Forensics is a science that deals with using scientific principles in order to aid an investigation of a civil or criminal crime. It is a system of procedures that allow an investigator to use as much resources as possible in order to come up with a conclusion for an investigation. Since forensics is a very general term that encompasses an investigation process using scientific knowledge, one can separate a system of investigation based on how it is conducted. This chapter introduces of internet of things (IoT) forensics, IoT application in forensics field. Art-of-states for IoT forensics are provided. The issues for IoT forensics are identified. Also, we have introduced the proposed data classification in Iot forensics protocol. At the end of this chapter, we point out a brief summary and conclusion.

In recent communications to the Society, I have confined myself largely to the Theory of Fourier Series, partly because much seemed to me still to require doing in this subject, partly because I believed its thorough investigation to be the natural preparation for the study of other series of normal functions. It has, indeed, been known for some time that the behaviour of, for instance, series of Sturm-Liouville functions exactly corresponds to that of Fourier series. The introduction that I have recently made into Analysis of what I have called restricted Fourier series enables us to notably extend the range of such analogies. I propose in the present communication to illustrate this remark with reference to series of Legendre coefficients. Whereas Fourier series may be said to be “naturally unrestricted,” in virtue of the fact that the convergence of the integrated series to an integral necessarily involves the tendency towards zero of its own general term, so that the consideration of the more general type of series does not at once suggest itself, Legendre series may be said to come into being “restricted,” even when the coefficients are expressible in what may be called the Fourier form by means of integrals involving Legendre’s coefficients. In other words, such series correspond precisely to restricted Fourier series, instead of to ordinary Fourier series like the analogous series of Sturm-Liouville functions.

Archē, or ‘principle’, is an ancient Greek philosophical term. Building on earlier uses, Aristotle established it as a technical term with a number of related meanings, including ‘originating source’, ‘cause’, ‘principle of knowledge’ and ‘basic entity’. Accordingly, it acquired importance in metaphysics, epistemology and philosophy of science, and also in the particular sciences. According to Aristotle’s doctrine of scientific principles, all sciences and all scientific knowledge are founded on principles (archai) of a limited number of determinate kinds.

In order to feed a growing global population projected to increase to 9 billion by 2050, food production will need to increase from its current level. The bulk of this growth will need to come from smallholder farmers who rely on generational knowledge in their farming practices and who live in locations where weather patterns and seasons are becoming less predictable due to climate change. The expansion of internet-connected devices is increasing opportunities to apply digital tools and services on smallholder farms, including monitoring soil and plants in horticulture, water quality in aquaculture, and ambient environments in greenhouses. In combination with other food security efforts, internet of things (IoT)-enabled precision smallholder farming has the potential to improve livelihoods and accelerate low- and middle-income countries’ journey to self-reliance. Using a combination of interviews, surveys and site visits to gather information, this research presents a review of the current state of the IoT for on-farm measurement, cases of successful IoT implementation in low- and middle-income countries, challenges associated with implementing the IoT on smallholder farms, and recommendations for practitioners.

This essay is aimed at analyzing the existing relationships between oncological problems and sport in future primary education teachers. This relationship was validated and confirmed by realizing a factorial analysis using an ad hoc-created Likert scale. To come up to certain conclusions, a non-experimental, descriptive, explanatory and correlational investigation process was carried out. The instrument used to collect the data have been made through Likert scale, which was validated in contents and with an excellent Cronbach’s alpha (0.952). The validity of construct was made with factorial analysis exploratory (KMO (0.722), Bartlett (0.000), determinant (3.266E−23)). Three different samples have been taken from 900 students (years 2017–2018–2019), being 896 subjects for research. Those persons were students from the fourth year of primary education degree at University of Jaen. The Kruskal–Wallis test allows us to keep the null hypothesis and make the P of Pearson. As a conclusion, we emphasize that there is a relationship between oncological problems and sport and future primary teachers should be informed about this relationship, as well as the importance of cancer and bones tumors and their relationship with sport, the media used to train in oncological problems may be less important.

The world is changing and the science and technology are making progress. Internet of Things is raging like a storm, and cloud manufacture is an invisible net preventing all escape. Changing the world, when conditions are ripe, success will come, which calls forth the idea of cloud design. This paper discusses the concept and theory of cloud design, which is a design framework empowered by advanced technologies including cloud computing. Cloud design is a modern design concept and methodology, and is the future of modern industrial design. The science and technology foundation of cloud design includes design, cloud manufacturing, internet of things, cloud computing, computer aided industrial design (CAID) , engineering, aesthetics, psychology, ergonomics, ontology and philosophy. The service system of cloud design consists of service, operational platform and resource. Its key technologies concern resource deployment, service management, resource provider/user management, and security. This paper also outlines the procedure and preliminary conclusion of the application of cloud design, gives direction and lays foundation for the follow-up research and development. As cloud design is new, this paper tries motivate researchers to come forward and contribute in various ways.

This paper traces the course of the ongoing pandemic as it was reported in some of the established world media as well as in scientific journals. The author has been following the various sources since practically the begining of the pandemic in Europe and here will try to assess the role and the actual practice of scientists, politicians and other actors throughout the pandemic, from its begining in China at the close of 2019 till end of February 2021. The key questions addressed in this paper are: Why the events of the ongoing pandemic unfolded as they did, with so many misguided decisions by politicians (as well as experts at times), with so much misinformation and fake news and so many missed opportunities for decisive and life-changing action? What is the reason behind prolonged intervals of silence in the communication chain? And what cost the insufficient familiarity with science – its facts, methods or means of communication – in the time of global pandemic? The main thesis is that the insufficient level of scientific knowledge – and at times of basic scientific litteracy – as witnessed from the highest places of political power to the so called conspiracy theorists, costed us all too many lives lost and an unforseeable suffering to come. The responsibility is shared between virtually all actors and it must be given due consideration, in some cases even at the courts of justice, if we are to learn all the valuable lessons for the future of public health, world economy and, indeed, the survival of humanity.

Interaction between devices, systems, and services is provided in internet through a new concept: internet of everything (IoE). This new concept should present numerous opportunities for the creation of new devices and applications in the years that follow and can dramatically affect the day-to-day life of all of us. New possibilities of information access, transmission, analysis, and interaction are practically infinity. With so many benefits, it is expected to come with several challenges. System structure and architecture and information confidentiality, integrity, and availability are aspects that someone should keep in mind to design an IoE application. This chapter offers to the reader an overview of the evolution of devices connectivity until it reaches the IoE. Some IoE concepts and applications, together with some challenges, are presented.


Throughout this book, the authors have discussed the implications of the rise of artificial intelligence, Industry 4.0, the internet of things, and new business models that do not have any known precedents. While discussing the skills needed to survive in the modern economy, they have yet to address the issue of what will become of our jobs. Will our children dream of the same jobs we dreamed once before? Will they require the same studies we had to follow to reach our actual positions? Will our jobs still exist by the time we reach the pension, or will we need to reinvent everything that we know of? The authors do not have an answer to these questions; what they can do is only make educated guesses about what is about to come and be ready for it. In this last chapter, the authors see what experts think our future will look like and give their educated opinion in what to invest in our lifelong learning journey to be on top of this unprecedented disruption of the economy.
