Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Component Integration Architecture for QPIC
987797
This proposed work forms part of the Quantum Photonic Integrated Circuits for Quantum Interconnects Small Teams, Round 2 project which aims to develop a chip-based platform where entangled photons can be generated and distributed
between nodes in a quantum network. Using nanowire-based quantum dots fully integrated on a chip manufactured in the silicon nitride material platform. In this collboration, specific circuits will be designed as required for the
implementation of quantum key distribution protocols for the Small Teams project, including BB84, MDI-QKD and E91/BBM92. These circuits will be fabricated on chip and their overall performance will be evaluated and compared
to other approaches (e.g. weak coherent pulses).

Market Opportunity/Technical feasibility for NetExperience Platform
983311
NetExperience is a provider of software solutions aimed at automating management of private and public Wi-Fi networks. NetExperience takes an innovative approach to networking by dissagregating the hardware components from the software layers.
To date, the focus of the software solution has been towards reducing human complexity in managing complex WI-FI networks.
This projects aims at scoping market opportunities and the technical feasibility to build a new monetization platform on top of the existing software infrastructure in order for Service Providers (SP) to leverage their investment in deploying large scale Wi-Fi networks. Several applications running on the new platform will provide specific monetization solutions to the SPs.

Optimization of regional truck hours for delivery services
983516
Truck-based delivery is a growing business service in Canada as the prevalence of e-commerce dramatically increases. This project aims to improve the efficiency and business capabilities associated with truck-based delivery systems. Currently, delivery companies operate on a first-come, first-served service basis, typically using manual scheduling methods. Because the demand and the associated deliveries are dynamic in nature, it is becoming increasingly challenging to accurately estimate vehicle resource requirements and to plan efficient delivery routes ahead of time. The objective of the Project is for the University of Calgary and the NRC to partner with industry partner Bison Transport to develop and implement AIbased methods and tools to help build an intelligent regional logistics network for truck-based delivery that satisfies service level goals using the minimum amount of delivery routes.
