Flash memory boot block architecture for safe firmware updates [PDF]

, 1995
The most significant risk of updating embedded system code is the possible loss of system firmware during the update process. If the firmware is lost, the system will cease to operate, which can be very costly to the end user.

Base Semantics—A Novel Approach for Minimizing Malware Detection Rules

SECURITY AND PRIVACY, Volume 9, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid evolution of malware variants has increasingly undermined traditional signature‐based detection techniques, which are easily evaded through obfuscation and polymorphism that preserve malicious functionality. This challenge is particularly acute in Internet of Things (IoT) environments, where device heterogeneity, resource constraints,

Assessment of a Model‐Based Approach to Achieve Authorization to Operate

Systems Engineering, Volume 29, Issue 6, Page 1059-1075, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Accreditation of United States Government (USG) Information Systems (IS) is required to assure their function and security before delivery to the operational environment. However, in many cases, the baseline document‐based accreditation processes are sources of cost and schedule overruns.

Smoke signals: Measuring wildlife smoke exposure with animal‐borne and stationary sensors

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 3109-3117, November 2026.
Abstract Wildfires are becoming larger, more frequent and more severe, producing smoke plumes that degrade air quality hundreds of kilometres away and for days to weeks after an active fire. Despite public health and safety concerns regarding wildfire smoke, we know little about how free‐ranging wildlife experience or respond to these exposures.

Instrumental Artefacts Can Reverse Apparent Lightning–Climate Trends

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Lightning is an Essential Climate Variable, yet long‐term detection records may be compromised by changes in detection technology. Using more than three decades of Austrian lightning observations (1992–2024), we show that instrumental artefacts can reverse the apparent sign of lightning–climate trends.
