The global financial crisis that followed Lehman Brothers' declaration of bankruptcy in September 2008 critically highlighted the significance of research on systemic risk and macro-prudential supervision. Accordingly, this paper mainly analyzed the relationship between financial crises and the article output in financial crisis research through the application of bibliometrics. The occurrence of a financial crisis leads to changes in the output of articles on crisis and risks. Hence, we focused on bibliographic coupling (e.g., co-authorship, co-occurrence), data classification by risk type in this study (e.g., market risk, credit risk) and citation analysis (e.g., top 1% cited paper). Meanwhile, the analysis indicated the most relevant disciplines in financial crisis research. For example, the number of top 1% cited articles and citations, MARKET RISK documents and citations published the most papers. In other words, the market risk is valued in the financial risk literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nanoparticles have been considered in many fields such as medicine and industry due to their very small size and their special physicochemical properties. Biosynthesis of nanoparticles has advantages over other methods. This paper examines the bibliography of the relationship between nanotechnology and fungi from 1985 to 2021. Data were collected from three databases consisting of Web of Science, Scopus, and Dimensions. The number and type of documents were examined and then the analysis was continued using VOSviewer and Bibliometrix-package on the documents of the Scopus database. Analysis of 1203 documents from this database showed an upward trend in the publication in recent years. The term "Fungi" was also identified as the keyword index and India as the country with the most published documents. Future research is likely to be on using modern techniques in the study of nanoparticles as well as focusing on other genera of fungi. This paper explores the relationship between nanotechnology and fungi from 1985 to 2021. Biosynthesis offers advantages in creating nanoparticles, which are tiny particles with unique properties used in many fields. Data from three databases were analysed, indicating an increasing trend in publications in recent years. Future research is likely to focus on modern techniques to study nanoparticles and other types of fungi. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a pioneering systematic literature review (SLR) that scrutinizes the increasingly pivotal role of resilience in manufacturing strategy (MS), a perspective notably absents in previous literature. In the wake of disruptive events, our study provides an exhaustive analysis of resilience within MS, employing a meticulous multi-stage process encompassing article collection, critical evaluation, and both bibliometric and content analyses. Utilizing Atlas.ti © for an enhanced analytical depth, the study distinctly maps current trends and pinpoints previously unexplored gaps in this research area. Post-2020, a surge in academic focus on MS and resilience is evident, and our analysis brings forth critical research domains such as the formulation of theoretical resilience frameworks and the refinement of strategic resilience in manufacturing. The study accentuates the necessity of agility and responsiveness in manufacturing, emphasizing the integration of uncertainty into decision-making processes. It also highlights the instrumental role of technological innovation, particularly the adoption of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies, in reinforcing resilience. Through a detailed content analysis, our research systematically categorizes findings into approaches to resilience, resilience components, and MS resilience. This provides a structured and comprehensive understanding of the subject, advocating for a multidisciplinary approach that amalgamates strategic management, advanced technologies, and insights into cultural and organizational dynamics. This holistic perspective is vital for shaping manufacturing systems that are resilient and adaptable in a volatile global context. As a foundational reference, this study marks a significant leap in research, setting the stage for future endeavors to develop robust, adaptable manufacturing practices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The increasing popularity and adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem in various domains has brought attention to the security breaches linked with this paradigm. As the number of IoT devices continues to grow, it is essential to ensure that they are secured to protect against potential threats and attacks. IoT network proliferation of interconnected devices has significantly raised security concerns making them attractive targets for cyber attackers seeking to gain unauthorized access to systems and cause disruptions. As IoT networks collect and transmit sensitive data using centralized architecture, ensuring security and integrity of these networks becomes paramount. Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) has emerged as a promising solution for enhancing IoT security. Two prominent DLT platforms: Blockchain and Internet of Things Application (IOTA) technologies can provide a more secure and resilient foundation for IoT ecosystems, and also help to mitigate risks associated with central node vulnerabilities. DLT-based IoT systems can also enable the creation of decentralized marketplaces and autonomous agents that can operate without human intervention. The objective of this research is to offer a comprehensive as well as fundamental study of IoT ecosystems and its associated security risks. Moreover, this paper provides a holistic study of the DLT platform and bibliometric inspection using VoS viewer tool on generic DLT platform technologies i.e., Blockchain and IOTA for securing data in IoT ecosystem. By leveraging bibliometric insights resulting from both DLT technologies, this study identities the most promising areas for further investigation and contribute to advancing security in IoT ecosystems. This survey contributes to the ongoing discourse on IoT security by providing a thorough comprehensive comparison of DLT solutions i.e., Blockchain and IOTA technologies on various key metrics, revealing that IOTA technology is projected to offer significant improvements over blockchain in securing sustainable IoT ecosystems.

Since the 2000s, the interest around smart cities continues to grow due to the increasing digitalization, urbanization, and marketing of the smart city idea by tech companies. A central characteristic of smart cities is their use of digital technologies. One of these technologies that is increasingly applied in smart cities is the blockchain. Re-search on blockchain and how it is used within smart cities has grown significantly over the last years. Nowadays, research on blockchain in smart cities is a heterogeneous research field with contributions from many different disciplines. This paper therefore seeks to provide an analysis and overview of the emergent research field of the application of blockchain technology in smart cities. We do so by conducting a bibliometric analysis of research published between 2014 and 2021. As results, we give a thematic and bibliometric overview of this research field. This includes an overview of the past research on blockchain for smart cities, its key topics, and main areas of research. Furthermore, by giving an overview of potential future research questions, we aim to provide researchers with a platform for further developments within this field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The International Journal of Information Technology and Decision Making (IJITDM) was launched in 2002 to study how the information technology and decision-making technique affect each other. To summarize the progress of the journal in the latest 11 years, a bibliometric overview of the IJITDM publications from 2012 to 2022 is provided to identify the conceptual evolution and development situation of the journal during this time slot. To do this, first, the publication and citation structures of the publications in this journal is presented. Then, the scientific network map analysis, including keywords analysis, co-authorship analysis and co-citation analysis, is performed in details. Furthermore, the development trends of information technologies and decision-making methods are discussed to dig out factors that influence the evolution of topics in IJITDM publications. Finally, conclusions of this study are offered. It is found that the IJITDM grew significantly from 2012 to 2022. The work presented in this paper will help scholars to obtain systematic knowledge and structured understanding of the research hotspots and development trends of the journal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
