Managing the Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging network paradigm connecting billions of wireless devices. Proper network resource management will play a critical role in reaping the benefits of this emerging technology for our communications future. But, first, fundamental approaches must provide solutions for intricacies such as imperfect wireless communications, complex network dynamics, complexity of distributed computation, and stringent application-specific Quality of Service requirements as society evolves its dependence on telecommunications.

Moving Towards Precision Medicine

How can we harness the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning to identify tailored treatments for patients with cancer? Dr. Amber Simpson, Canada Research Chair in Biomedical Computing and Informatics, seeks to transform how clinicians treat patients with cancer using a data-driven approach. By defining relevant biomarkers to guide targeted treatments, and ultimately improve human health, she will move the field from the “treat everyone to help a few” paradigm towards precision medicine.
