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.

Germany BMBF Leading-Edge Cluster Project EASY - Embedded Artificial Intelligence for Production Systems

Agreement Number:

955912

Duration: from Sep 1, 2020 to Sep 30, 2023
Description:

Germany BMBF Leading-Edge Cluster project EASY led by Fraunhofer-Institut für Entwurfstechnik Mechatronik IEM

The present project aims to develop decentralized machine learning (ML) algorithms for embedded and edge devices. The use cases considered in this project are the intelligent setting of profile wrapping machines and the predictive maintenance of failure-critical components in conveying applications, such as, the slip of friction wheels and drive belts due to wear or damage to bearings and gearboxes. A key goal of this project is therefore the development and implementation of learning processes in distributed, embedded systems, taking into account resource constraints.
