A bibliometric analysis of the Intelligent transportation systems based on science mapping
Date
2014-04Abstract
In this paper we highlight the conceptual structure of the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) research field in the period 1992-2011. To do that, an automatic approach for detecting and visualizing hidden themes and their evolution across a consecutive span of years is applied. This automatic approach, based on co-word analysis, combines performance
analysis and science mapping. To show the conceptual evolution of ITS, three consecutive periods have been defined: 1992-2001, 2002-2006, 2007-2011. We have identified that the
ITS research has been focused on six main thematic areas: VEHICLE-AND-ROAD-TRACKING, DRIVER-BEHAVIORAND-SAFETY, SCENARIOS-SIMULATION, TRAFFIC-FLOWAND-TRAFFIC-MANAGEMENT, VEHICLE-CONTROL and VEHICLE-NAVIGATION.
