essor considérable : les rançongiciels ou ransomware. Ces logiciels malveillants qui infectent les ordinateurs de leurs victimes et demandent en échange le paiement d’une rançon sont devenus une des cybermenaces les […]

Le projet de recherche proposé s’inscrit dans le plus large contexte d’une thèse de doctorat. La thèse vise à étudier l’évolution de la technologie métallurgique à Argilos, une cité située dans le nord de la Grèce, fondée à l’époque archaïque et qui prospère à travers la période classique. L’étude de la vaste collection d’artéfacts de […]

Gallium nitride (GaN) high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) are good candidates to replace the traditional silicon-based transistors. Although these devices show superior performances compared to Si and SiC-based devices, they suffer from some reliability issues. The aim of this research project is to improve the performance of the GaN HEMTs and enhance their reliability by performing a […]

Les petits appareils connectés qui surveillent les signes vitaux n’existent actuellement pas en pédiatrie. L’objectif de cette étude est d’évaluer la fiabilité d’un patch connecté collé sur la poitrine des enfants pour la surveillance continue de leurs signes vitaux comme la saturation en oxygène, ou la fréquence cardiaque. Nous réaliserons cette étude dans un service […]

This project explores the history of bird sound recording in Canada and the USA, with a specific focus on the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology at Cornell University, New York, which holds the world’s largest bird sound archive. I will focus on three case study recordings: Arthur A Allen and Peter Paul Kellogg’s 1935 Ivory-Billed Woodpecker […]

The ever-growing market of portable electronic devices (e.g., laptop computers, tablets, smartphones) has resulted in the penetration of AC adapters in households greater than ever. Accordingly, the portability of such devices entails substantial demands for light-weighted and compact devices. This necessitates the critical need for high power density and highly efficient adapters. In particular, consumers […]

Wound dressings are indispensable in medical operation as they protect the wound from contamination by foreign matter, absorb wound exudate and control the humidity of the wound to promote healing. Mitigating technology can be integrated in modern wound dressings to expedite the healing process and reduce scarring. In this proposal, we will develop an innovative […]

Over the past few years, Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance in machine learning tasks on graph data and have been widely applied to many real-world applications across different fields, such as traffic prediction, user behavior analysis, and fraud detection. However, networks in the real world are often with heterogeneous degree distributions, such […]

The objective of this project is to develop an algorithmic system, trained on both public legal data and proprietary negotiation data, that will provide tailored predictions of likely court-based dispute resolution outcomes and optimal settlements. In the proposed sub-project, a team of interns (JD students) will be modelling and labelling dispute-resolution data on complaints against […]

Dynamic stresses in transmission lines mainly originates from the winds. To control these vibrations and stresses, damper devices are commonly used. In some countries, including France, bretelle dampers are used. Bretelle damper is a low tensioned pieces of conductors that is attached to the overhead conductor spans near the span-ends by means of clamps. Bretelle […]
