IoT Intrusion Detection Taxonomy
The taxonomy includes (1) IoT security attacks, (2) IoT architecture layers, (3) intrusion-detection systems for IoT, (3) DL techniques used in the IoT IDSs, (4) common datasets used in the evaluation of the DL systems, and (5) their classification strategies. The different areas included in the taxonomy are in various ways interconnected as root causes of IoT security vulnerabilities in IoT and/or solutions to counter such causes.

Preventing Transmission of Respiratory Infectious Diseases
With the growing concern about the spread of new respiratory infectious diseases, several studies involving the application of technology in the prevention of these diseases have been carried out. Among these studies, it is worth highlighting the importance of those focused on the primary forms of prevention, such as social distancing, mask usage, quarantine, among others. This importance arises because, from the emergence of a new disease to the production of immunizers, preventive actions must be taken to reduce contamination and fatalities rates.

Mars Rover Mastcam Images
The Curiosity rover has landed on Mars since 2012. One of the instruments onboard the rover is a pair of multispectral cameras known as Mastcams, which act as eyes of the rover.

Computational Thinking
Computational Thinking (CT) has been widely regarded as an essential ability to solve problems by applying basic knowledge of computer science in technological societies. Initially, CT was defined as using the fundamental concepts of computer science to solve problems, design systems, and understand human behaviors.

Battery Modelling Techniques
The battery modelling (BM) problem is a constrained, multi-dimensional, mixed variable, non-convex, non-linear optimisation problem. Many bio-inspired techniques have been successfully employed to estimate the battery parameters. When bio-inspired algorithms are implemented for COM to extract parameters in real time, then they are called grey box models.

Disordered Proteins and Dynamic Interactions
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) or regions (IDRs), compared to the well-structural proteins, do not have stable tertiary structures under physiological conditions, and even remain dynamic in specific complexes and functional assemblies. It is now recognized that they are highly prevalent and play important roles in biology and human diseases due to the presence of many representative conformational states and potential dynamic interactions, which requires computer simulations for describing disordered protein ensembles and dynamic interactions involved in biological functions, diseases, and therapeutics.

Reliable Internet of Things
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a vital component of many future industries. By intelligent integration of sensors, wireless communications, computing techniques, and data analytics, IoT can increase productivity and efficiency of industries. Reliability of data transmission is key to realize several applications offered by IoT.

COVID Mortality Prediction
The considerations in this review may help to develop further studies to predict mortality in COVID patients, including both adulthood and childhood, although children and young people remain at low risk of COVID mortality. Moreover, suggestions collected in this study could also be useful to predict prognoses other than mortality (e.g., intubation and length of hospital stay).

Adversarial Attacks on Medical Imaging
One of the most important challenges in the computer vision (CV) area is Medical Image Analysis in which DL models process medical images—such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray, computed tomography (CT), etc.—using convolutional neural networks (CNN) for diagnosis or detection of several diseases. The proper function of these models can significantly upgrade the health systems. However, recent studies have shown that CNN models are vulnerable under adversarial attacks with imperceptible perturbations.

IoT Serverless Computing at the Edge
Serverless computing is a new concept allowing developers to focus on the core functionality of their code, while abstracting away the underlying infrastructure. Even though there are existing commercial serverless cloud providers and open-source solutions, dealing with the explosive growth of new Internet of Things (IoT) devices requires more efficient bandwidth utilization, reduced latency, and data preprocessing closer to the source, thus reducing the overall data volume and meeting privacy regulations. One way of achieving this is to move serverless computing to the network edge.
