Mental health nursing researchers are fundamentally interested in the improved future of the mental healthcare of people with mental health conditions. Generally, their research investigates past and present phenomena, advances evidence, forecasts predictions, and proposes recommendations suitable for the preparation of the mental health nursing workforce to support people with mental health conditions in the future. During the COVID-19
With the proliferation of location-based services enabled by a large number of mobile devices and applications, the quantity of location data, such as trajectories collected by service providers, is gigantic. If these datasets could be published, then they would be valuable assets to various service providers to explore business opportunities, to study commuter behavior for better transport management, which in turn benefits the general public for day-today commuting. However, there are two major concerns that considerably limit the availability and the usage of these trajectory datasets. The first is the threat to individual privacy, as users' trajectories may be misused to discover sensitive information, such as home locations, their children's school locations, or social information like habits or relationships. The other concern is the ability to analyze the exabytes of location data in a timely manner. Although there have been trajectory anonymization approaches proposed in the past to mitigate privacy concerns. None of these prior works address the scalability issue, since it is a newly occurring problem brought by the significantly increasing adoption of location-based services. In this article, we conquer these two challenges by designing a novel parallel trajectory anonymization algorithm that achieves scalability, strong privacy protection, and high utility rate of the anonymized trajectory datasets. We have conducted extensive experiments using MapReduce and Spark on real maps with different topologies, and our results prove both effectiveness and efficiency when compared with the centralized approaches.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
