A bibliometric analysis and guidelines for future research perspectives

Purpose This study focus on the conceptual analysis of conjoint strategy related to Industry 4.0 (I.4.0), and all the technologies involved, like the Internet of Thinks (IoT), Internet of Services (IoS), Internet of Data (IoD), Cyber-Physical-System (CPS), and other subjects of related studies.Methodology In order to better understand Industry 4.0 analysis and guidelines for future research perspectives, we carried out a systematic literature review. Findings This literature review has synthesized and categorized in order to identify the definition, evolution, development and the degree of involvement of the term Industry 4.0 , in other production areas Limitations This literature review was limited to articles that uses search terms restricted to: Industry 4.0 or Industries in the title of articles, set of scientific articles (congress and publications), technical magazines (not scientific), consultancies and government publications, without restrictions regarding the years of publication. 97 articles published since 2012 constituted the sample. We carried out our review based on the results from the ISI Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, EBESCO, Springer, Scholar Google and Google. Research database and publications were limited to works written in Portuguese, Spanish and English. Originality/value We observed that the term Industry 4.0 is a much broader concept than originally thought. These trends (Industry 4.0, IoT, etc...) are not to be compared simply with a greater level of production automation, a process that has, since the last decade, been driven by developments in electronics and information technology. The widespread adoption by manufacturing industry around the world of information and communications technology is now paving the way for disruptive approaches to development, production, logistics chain and enterprise, machine-to-machine (m2m), machine-to-human (m2h), human-to-human
