Critères clés de la transformation numérique en PME manufacturières

Le projet de recherche vise à améliorer le taux de réussite des transformations numériques dans les PME canadiennes, en mettant l’accent sur les entreprises du Québec.
Le besoin d’adopter l’industrie 4.0 pour améliorer l’efficacité et la compétitivité des PME a conduit à un engouement croissant pour cette approche. Malgré les outils disponibles, le taux de réussite des projets numériques reste faible. Deux réactions communes des PME face à la transformation numérique incluent l’attente avant de s’engager et la sur-personnalisation de leur transition, entraînant des investissements considérables.
Le projet se concentre à guider les PME dans leur préparation à la transformation numérique. Il propose une approche semi-personnalisée en identifiant des profils d’entreprises similaires et en déterminant les combinaisons de facteurs favorisant le succès de chaque profil. Le projet vise à combler les lacunes dans les outils d’accompagnement pour les transformations numériques, encourageant ainsi le développement de l’Industrie 4.0 dans les PME.

L’accès à la nationalité au Canada, en France et en Allemagne

Le projet à trait à la réalisation d’une étude comparative des droits canadien, français et allemand au sujet de l’accès à la nationalité. Elle examinera les conditions matérielles d’accès à la nationalité et les questions d’ordre formel tels que les procédures de naturalisation, le pouvoir d’appréciation de l’administration dans l’octroi de la nationalisation et les possibilités de retrait de l’acte de naturalisation. Finalement, elle s’intéressera aux conséquences de la naturalisation, aussi bien d’ordre juridique que dans la pratique. Dans ce cadre, feront l’objet d’une comparaison l’attractivité des droits examinés pour l’attraction de la main d’œuvre qualifiée ce qui est l’un des enjeux majeurs actuels dans les trois pays examinés, ainsi que la gestion des flux migratoires qui en est sans doute un autre.

Processus d’implantation d’AToM

Nous effectuerons l’implantation d’une plateforme de description archivistique en ligne nommée AToM . Ce projet enclenchera une transition qui obligera l’organisme à développer de nouvelles procédures de traitement de l’information, allant de l’acquisition de documents jusqu’à leur diffusion. Le projet nous offrira l’occasion d’élaborer et d’instaurer des stratégies visant à traiter l’information de manière conforme aux normes archivistiques et adaptée aux besoins de l’organisme. Lorsque la plateforme sera opérationnelle, l’organisme prévoit acquérir des archives nées numériques de différents formats. Nous aurons ainsi la possibilité de réfléchir à des enjeux encore peu explorés dans le milieu archivistique québécois et de relever de nouveaux défis liés à l’émergence de nouvelles technologies.

Effect of influenza vaccination with high-doseantigen on geriatric population

Vaccination is an important preventive measure against influenza infection during both seasonal epidemics and pandemic outbreaks. This research aims to evaluate the health benefits and costs associated with a new vaccine developed by Sanofi for seasonal influenza. This vaccine provides better efficacy and higher protection for individuals over 65 years of age. The vaccine is expected to reduce severe illness and hospitalization in this age group. We apply an important methodology, namely mathematical and computational techniques, to determine the effectiveness and costsbenefits of vaccination. The results will be used to determine whether the use of this vaccine for nursing homes would be beneficial, given that the costs of producing this new vaccine is higher than the standard seasonal vaccines. The outcomes will inform vaccination policies and improve practices for reducing the burden of influenza infection in the geriatric population.

Acceleration of Variational Quantum Eigensovler via Qubit Efficient encoding results

The electronic structure problem is the key for material and drug designs. Solving it accurately using quantum mechanical methods on regular classical computers leads to algorithms whose execution time grows exponentially with the system size (e.g., number of electrons and nuclei in molecules). Emerging technology of quantum computing recently provided a new hope to solve this problem efficiently. Yet, the new quantum hardware requires new algorithms. Currently, one of the most practical algorithmic frameworks for solving the electronic structure problem on a quantum computer: is the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE). Two main challenges in the VQE framework are 1) quantum state preparation and 2) quantum measurement. In this proposal, we will address the first problem because it creates a computational bottleneck for VQE use in industrial applications related to developing better pharmaceutical compounds and catalysts.
