Welcome To Ord City
All refugees welcome in Australia! In 2023, Australia reversed its closed border policy and said to the world: ‘Welcome! You are free to come to Australia, but you must spend the first seven years in the Temporary Citizenship Zone around the Ord River.’ Seven years later, Ord City is a teeming Asian metropolis with 2.5 million people preparing for the First Wave – the first tranche of refugees gaining full citizenship – on Australia Day 2030. But mainstream Australia is passionately divided over Ord City, not least because of the risk of letting in terrorists, and dark political forces are bubbling to the surface. Agent Conan Tooley is sent up to Ord City to look into a routine gangl...

The Future of Energy Efficiency in Post-COVID-19 Era
The COVID-19 pandemic has led several governments to impose movement control, resulting in serious challenges towards the research, development and commercialization of sustainable energy generation and conversion technologies. As a result of the economic slowdown in many parts of the world, the poor are in distress. Experts believe that a fast recovery from the COVID-19 epidemic or any future disaster will need clean and sustainable energy. However, questions arise on what type of renewable energy technologies will ensure our resilience in the face of future disasters like COVID-19 that aids rebuilding economies and puts nations on track to meet global climate and sustainable development goals? Therefore, this Research Topic primarily aims at compiling recent progress on energy generation, conversion and resource utilization that would help resolve energy problems amidst and post Covid-19 pandemic.

Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Ubiquitous Information Management and Communication (IMCOM) 2019
Over past few years, technologies have experienced boundaries getting blurred and concept of convergence to gain prominence. Harnessing from this, two main tracks for information processing management and communication are held, covering both research and application works of information management, intelligent information processing, interaction management, networking/ telecommunications, and social interaction. This book creates unique opportunity for research convergence among truly diverse technology domains of computer science. Leveraging from this diversity of topics, researchers get to generate novel research ideas by seeking application of their research in a different technology dom...
Public Health, Governance, Green Environment and Economy
Sustainable economic growth is important due to its implications for the ecosystem, natural resources, and human development. Public health is also a key factor in developing a sustainable economy, and it is a national asset because of its impact on labor supply and productivity. Health conditions depend on various factors, such as environmental hazards, availability of public facilities, economic conditions, pandemics etc. Green energy has an association with health, as it guarantees a clean environment. Such measures are necessary to improve the public’s mental and physical health, leading to sustainable economic growth. Hence, green energy, governance, and health are the potential avenues to enhance public health, promoting sustainable economic growth.
