Abstract

Online technology' inclusion into medical education has transformed teaching strategies in recent years and offers fresh chances to improve learning environments and meet the changing needs of students and teachers. This study uses a thorough evaluation of the literature and empirical data to investigate, via online medical education, adoption, impact, and optimization tactics. The aim is to find important elements influencing their adoption, study the efficacy of online technologies in teaching medical topics, and suggest ways of best using them. Data was gathered from 120 people—including lecturers and students—across several departments of Rao University using a mixed-methods methodology. The results show notable good opinions on the usage of online learning technology; among medical teachers, Google Classroom is becoming the favored platform. Still, two main shortcomings were found to be technological problems and a lack of practical expertise. The findings lead to suggestions on how to make online medical education more effective: better access to materials, interactive learning settings, and addressing of communication restrictions among other things. All things considered, this study adds to the body of knowledge already in use by shedding light on the state of online medical education presently and by making doable suggestions for future expansion and application.

Abstract

Now, the technological environments rely on a large number of users and devices interconnected in such a way as to be able to share information and exchange resources. For such reasons, security becomes of prime importance inside these networks. Especially, encryption algorithms widely used in smart metering systems form the very backbone of ensuring security. It is unique according to every single parameter: the level of security achieved, speed, operational complexity, length, and type of key used. A comparison of performance and throughput for the most used encryption algorithms, such as AES-128, AES-192, RC4, Blowfish, and ECDSA, is presented here. Such devices, for instance, smart meters, usually represent very resource-constrained computational capability, memory, and data transfer. For these reasons, the experiments investigate performance impacts of using different encryption algorithms on a smart meter environment in a scaled setup. Experiments were run on a laptop device and then downscaled according to the limitation characteristics of the smart meter target device. As for the scaling, it has been performed concerning key factors: CPU of the smart meter, RAM, and cache memory. Execution times of the encryption and decryption processes were measured, as well as the throughput of messages for various file sizes. Quantitative key results obtained included: RC4 with a throughput of 25.37 Kbytes/sec, whereas AES-128 has 4.87 Kbytes/sec, while in ECDSA-256 the performance is much lower: its verification throughput amounts to 0.0023 Kbytes/sec. The results showed significant variations in performance, speed, and throughput between these algorithms. Even considering small smart devices, the encryption and decryption processes yielded efficient throughputs. These findings underscore the importance of choosing the right encryption algorithm for smart meters, balancing both security requirements and resource limitations to ensure optimal performance.

Abstract

The metaverse, the virtual world integrating augmented reality, virtual reality, and other digital technologies, poses tremendous opportunities and challenges regarding security, privacy, and governance. With digital worlds such as the metaverse beginning to take place, user-generated content and user interaction are proving to be more and more a daunting task. In this paper, the metaverse security challenge is discussed and some proposals and recommendations are formulated. This study used a mixed-methods approach and surveyed data from 85 students, lecturers, and technical professionals who were interested in information technology. Quantitative data were captured through structured questionnaires and surveys, and processed in SPSS, and qualitative data were elicited through thematic analysis. The results suggest strong support for the metaverse, yet raise concerns for technical limitations, privacy issues and environmental impacts. Technical problems like hardware requirements and system lag were discovered by 50% of the respondents to be significant barriers, 12% mentioned privacy and security concerns as barriers, and 7% reported other types of barriers such as access issues. Most respondents were concerned that the metaverse was not very safe but reported areas for improvement. The study advises stricter regulation, better legislation on data privacy, and a better reporting mechanism to combat online abuse. Therefore, the work adds to a new metaverse security literature and provides applied policy, governance, and space-building lessons. With the expansion and further development of the metaverse, future research will be required to deconstruct these dimensions more extensively.

Abstract

E-learning is an approach that delivers education using digital means, wherein students access classes and resources over web-enabled devices. The study examines the integration of e-learning within Afghanistan's higher education system through a subjective research study by reviewing available literature published between 2019 and 2024 and extracted from databases such as IEEE, Springer, Science Direct, Research Gate, and Scopus. The results highlight several infrastructure barriers considered critical, which include a lack of ICT skills among both teachers and students, unstable internet access, unstable power supply situations, and a dependence on the traditional model of teaching. In addition, socio-political instability and inconsistent policies have further acted as impediments to the mass-level acceptance of e-learning.  Despite these challenges, e-learning offers opportunities for flexibility, access to different resources, and the integration of innovative teaching techniques. Cloud-based tools have proven beneficial during interruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which helped in continuing education with minor interruptions. E-learning encourages independent learning and improves digital literacy, but at the same time, teachers face challenges in engaging students and supporting skill development. The disparity in internet access between the urban and rural areas aggravates the problem even further, whereby cities have more access as compared to the countryside. The study further notes that the present-day government strategies are limited in addressing e-learning, as they do not have a coherent policy framework and suffer from lack of infrastructural support. Investments in technology and teacher training are an urgent need to improve e-learning in Afghanistan.

Abstract

The integration with the Internet of Things (IoT) technology with health systems shows a strong potential to re¬invent at least the developed areas of Afghanistan. The study is focused on the perceptions, challenges and willingness of the stakeholders to identify the potential benefits, barriers and strategies to implement IoT-based Health monitoring systems. So, this study uses a mixed-method research approach. A cross-sectional web-based survey was conducted, with 150 possible participants (stakeholders), including healthcare professionals and computer scientists. The survey confirmed acquainting individuals with IoT, their perceived benefits of IoT, possible challenges and willingness of the participants to adopt IoT in the context mentioned above. Main data analyses included descriptive statistics, crosstabs and regression analysis results using the SPSS data processing software. The findings demonstrated that 73.33% of the respondents assumed IoT to improve health monitoring and about 80% showed willingness to adopt IoT. According to this study, the major challenges mentioned by respondents are lack of infrastructure, data security issues, and costs involved. It was identified that In the regression analysis (R²=0.82), benefit, familiarity, and awareness of IoT technology positively influenced willingness to adopt. Integration was supported by younger and better-educated people. As a result, we will consider gap closing the infrastructure, strengthening data security and raising awareness through direct educational campaigns as a priority area for ensuring the success of IoT adoption. The results of the study highlight aspects which may come handy for the policymakers and health care practitioners to facilitate its adoption in a cost-effective and culture-sensitive manner to address the health particularities of the developing nations.
