Aircraft wing designers have drawn their inspiration from birds since the dawn of aviation. But engineers are still finding ways of improving design based on examples found in the ornithological world. In the world of unmanned air vehicles, one team…
As the semiconductors that power the chips and lasers responsible for computing information shrink down to the nano-scale, they produce higher levels of electrical resistance and capacitance that ultimately slow performance. In recent years a research team, led by University…
The ACM Special Interest Group on Computer Architecture (SIGARCH) has presented its 2010 Maurice Wilkes Award to Professor Andreas Moshovos (ECE) for his contributions to the development of memory-dependence prediction. This technique, used by high-performance microprocessors that execute memory-access operations, provides many…
U of T Engineering professors have been awarded four out of 31 new research grants offered through Canada’s Collaborative Health Research Projects (CHRP) program, an initiative of the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) and the Canadian…
Five members of the U of T Engineering community have been selected by the Ontario Society of Professional Engineers (OSPE) and Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO) to receive Ontario Professional Engineers Awards, out of a total of nine recipients province-wide. Stephen Armstrong,…
Congratulations to Professors Sanjeev Chandra (MIE), Tom Coyle (MSE), and Javad Mostaghimi (MIE) and Dr. Valerian (Larry) Pershin (MIE), of the Centre for Advanced Coating Technologies, who have been awarded the 2010 NSERC Brockhouse Canada Prize for Interdisciplinary Research in…
