Abstract
Researchers’ interest in Fog Computing and its application in different sectors has been increasing since the last decade. To discover the emerging trends inherent to this architecture, we analyzed the scientific literature indexed in Scopus through a bibliometric study. Exposing trends in areas of development will allow researchers to understand the changes and evolution over time. For analysis purposes, we used three approaches: performance analysis, science mapping, and literature clustering. Analysis results revealed promising investigation areas in the Fog Computing architecture from 2012 to 2021, which emphasizes that Fog Computing will continue to be an interesting field of research in the future.
期刊介绍:
ACM Computing Surveys is an academic journal that focuses on publishing surveys and tutorials on various areas of computing research and practice. The journal aims to provide comprehensive and easily understandable articles that guide readers through the literature and help them understand topics outside their specialties. In terms of impact, CSUR has a high reputation with a 2022 Impact Factor of 16.6. It is ranked 3rd out of 111 journals in the field of Computer Science Theory & Methods.
ACM Computing Surveys is indexed and abstracted in various services, including AI2 Semantic Scholar, Baidu, Clarivate/ISI: JCR, CNKI, DeepDyve, DTU, EBSCO: EDS/HOST, and IET Inspec, among others.
