    IoT-enabled technologies for controlling COVID-19 Spread: A scientometric analysis using CiteSpace
    (2023-07) Kumar, D; Sood, S; Rawat, K
    The COVID-19 outbreak has unleashed a cataclysmic impact on the daily existence of humanity, triggering a widespread upheaval in public health and wreaking havoc on the economies of affected nations. This lethal disease has emerged as a leading cause of substantial mortality and morbidity around the globe, and the emergence of new virus variants has confronted humanitarian society with formidable difficulties. In this tumultuous period, the Internet of Things (IoT) has played an indispensable role. IoT has offered various innovative solutions to curb the spread of the pandemic, providing a beacon of hope amidst the chaos. The current research delves into the literature on IoT-assisted COVID-19 research, utilizing a scientometric analysis to extensively examine the technological impact in the battle against the outbreak. It illuminates the multifaceted role of ICT in the ongoing pandemic by employing an array of empirical approaches such as publication patterns, citation structures, leading nations, literature co-citation network analysis, and knowledge mapping of scientific literature using the CiteSpace tool. Furthermore, the study uncovers the research frontiers, research hotspots, cluster analysis, and potential future directions in this knowledge domain, providing a visual narrative that inspires hope and a renewed commitment to our collective responsibility in the face of this global crisis.

    A visual review of artificial intelligence and Industry 4.0 in healthcare
    (2022-04) Sood, S; Rawat, K; Kumar, D
    The COVID-19 outbreak has led to a substantial loss of human life throughout the world and has a tremendous impact on healthcare services. Industry 4.0 technologies have established effective supply chain management towards the fulfillment of customized demands in the healthcare field. In addition, the internet of things, artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and 3D printing have been extensively used to combat the COVID-19 pandemic and assist in providing value added services in the healthcare sector. Henceforth, this paper presents a scientometric analysis on the literature of aforementioned Industry 4.0 technologies in the context of COVID-19. It provides extensive insights into co-citation and co-occurrence analysis of high cited publications, participating countries, influential authors, prolific journals, and keywords using the CiteSpace tool. The analyses reveal that China has produced the highest research outputs, although India is the most collaborative country in this field. The current research hotspots include supply chain, 4D printing, and social distancing technologies. Furthermore, it explores emerging trends, intellectual structure of publications, research frontiers, and potential research directions for further work in the Industry 4.0 assisted healthcare domain.
