Évaluation des enjeux de cybersécurité pour les PME manufacturières de la région de Gaspésie

Le projet vise à réaliser une analyse approfondie des récents audits de cybersécurité menés par l’ERAC Gaspésie auprès d’une trentaine d’entreprises manufacturières de la région. L’objectif est de dresser un portrait clair de la situation actuelle en matière de cyber-risques et de mesures de protection dans ce secteur névralgique.
Les audits réalisés ont permis d’identifier plusieurs lacunes et vulnérabilités récurrentes chez les entreprises participantes, notamment :

– Failles de sécurité au niveau des réseaux et infrastructures
– Accès physiques et logiques non sécurisés aux systèmes critiques
– Gestion inadéquate des mots de passe et des accès
– Difficultés à se conformer aux exigences de la Loi 25 sur la sécurité des données
– Systèmes de production exposés aux cyber menaces (rançongiciels, virus, etc.)

Fireweed Food Co-op Marketing

Fireweed Food Co-op (FFC) is a non-profit multi-stakeholder co-operative based in Winnipeg, Manitoba that facilitates the connection between food producers and customers as a distributor. A continual challenge for growth in the co-op is to acquire more funding from government and organizational grants. Communicaiton and messaging are key components in acquiring that funding, however, demonstrating the value and benefits of FFC to the necessary stakeholders is complicated and requires resources to compile the information around sustainability and community development. This takes staff time and resources, both which are both in short supply at this grass-roots organization. A student will work with Fireweed to explore their “sustainability” brand. They will look through what data is available on sustainability at Fireweed- economic, ecological and social, do a social media audit, and compile a case for support for the co-operative enterprise.

Développement d’un magasin connecté :le cas de Premium Soccer

La transformation numérique des entreprises a connu une grande accélération ces derniers mois. Les bénéfices escomptés sont multiples, allant d’une augmentation de la productivité à un meilleur service client, en passant par une réduction des échanges papiers, ce qui est bénéfique pour l’environnement. La transformation numérique des entreprises, soit l’ajout de nouvelles technologies et/ou nouveaux systèmes d’informations, vient avec plusieurs défis : comment choisir les nouvelles technologies et systèmes d’informations ? quels sont mes besoins réels, et non mes besoins désirés ? comment mettre en place une bonne gestion du changement ? quelles sont les étapes à mettre en place pour réussir sa transformation numérique ? quels sont les coûts associés à la transformation numérique ? quel est mon degré de maturité numérique ? Toutes ces questions sont des questions essentielles à se poser.

Le projet de recherche concerne le cas de Premium Soccer, magasin spécialisé en soccer sur l’île de Montréal. Le magasin fait face à des enjeux chaque jour, que l’on retrouve dans d’autres magasins de commerce de détails : recherche d’item en magasin ou en arrière boutique, nécessité d’avoir un inventaire à jour, problématiques de vols, volonté des clients de pouvoir commander en ligne. Ces enjeux participent à un meilleur service client. Dans ce projet, Premium Soccer va essayer les technologies RFID pour résoudre ses problématiques, et ainsi améliorer l’expérience client.

Liam Kopp BSI Application

A unified dataset from disparate data sources is the ideal solution for many organizations and data teams alike. In this project, we propose to create an automated methodology using a combination of traditional SQL, graph and vector databases to combine and store data along with developing modeling techniques using machine and deep learning to automate the ingestion process. By combining multiple data storage solutions and automated data ingestion, we aim to reduce effort required to consolidate data, simplify data access and increase the variety data analysis at organizations using existing and new data sets.

Développement d’un cadre de référence pour les données en culture

Culturepédia est une fiducie d’utilité sociale dont la mission est de mettre en lumière les effets et les impacts sociaux des arts et de la culture en favorisant le partage et la mutualisation de données culturelles. Cette démarche collective permettra à l’ensemble des partenaires du milieu culturel de contribuer au développement de savoirs. Le centre d’innovation et de recherche appliquée Artenso est partenaire du projet depuis 2023 avec pour première mission de définir un cadre scientifique de référence pour assurer la réussite du projet. Dans ce contexte, une stagiaire de recherche sera embauchée afin d’identifier les forces et faiblesses des modèles de mutualisation des données en culture déjà existants, de proposer des solutions aux enjeux éthiques et défis méthodologiques de ce type de mutualisation des données et de définir des indicateurs d’effets et impacts sociaux des arts et de la culture.

Development of a fryer-based heat reclaimer for the restaurant industry

With the successful demonstration of HARVEST (formerly POWER) system with Pizza Pizza, this project focuses on adapting the HARVEST system for use with gas-fired fryers and demonstrate the proven waste heat recovery technology in a full-service restaurant (FSR) operated by Recipe Unlimited. Being a fuel-less, carbon-free water heating system that acts as a drop-in replacement for traditional water heaters, the novel heat reclaimer component will be adapted and tested at McMaster University’s gasfired fryer test facility and deployed for a six-month demonstration pilot at a Recipe Unlimited owned restaurant within the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. The project will be extending the HARVEST technology to more appliances to allow commercial restaurants to improve their operational efficiency and offset their growing utility costs and reduce their GHG emissions.

Design and validation of pathology-specific heart valve models

Heart valve disease affects a large number of Canadians, especially the elderly. Surgery for repairing heart valves is quite complex and requires a great deal of expertise. This project will focus on creating a library of silicone valve models representing different heart valve diseases using mathematical descriptions. With these silicone models, new cardiac surgeons will be able to better train and practice their surgical skills before operating on patients.
The intern trained in this project will develop mathematical descriptions for heart valves with diseases, and create and test a variety of silicone valve models using these mathematical descriptions. The intern will work under the supervision of an experienced cardiac surgeon.
The full heart valve library will be commercialized by a Canadian company that specializes in manufacturing medical and surgical training systems.

Okanagan WaterFutures

The Mitacs Elevate fellowship will support the WaterFutures Project, a collaboration aimed at creating a 3D game to educate the youth and the public on water sustainability using Syilx stewardship principles. Partnering with UBCO, OCCP, and the OBWB, the game will focus on teaching students and their communities about water conservation challenges and responses through experiential gaming. By simulating real-world water scenarios, the game intends to foster a sense of personal and collective responsibility towards water conservation.

Development of a Ground Model for a Low-Cost Flight Simulator

The proposed research project relates to the development of a flight simulator for the low-cost hobbyist market. The industrial partner has developed a widely-used simulator and is interested in making their simulator more independent of third-party software. This will be done by developing in-house sub-models for the flight physics that calculates the aircraft behaviour while taxiing on the ground, as well as takeoff and landing interactions. The intern will gain important and relevant experience in software development and aircraft mechanics.
