: Low-code development platforms were introduced as a solution to the dilemma of the gap between the high demand for applications and the low number of developers available to meet this demand. The low-code development platforms help the developers to build fast, efficient, and scalable applications with a minimal need for coding, which introduced the concept of citizen developers in the field of application development. This study explores the factors that attract the developers and programmers to utilize LCDP and discusses some of the problems and challenges that prevent other programmers and developers from using it. An online survey was conducted in Saudi Arabia among 49 respondents of professional developers from different departments of Information Technology in several kinds of businesses as well as students from the Computing and Information Technology faculties to understand the developers’ motivations to adopt low-code development platforms. A total of 19 respondents were using LCDP, while the other 30 were not. The paper also highlights the reasons why some developers are not interested in moving toward low-code and commit to the traditional programming approach. The results of this study explain the factors and advantages that prompt developers to use LCDP and identifies the concerns that prevent them from using it. Reducing development time is considered as an advantage by the majority of the sample that used LCDP. Additionally, the Minimum coding needed reduces the development time and make the application development much easier. On the other hand, some of the reasons for not using LCDP by the developers were the low level of scalability in these platforms, and a lack of knowledge about these platforms and how to deal with them.

: In the era of the Internet of Things (IoT), the number of IoT devices that can gather and monitor data is increasing continuously. However, this growth presents difficulties for digital investigators when IoT devices are employed in crime scenes. In this study, we first present an IoT forensics taxonomy and focus on its challenges and limitations. Then, we discuss the differences between traditional digital forensics and IoT forensics. Next, we review two proposed models for IoT forensic investigation. Despite the increasing convenience of IoT for humans, it raises serious protection and privacy concerns. It also poses major challenges for investigators when they discover crime scenes in IoT apps. Based on the two proposed models discussed in this study, we conclude that every model in the field of IoT forensic investigation works in a different way and has some gaps. In addition, no specific standards and methods exist for IoT forensic investigation .
