Industrial Ecology, industrial waste valorisation and closed-loop supply chain
Information system based on Web 2.0 for the identification of industrial waste reuse opportunities
This project is a collaboration with and supported by the Centre de Transfert Technologique en Écologie Industrielle (CTTéi). The aim is to develop an information system platform for the sharing of industrial waste reuse opportunity in order to promote the crete of industrial synergies.

Supply chain simulation with remanufacturing
This project aims to analyze this impact of various types of demand profiles and EOMs’ technological competitive advantages on EOMs’ and independent remanufacturers’ profit. This project exploit agent-based simulation technology.
Agent-based simulation of industrial symbiosis
This project aims to create a simulation of an industrial symbiosis. The goal is develop a theoretical model of material flows exchanges and social interactions between companies in an industrial park in order to analyze the evolution and the creation of industrial symbiosis. This project is based on the Kalundborg industrial symbiosis in Denmark.
Health care industry
Agent-based simulation of patient personalized care pathways
This project is a collaboration with the Lady Davis Institute, and is supported by the FRQS, the Rossy Fondation and the Lady Davis Institute. The project aims at developing an agent-based simulation of patient care pathways in order to study the impacts of advanced screening processes and personalization of care pathways on patients’ quality of life and hospital resources utilization.

Optimization of vaccine distribution in the province of Québec
This project is a collaboration with the Québec Ministère de la santé et des services sociaux. The goal is to help the Ministère optimize how vaccines are distributed in the Québec population. A simulation approach is being used in order to evaluate several potential solution.
Sustainable freight transportation (Physical Internet)
Agent-based simulation of a Physical Internet (PI) transportation network
This project aims to analyze the performance of a simple implementation of the PI in which trailers are transported throughout a network of hubs designed to optimize routes according to real-time hub congestion. This project will investigate different business models and different technological implementation options.

Supply Chain Collaborative Planning
Collaborative planning and order forecasting in the aerospace industry
This project aimed to develop a collaborative planning process and information exchange mechanisms between an first-tier aerospace part supplier and its sub-contractor. This project is financed by the CEFRIO.
