“…In addition, a social factor may have contributed to the rapid dissemination of these psychotherapy brands: the emergence of communication and information technologies. Specifically, the Internet became public and free in 1993 (39), Google was launched in 1998 (40), and social media emerged in the 2000s (e.g., Facebook was launched in 2004) (41).…”

Bibliometric analyses are commonly used to document publication trends over time; however, this methodology has not been used to investigate possible trends concerning publishing about psychotherapy brands. In this study, the authors sought to identify the publication trends of peer-reviewed articles about 30 psychotherapy brands. Methods: Analyses were focused on the past 50 years and on each decade from 1970 to 2019. All searches were performed between October 2018 and January 2019 on the EbscoHost platform. Two databases were selected for the searches: PsycINFO and PubMed. Results: In the 28,594 articles reviewed, most published articles concerned cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and five brands accounted for almost 78% of all publications: CBT, psychoanalysis, family systems therapy, behavioral therapy, and cognitive therapy. Three trends were identified across decades: five therapies consistently yielded the largest number of publications, the number of publications focused on therapies with less research support declined from the 1970s to the 1990s, and publications about therapies with more of a research basis increased in the 1990s through the 2010s. Publications on meditation and mindfulness presented the most salient growth area for all psychotherapies across the 5 decades. A few psychotherapy brands have dominated the publishing realm during the past 50 years and across each decade. Conclusions: Possible explanations for these publication trends were considered, including the emergence of the evidence-based therapy movement and various sociohistorical changes. Potential psychotherapy publications trends in the future are discussed.

“…It was developed in the 1980s and could only be used with existing devices with physical connections via wires. The original purpose of this technology was to exchange military related information efficiently between devices [2]. Due to the wired-only nature of the Internet at the time, it was considerably harder to gain access to the network as a malicious individual would have to have physical access to the devices in order to do anything with it.…”

In this modern day and age, wireless networks are everywhere. It is not a far stretch to say that it is downright crucial due to its ability to keep people connected and updated everywhere from universities and workplaces down to our personal homes. Though the benefits of wireless networks are undeniable, it also brings a new host of security concerns due to the amount of sensitive data being transmitted through these networks. A simple attack such as packet sniffing is enough to “sniff” out just enough data to cripple even giant corporate bodies if left unchecked. The aim of this research paper is to dissect and discuss the security and privacy issues of wireless networks that surround us. An interesting finding would be that wireless networks are heavily susceptible to both malicious attacks such as denial of service attacks and passive attacks like eavesdropping. It was also noted that information is more easily obtainable through wireless networks as compared to wired networks due to the ability to gleam information from long distances without having to be physically present on site. A literature review and a survey were conducted to learn about the opinions of casual users of wireless networks. The information gathered suggests that while there are many who care about privacy, they still lack the necessary knowledge to protect said privacy. These users carelessly connect to public wireless networks wherever it is available without proper precaution and care. Appropriate relevant solutions are presented based on literature study to overcome insecure wireless network usage practices in order to avoid active and passive attacks.

“…Internet, which was started in 1989 [1], now has 1.2 million terabyte data from Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Facebook [2]. It is estimated that the internet contains over four and a half billion websites on the surface web, the deep web, which we know very little about, is at least four hundred times bigger than the surface web [3].…”

Twenty first century has witnessed emergence of some ground breaking information technologies that have revolutionised our way of life. The revolution began late in 20th century with the arrival of internet in 1995, which has given rise to methods, tools and gadgets having astonishing applications in all academic disciplines and business sectors. In this article we shall provide a design of a 'spider robot' which may be used for efficient cleaning of deadly viruses. In addition, we shall examine some of the emerging technologies which are causing remarkable breakthroughs and improvements which were inconceivable earlier. In particular we shall look at the technologies and tools associated with the Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Sensor Networks and Social Media. We shall analyse capabilities and business value of these technologies and tools. As we recognise, most technologies, after completing their commercial journey, are utilised by the business world in physical as well as in the virtual marketing environments. We shall also look at the social impact of some of these technologies and tools.
