Abstract: The Metaverse is a persistent, 3D network of virtual spaces and the culmination of interaction technologies. This systematic review synthesizes its architecture and critically assesses inherent governance deficits. While enabled by XR, AI, and Blockchain, existing architectural models lack dedicated layers for governance and interoperability. Sustained user adoption is contingent on trust and privacy protection. The emerging neurosociological paradigm, utilizing implicit interbrain synchrony, introduces severe ethical risks to cognitive liberty. This demands urgent regulatory focus and the establishment of Neurorights legislation. This paper proposes a socio-technical architectural model and a roadmap for preemptive neuro-adaptive governance.

Abstract: Digital Security system for examination materials is a system designed to prevent unauthorized access to exam papers. This system generates a unique password that is valid only for a single use and for a limited period of time. The system is designed to provide secure access to exam papers to only authorized personnel, such as teachers and invigilators. Digital Security system for examination materials consists of two main components: the server and the client. The server generates and manages the OTPs, while the client is responsible for receiving and verifying the OTPs.When a teacher or invigilator needs to access an exam paper, they must first authenticate themselves using their username and password. Once authenticated, the server generates an OTP and sends it to the client device of the teacher or invigilator. The teacher or invigilator can then use the OTP to access the exam paper. The OTP is only valid for a limited period of time, typically a few minutes, and can only be used once. This means that even if the OTP is intercepted by an unauthorized user, they will not be able to use it to access the exam paper as it will have already expired. The system also logs all access attempts, including successful and unsuccessful attempts. This allows administrators to monitor and track any unauthorized access attempts and take appropriate action if necessary. Overall, an OTP based electronic protection system for exam paper leakage is an effective way to prevent unauthorized access to exam papers and maintain the integrity of the examination process. It provides a secure and reliable way to protect exam papers from leakage and ensures that only authorized personnel have access to them.

Abstract: Forested wetlands are among the most biodiverse and ecologically significant ecosystems on Earth, providing essential services such as carbon sequestration, water filtration, flood regulation, and habitat conservation. However, these ecosystems have faced widespread degradation due to deforestation, urban expansion, agricultural drainage, and climate change-induced hydrological alterations. The restoration of forested wetlands has become a global priority, requiring an interdisciplinary approach that integrates ecological principles, hydrological engineering, policy implementation, and community engagement. This chapter explores the methodologies, challenges, and future perspectives in the restoration of forested wetlands. Hydrological restoration, including rewetting drained wetlands, reestablishing floodplain connectivity, and removing artificial barriers, plays a fundamental role in restoring wetland functionality. Additionally, native vegetation reintroduction, soil rehabilitation, and biodiversity conservation are key ecological strategies to accelerate natural regeneration. Advanced technologies such as remote sensing, machine learning, and environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis have significantly improved the accuracy of wetland assessment and monitoring, ensuring more effective and adaptive restoration strategies. Despite scientific advancements, several challenges persist, including conflicting land-use priorities, policy gaps, insufficient funding, and the long-term ecological uncertainties of restoration projects. The success of wetland restoration depends on integrated governance, strong environmental legislation, and the active involvement of local and Indigenous communities in conservation efforts. Furthermore, emerging mechanisms such as blue carbon markets and nature-based climate solutions offer financial incentives for large-scale wetland restoration, promoting economic and environmental sustainability. Looking ahead, the future of forested wetland restoration lies in the synergistic application of climate-adaptive strategies, data-driven restoration models, and transboundary conservation policies. A comprehensive and collaborative approach is essential to mitigate the impacts of climate change, reverse wetland degradation, and enhance ecological resilience. By prioritizing science-based restoration methodologies and sustainable policy frameworks, we can ensure that forested wetlands continue to provide their critical ecosystem functions for future generations.

Abstract: Occupational stress is increasingly recognized as one of the most pressing challenges faced by employees in the Information Technology (IT) sector. The nature of IT work— characterized by long working hours, strict deadlines, high performance expectations, and the constant demand to acquire new technical skills—places employees under persistent psychological and physical strain. Stress of this kind not only hampers individual wellbeing but also adversely affects organizational outcomes such as productivity, employee morale, and staff retention. The present study therefore aims to measure the levels of occupational stress among IT professionals and to examine the key factors contributing to it, including workload, organizational support, break schedules, and work–life balance. A structured questionnaire was distributed to a sample of 200 IT employees, and the responses were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential techniques to establish patterns and correlations. The findings reveal that high workload, inadequate managerial or organizational support, and limited opportunities for rest or relaxation breaks are strongly correlated with elevated stress levels. Younger employees and those with fewer years of experience were found to be more vulnerable to stress, largely due to adjustment challenges and skill-upgrade pressures. The study suggests that organizations should adopt proactive measures such as structured stress-management programs, balanced workload distribution, and fostering supportive work environments to safeguard employee well-being and ensure long-term organizational sustainability.

Abstract: Despite the rapid growth of the cloud kitchen industry in recent years, many businesses continue to face challenges in ensuring consistent customer satisfaction. As customer experience in this model depends entirely on delivery performance, the efficiency of delivery operations has become a critical determinant of success. This study investigates the impact of delivery efficiency on customer satisfaction in cloud kitchens, examining dimensions such as delivery time, order accuracy, food quality, delivery personnel behaviour, app/platform reliability, and cost of delivery. The literature review strongly supports the role of these variables in shaping consumer perceptions and loyalty. A conceptual framework linking delivery efficiency and customer satisfaction is developed from a comprehensive review of prior research, with hypotheses designed to empirically assess these relationships within the Bengaluru market context. Existing studies have not developed a holistic model of customer satisfaction that simultaneously incorporates both operational and technological factors influencing food delivery outcomes. This study advances the literature by proposing an integrated conceptual model that connects operational efficiency with customer experience, offering a structured understanding of how delivery performance affects satisfaction and retention. The framework provides meaningful insights for both scholars and practitioners, demonstrating how timely service, accuracy, and platform reliability collectively enhance the perceived value of cloud kitchen services. It also holds practical significance for managers seeking strategies to improve delivery reliability, optimize resources, and strengthen customer relationships in a highly competitive digital food ecosystem. Overall, this research aims to provide new perspectives on how operational, technological, and human factors jointly drive satisfaction in the food delivery. industry. It emphasizes the importance of aligning efficiency with service quality to sustain long-term competitiveness. The findings can help cloud kitchen operators design delivery systems that reduce operational lapses, improve reliability, and build stronger customer trust and loyalty.

Abstract: The growing demand for urban flyovers has intensified the need to evaluate their economic and environmental sustainability. This paper presents a comprehensive sustainability assessment of a reinforced concrete (RCC) flyover using Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) and Carbon Footprint Analysis (CFA). The study covers all major life-cycle phases— construction, operation, maintenance, and end-of-life—using a cradle-to-grave approach. Material quantities were obtained from STAAD.Pro modeling, while emission factors were derived from the Indian Life Cycle Inventory Database. The results indicate that cement and steel contribute more than 70% of total CO₂ emissions, while maintenance activities account for 25–30% of life-cycle costs. Incorporating 30% Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) replacement in concrete reduced total emissions by 22% and costs by 11%. The proposed framework offers a quantitative basis for integrating sustainability considerations into future flyover design and construction.
