The convergence of 5G and IoT enables fully connected, intelligent environments, but it faces challenges from the fragmentation of public/private 5G networks and the heterogeneity of IoT networks. We …
In agentic workflows, LLMs frequently process retrieved contexts that are legally protected from further training. However, auditors currently lack a reliable way to verify if a provider has violated …
Wastewater surveillance (WWS) has emerged as a valuable tool for public health surveillance, particularly since the COVID-19 pandemic. Its long-term utility is constrained, however, by fragmented data…
Climate change has intensified extreme weather and wildfire conditions globally. Canada experienced record-breaking wildfires in 2023 and 2025, burning millions of hectares and severely impacting the …
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems augment large language models with external knowledge, yet introduce a critical security vulnerability: RAG Knowledge Base Leakage, wherein adversarial pro…
Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on third-party API routers to dispatch tool-calling requests across multiple upstream providers. These routers operate as application-layer proxies …
Autonomous software agents on blockchains solve distributed-coordination problems by reading shared ledger state instead of exchanging direct messages. Liquidation keepers, arbitrage bots, and other a…
Smart Voice assistants (SVAs) are widely adopted by youth, yet privacy decision-making in these environments is often characterized by competing considerations rather than clear-cut preferences. While…
AI-powered malware increasingly exploits cloud-hosted generative-AI services and large language models (LLMs) as analysis engines for reconnaissance and code generation. Simultaneously, enterprise upl…
Multi-agent LLM systems are entering production -- processing documents, managing workflows, acting on behalf of users -- yet their resilience to prompt injection is still evaluated with a single bina…
This paper investigates how gender shapes privacy decision-making in youth smart voice assistant (SVA) ecosystems. Using survey data from 469 Canadian youths aged 16-24, we apply multigroup Partial Le…
Creative approaches to attract students to software engineering at an early age are emerging, yet their differential impact on gender remains unclear. This study investigates whether design thinking's…
The mobility of high-potential individuals, particularly graduates from elite academic institutions, serves as a critical driver of global innovation and economic development. Despite its importance, …
The growing demand for wireless connectivity, combined with limited spectrum resources, calls for more efficient spectrum management. Spectrum sharing is a promising approach; however, regulators need…
The ongoing shift of AI models from centralized cloud APIs to local AI agents on edge devices is enabling \textit{Client-Side Autonomous Agents (CSAAs)} -- persistent personal agents that can plan, ac…
Proving the NP-completeness of pencil-and-paper puzzles typically relies on reductions from combinatorial problems such as the satisfiability problem (SAT). Although the properties of these problems a…
Removing the CPU from the communication fast path is essential to efficient GPU-based ML and HPC application performance. However, existing GPU communication APIs either continue to rely on the CPU fo…
Smart voice assistants (SVAs) have become embedded in the daily lives of youth, introducing complex privacy challenges due to always-on listening, shared device usage, and opaque data practices. This …
Smart Voice Assistants (SVAs) are deeply embedded in the lives of youth, yet the mechanisms driving the privacy-protective behaviors among young users remain poorly understood. This study investigates…
This paper summarizes the research conducted for a malware detection project using the Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity's MalMemAnalysis-2022 dataset. The purpose of the project was to explore the…
