Meeting Challenges in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a progressive, multifactorial optic neurodegenerative disease that affects over 80 million patients worldwide. The disease's insidious onset, combined with our reliance on subjective diagnostic tools, hinders early detection and timely intervention. Current treatments, while beneficial, often fail to provide consistent intraocular pressure control, and management is further complicated by variability in disease progression, non-adherence to therapy, socioeconomic challenges, complications from surgical interventions, and new risk factors. This reprint contains 15 excellent chapters that focus on the remarkable developments in the field of glaucoma diagnosis and treatment, including the use of artificial intelligence, novel wearable devices, advancements in filtration and cataract surgeries, wound healing, and ocular surface disease management.

Undergraduate students in almost all disciplines experience curricula dominated by technical foundations, but lacking many of the "soft" topics that the students will need in order to be fully prepared to practice professionally after graduation. Professional Development and Career Planning: Guidance for STEM Careers provides the information that will enable readers to develop a more complete education and ready them for the workplace. It helps readers recognize the importance of topics such as mentoring, developing professional attitudes, communication skills, codes of conduct, ethics, becoming knowledgeable about various aspects of professional life, and more. Each chapter of the book provides the necessary definitions, hypothetical but relevant case studies, methods and practices that can be used to identify relevant professional weaknesses, and ways to overcome each of them. This book serves as an ideal reference for any undergraduate student in the STEM field. Helps readers recognize the importance of topics such as mentoring, developing important professional attitudes, and becoming knowledgeable about aspects of professional life that are not an integral part of the technical component of any curriculum. Identifies the attitudes, abilities, and skills that will be needed to optimally meet professional responsibilities. Provides information about the use of alternative methods of thinking to achieve success in problem-solving, with special emphasis on imaginative-based methods of thinking for multi-dimensional problems.
A Hybrid Cloud Approach for Secure and Authorized Data Deduplication
Cloud technology is widely used as it allows sharing and centralized storage of data, sharing of data, processing online access of computer services and resources on various types of devices. Deduplication helps to remove or prevent from having duplicate copies of same data. Though deduplication has benets it adds concerns related to privacy and security of users; as it can lead to insider and outsider attacks. Reducing the amount of data need to be transferred, stored, and managed becomes a crucial for cloud storage. On the other hand, as user data are stored and processed by outsourced cloud provider, encryption becomes a necessary before updating data into the cloud. However, the above two goals are great challenges faced these years achieving deduplication along with data security in cloud environment. A lot of information for authentication of information in cloud by lot particularly internet security protocols widely used in order to solve the above con ict. The presented approach allows a registered user to upload, download and update the data. It uses encryption facility while uploading the data to the cloud.

Cable and Electrical Fires
Cables, as the "arteries" and "nerves" of the national economy, are widely used in energy transmission, information transmission and various motor instruments. However, with the increasing demand for electricity and the energy infrastructure's inevitable aging, cable and electrical fires have become the main cause of fire-related accidents. Our Special Issue, named "Cable and Electrical Fires", compiles current research on cable and electrical fires, as well as present progress to the wider community and encourage further research in this area. Up to now, 11 high-quality articles have been included in this Special Issue. The articles included cover the progress of research on the fire characteristics of cables and wires; hazard and risk evaluation, especially the smoke toxicity hazard; and test standards in cable or electrical fires. We hope that the contributions published within this Special Issue will provide new insights in the field of cable and electrical fire safety. Although considerable research progress has been made on electrical and cable fire mitigation and control, much work remains to be conducted. Here are some promising research directions that may improve cable and electrical fire safety: 1) advanced materials for fire-resistant cables, including non-halogenated flame retardants and smart, self-healing materials; 2) predictive maintenance and monitoring technologies, such as using AI and machine learning to identify patterns indicative of potential fire hazards; and 3) fire safety standards for emerging technologies, including electric vehicles (EVs) and charging stations.
