Currently, I am in the process of editing forthcoming volumes for publications entitled "Emotion and Information Processing: A Particle Approach" to be published by Springer Nature. I would like to take this opportunity to cordially invite you to submit your work for consideration in this publication.
We are looking forward to your chapter proposal submission by March 15, 2020 (Firm Deadline) for consideration in these volumes for publication. The Details of the Book as follows:
Emotion and Information Processing Meets Brain Science presents an overview of the exciting, truly multidisciplinary research by neuroscientists and systems engineers in the emerging field of cognitive systems, providing a cross-disciplinary examination of this cutting-edge area of scientific research. This is a great example of where research in very different disciplines touches to create a newly emerging area of research. The book illustrates some of the technical developments that could arise from our growing understanding of how living cognitive systems behave, and the ability to use that knowledge in the design of artificial systems. This unique book is of considerable interest to researchers and students in information science, neuroscience, psychology, engineering, and adjacent fields.
Dealing with emotions is probably the central focus of health care not only because of their psychological relevance but also because they have a crucial role in clinical decision-making. From a general point of view, some authors claim that a satisfactory decisional process is impossible without emotions. In fact, emotional and cognitive systems, even if distinct, are strictly interwoven and interdependent, and these interconnections drive an active and appropriate adaptation to the environment. Emotions are also giving-sense judgment processes. So, they convey an intrinsic cognitive value and are important in appraising the main problems of the patient and his (her) relatives.

The Sri Aurobindo Ashram did a door to door 1 time 3 meal distribution to 1500 inmates in 300 locations
To avoid waiting, pilots were sent à few minutes ahead informing food arrival. This could be replicated as model for intimation/non panic while distributing D to D essentials?
This was done to maintain social distancing norms. Usually inmates and visitors have their meals at the Common Dining Room or come to the dining room to collect full their tiffin carriers (https://twitter.com/AloPal/status/1242751086630293505?s=03)
