Emerging Trends in Information and Communication Technology (Volume - 2), edited by Dr. R. Arun Chakravarthy, presents seven forward-thinking chapters spanning facial recognition, network intrusion detection, blockchain in vehicular networks, soft computing in geotechnical engineering, and technology-integrated language instruction. The volume explores comparative studies of deep learning models like VGG, FaceNet, DeepFace, and AlexNet, network security through ensemble learning, blockchain-based secure key mechanisms in VANETs, and soft computing applications in civil infrastructure. Additional contributions focus on the integration of System Verilog environments for router design and the enhancement of Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) through digital tools. This interdisciplinary volume offers a rich blend of AI, communication protocols, security, and education technologies, making it a valuable reference for researchers, faculty, and professionals in computer science, engineering, and education technology domains.
