Abstract The increasing interconnection of modern industrial control systems (ICSs) with the Internet has enhanced operational efficiency, but also made these systems more vulnerable to cyberattacks. This heightened exposure has driven a growing need for robust ICS security measures. Among the key defences, intrusion detection technology is critical in identifying threats to ICS networks. This paper provides an overview of the distinctive characteristics of ICS network security, highlighting standard attack methods. It then examines various intrusion detection methods, including those based on misuse detection, anomaly detection, machine learning, and specialised requirements. This paper concludes by exploring More >

Abstract The growing developments in 5G and 6G wireless communications have revolutionized communications technologies, providing faster speeds with reduced latency and improved connectivity to users. However, it raises significant security challenges, including impersonation threats, data manipulation, distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, and privacy breaches. Traditional security measures are inadequate due to the decentralized and dynamic nature of next-generation networks. This survey provides a comprehensive review of how Federated Learning (FL), Blockchain, and Digital Twin (DT) technologies can collectively enhance the security of 5G and 6G systems. Blockchain offers decentralized, immutable, and transparent mechanisms for securing More >

Abstract Shape-memory elastomers (SMEs) have emerged as promising smart-materials platforms for soft actuators and intelligent structures due to their programmable thermally-induced reversible shape transformations. However, four critical scientific and technological challenges impede their practical engineering implementation. First, the thermodynamic and molecular mechanisms governing their thermomechanical behavior remain incompletely elucidated. Second, achieving large reversible deformations requires retention of molecular orientation during thermal actuation cycles- a persistent challenge given their large strain recovery at the heating temperature. Third, while biological muscles achieve sub-second actuation, current SME systems exhibit response times spanning several seconds, necessitating at least one order More >

Abstract The Internet has been enhanced recently by blockchain and Internet of Things (IoT) networks. The Internet of Things is a network of various sensor-equipped devices. It gradually integrates the Internet, sensors, and cloud computing. Blockchain is based on encryption algorithms, which are shared database technologies on the Internet. Blockchain technology has grown significantly because of its features, such as flexibility, support for integration, anonymity, decentralization, and independent control. Computational nodes in the blockchain network are used to verify online transactions. However, this integration creates scalability, interoperability, and security challenges. Over the last decade, several advancements… More >

Abstract Cancer, a leading cause of global mortality, remains a significant challenge to increasing life expectancy worldwide. Forkhead Box R2 (FOXR2), identified as an oncogene within the FOX gene family, plays a crucial role in developing various endoderm-derived organs. Recent studies have elucidated FOXR2-related pathways and their involvement in both tumor and non-tumor diseases. Dysregulation of FOXR2 has been linked to numerous malignant tumors, spanning the brain, nervous system, thyroid, osteosarcoma, Hodgkin lymphoma, colorectal, liver, pancreatic, lung, breast, ovarian, prostate, female genital tract, endometrial, and uterine cancers. Despite extensive research on FOXR2 dysregulation, its practical applications More >

Abstract Cancer immunotherapy has emerged as a promising strategy for the treatment of cancer, with the tumor microenvironment (TME) playing a pivotal role in modulating the immune response. CD47, a cell surface protein, has been identified as a crucial regulator of the TME and a potential therapeutic target for cancer therapy. However, the precise functions and implications of CD47 in the TME during immunotherapy for cancer patients remain incompletely understood. This comprehensive review aims to provide an overview of CD47’s multifaced role in TME regulation and immune evasion, elucidating its impact on various types of immunotherapy… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Tim Berners-Lee developed the internet at CERN in early 1990 with fundamental technologies such as HTML, URL, and HTTP which became the foundation of the web. The contemporary web we use today has been much advanced over a period of time ever since the innovation of the World Wide Web was introduced. The static web was the first version of the web, which was the read-only web. Succeeding development in web technology is web 3.0 which is a distributed and decentralized web with emerging technologies. This article emphasizes the comparison of important details with the… More >
