“…Indeed, autistic children's learning processes are hampered from early childhood due to a diminished inclination to watch and copy others, as well as trouble interpreting others' words and activities [33]. Technology and gaming, such as the creation of an IoT-based gaming platform, can be beneficial [23]. The platform is made up of three games and comprises of a physical device and a mobile application.…”

Purpose (RFID) is a technology that uses radio waves for data collection and transfer, so data is captured efficiently, automatically and in real time without human intervention. This technology, alone or in addition to other technologies has been considered as a possible solution to reduce problems that endanger public health or to improve its management. This scoping review aims to provide readers with an up-to-date picture of the use of this technology in health care settings. Methods This scoping review examines the state of RFID technology in the healthcare area for the period 2017-2022, specifically addressing RFID versatility and investigating how this technology can contribute to radically change the management of public health. The guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) have been followed. Literature reviews or surveys were excluded. Only articles describing technologies implemented on a real environment or on prototypes were included. Results The search returned 366 results. After screening, based on title and abstract, 58 articles were considered suitable for this work. 11 articles were reviewed because they met the qualifying requirements. The study of the selected articles highlighted six matters that can be profitably impacted by this technology Conclusion The selected papers show that this technology can improve patient safety by reducing medical errors, that can occur within operating rooms. It can also be the solution to overcome the problem of the black market in counterfeiting drugs, or as a prevention tool. Further research is needed, especially on data management, security, and privacy, given the sensitive nature of medical information. Graphical Abstract

“…Customisation is a key element for the successful user experience for children with autism because they have very different personal preferences and needs [9]. Customisation enables users to adapt documents (font typeface, font size, line spacing, colours) to their preferences [17]. It also helps children with autism to match their own reading and comprehension abilities.…”

Autism spectrum disorder is a condition related to brain development that impacts how a person perceives and socialises with others, causing problems in social interaction and communication. The disorder also includes limited and repetitive patterns of behavior. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) develop at a different rate and don't necessarily develop skills in the same order as typically developing children. Nowadays, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are having difficulties in gaining religious skills. This is due to the lack of schools that provide special religious education for disabled children. Many technologies have been developed to help children with autism for education. Mobile applications have extensively been used to enhance their daily learning. Researchers are extremely trailing their applications but not many applications are able to meet the requirements and needs of children with autism, especially in the religious context. The lack of religious mobile application guidelines is crucial as a reference for researchers. This paper aims to propose a guideline to design a mobile application for children with autism in religious context. A systematic review of previous literature on mobile application guidelines for autism and religious mobile application guidelines was conducted. This study resulted in two key findings: (1) elements of multimedia consist of text, images and sounds (2) features of application consist of interface, navigation, customisation and interaction. The proposed guidelines are potentially to be used by researchers who are interested in designing religious mobile applications for children with autism.

The fact has been established by [20] one out of every 146 newborns in UAE is affected with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and measuring the attention span using what method is difficult. It has been emphasized by [21] Children with ASD have a shorter attention span; hence the purpose of this study is to increase the attention span of autistic children in Abu Dhabi by using Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS). PECS is a picture-based communication method for people with little or no communication abilities to communicate using pictures [23]. PECS is used in the classroom by teaching the children to make their requests by handing them an exchange card representing what they want. The goal of this study is to persuade parents and teachers of the use of PECS to improve the attention span of autistic students at the Abu Dhabi Autism Center. Three samples are used in this study. The children are used as the samples of the study. Three parents and three teachers are interviewed to find out how persuaded they are about the use of PECS in increasing the attention span of the children at the Abu Dhabi center. Nine participants are involved in this study. The location of the study is the Abu Dhabi center. The experimenter will be the observer in this study. This study shows how effective the use of PECS is in improving the attention span of autistic children at the Abu Dhabi Autism Center. As a result, PECS is effective in increasing the attention span of autistic children, and parents and teachers are convinced that using PECS at Abu Dhabi Autism Center will help autistic children increase their attention span.
