To ascertain the effect of gender, age, and religiosity on death anxiety, 132 participants were interviewed using Templer Death Anxiety Scale and Collett-Lester Fear of Death Scale (CLS). Women, older participants, and less religious participants were found to be more scared of their impending death. Gender effect was more pronounced, however, on the CLS. Women and less religious people reported to experience greater anxiety than their respective counterparts about different dimensions of death, for example, the shortness of life, total isolation of death, fear of not being, and disintegration of body after dying. The findings of the current work indicate that the general predictors of death anxiety, gender, age, and religiosity reported in Western, predominantly Christian samples also hold in an Eastern, Muslim sample.

The internet of medical things (IoMT) is playing a substantial role in improving the health and providing medical facilities to people around the globe. With the exponential growth, IoMT is having a huge influence in our everyday life style. Instead of going to the hospital, patient clinical related data is remotely observed and processed in a real time data system and then is transferred to the third party for future use such as the cloud. IoMT is intensive data domain with a continuous growing rate which means that we must secure a large amount of sensitive data without being tampered. Blockchain is a temper proved digital ledger which provides us peer-to-peer communication. Blockchain enables communication between non-trusting members without any intermediary. In this paper we first discuss the technology behind Blockchain then propose IoMT based security architecture employing Blockchain to ensure the security of data transmission between connected nodes.

By using the contemporary theory of inequalities, this study is devoted to proposing a number of refinements inequalities for the Hermite-Hadamard’s type inequality and conclude explicit bounds for two new definitions of ( p 1 p 2 , q 1 q 2 ) -differentiable function and ( p 1 p 2 , q 1 q 2 ) -integral for two variables mappings over finite rectangles by using pre-invex set. We have derived a new auxiliary result for ( p 1 p 2 , q 1 q 2 ) -integral. Meanwhile, by using the symmetry of an auxiliary result, it is shown that novel variants of the the Hermite-Hadamard type for ( p 1 p 2 , q 1 q 2 ) -differentiable utilizing new definitions of generalized higher-order strongly pre-invex and quasi-pre-invex mappings. It is to be acknowledged that this research study would develop new possibilities in pre-invex theory, quantum mechanics and special relativity frameworks of varying nature for thorough investigation.

In this article, we construct the most powerful family of simultaneous iterative method with global convergence behavior among all the existing methods in literature for finding all roots of non-linear equations. Convergence analysis proved that the order of convergence of the family of derivative free simultaneous iterative method is nine. Our main aim is to check out the most regularly used simultaneous iterative methods for finding all roots of non-linear equations by studying their dynamical planes, numerical experiments and CPU time-methodology. Dynamical planes of iterative methods are drawn by using MATLAB for the comparison of global convergence properties of simultaneous iterative methods. Convergence behavior of the higher order simultaneous iterative methods are also illustrated by residual graph obtained from some numerical test examples. Numerical test examples, dynamical behavior and computational efficiency are provided to present the performance and dominant efficiency of the newly constructed derivative free family of simultaneous iterative method over existing higher order simultaneous methods in literature.
