Abstract

PurposeThe purpose of this article is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the cellular manufacturing system (CMS) literature published from 1982–2021 to identify key issues and trends for the future.Design/methodology/approachA six-stage methodology is used to conduct a literature review, which includes: (1) article collection; (2) inclusion/exclusion criteria; (3) reviewing the articles; (4) analyzing the articles; (5) framework development; and (6) future research directions. A total of 936 CMS-specific articles are reviewed. This paper made use of three software tools: the R package, VOSviewer and SciMAT.FindingsAccording to the findings, the majority of CM researchers focused on cell formation and design. The USA, Iran and India are the top three leading publishers. Additionally, the gap and future direction of CM are discussed.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors' knowledge, the current study is the first attempt to investigate CMS evaluation through bibliometric and thematic analysis and provides a decisional framework as well as steps for CMS adoption. For individuals who are interested in understanding more about CMS and its evolution, this paper offers a starting point.

元胞制造系统:描述性文献计量分析、框架、实施步骤及未来研究方向

本文的目的是对1982-2021年间发表的细胞制造系统(CMS)文献进行文献计量分析，以确定未来的关键问题和趋势。设计/方法/方法采用六阶段方法进行文献综述，包括:(1)文章收集;(2)纳入/排除标准;(三)审稿;(4)分析文章;(5)框架开发;(6)未来研究方向。本文共综述了936篇cms相关文章。本文使用了三个软件工具:R包、VOSviewer和SciMAT。根据研究结果，大多数CM研究人员专注于细胞的形成和设计。美国、伊朗和印度是前三大出版商。此外，还讨论了CM的差距和未来发展方向。原创性/价值据作者所知，本研究是第一次尝试通过文献计量学和专题分析来研究CMS评估，并为采用CMS提供了决策框架和步骤。对于有兴趣了解CMS及其演变的个人，本文提供了一个起点。

期刊介绍： Benchmarking is big news for companies committed to total quality programmes. Its enthusiastic reception by many prominent business figures has created high levels of interest in a technique which promises big rewards for co-operating partners. Yet, like total quality itself, it must be understood in its proper context, and implemented single mindedly if it is to be effective - this journal helps companies to decide if benchmarking is right for them, and shows them how to go about it successfully.
