The Visualization Analysis of Internet of Things Research in China Based on the Bibliometrics Method

Abstract

Abstract: The Internet of Things (IoT) has become the central issue and research focus of the global academic community and industry. Because of the lack of research in the field of IoT and in order to understand the development direction of the IoT in the future. This paper uses the CSSCI in CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) database as a data source, using the software such as VOSviewer, Citespace, Bicomb, Ucinet, and SPSS to get statistical visualization, co-occurrence analysis, cluster analysis, social network analysis, and multidimensional scale analysis. We find that research in the field of IoT is rich and well-defined. But there is a lack of effective communication and cooperation among researchers. It's remarkable to promote communication among scholars in the field of IoT and provide research directions for researchers.
