Paradigm Shift and the State of the Art of LBS in the Advent of Smartphone

Background: Latest advances in information and health technologies enabled dentistry to follow the paradigm shift occurring in medicine – the transition to so called smart medicine. Consequently, the aim of this paper is to assess how ‘smart’ is smart dentistry as of the end of 2018. Methods: We analysed the state of the art in smart dentistry, performing bibliometric mapping on a corpus of smart dentistry papers found in the Scopus bibliographical database. Results: The search resulted in a corpus of 3451 papers, revealing that smart dentistry research is following the progress in smart medicine; however, there are some gaps in some specific areas like gamification and use of holistic smart dentistry systems. Conclusions: Smart dentistry is smart; however, it must become smarter.

Landslide Tsunami

Subaerial landslide-tsunamis (SLTs) are caused by mass movements such as landslides, rock falls or glacier calving. Research into SLTs is ongoing for many decades, however, the advancement in the physical understanding and reliability of hazard assessment methods is not reflecting the number of articles published per year. It appears that a paradigm shift in SLT research is required for a genuine advancement. This article critically reviews the state-of-the-art of SLT research, highlights current limitations and introduces potential candidates to perform this needed paradigm shift.

The Future

The articles in the special issue are reviewed within the context of current trends and the state of the art in prison classification systems. A paradigm shift is noted to be occurring within the field, wherein the medical model is being abandoned for a multipurpose model of classification. The purposes are understanding, prediction, management, and treatment. Each of these purposes is discussed with special emphasis on problems inherent in the prediction model when used in isolation. Implications of the paradigm shift are discussed in terms of the future of psychologists' roles within corrections.

Republic Of Turkey

Recent socio-political developments have rendered cultural studies of the Republic of Turkey an ever-widening field of study, as they lead apparently to a probable paradigm shift in a society that was once thought to be purely Western-oriented. The analysis of this transformation is before all else a cultural studies task. Accordingly, this paper has two aims: one, to make a a brief survey of cultural studies work that has been done so far in Turkey; and two, draw attention to the various problems encountered by the instruction and practice of cultural stud-ies in the country.

Molecular Skeleton

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.
