Abstract

The current article presents a bibliometric anaylisis about the contribution made by the Internet of Things (IoT), from its appearance, viewed since social, academic and techonological levels. This analysis was carried out collecting information to a global standard, also it was reviewed more than 60.000 files, which are in the bibliogaphic database Scopus, by means of the techonological tool RStudio. This resource supports the processing of obtained data and whose main idea is to highlight the importance of different scientific and academic cooperations that are developed to national and international standard, which are focused on to research about this topic. It was used the method of information analysis, which consists in study design, data summary, proecessing and display, also the obtained results interpretation since the reckonings made through Rstudio. These results show that the IoT is a very important reference frame to its applicability in many production and services fields to a global level. It is also evident that the United States and China are nations that develop scientific production to a large-scale about the IoT, allocating a big quantity of human, physic and techological resources to such aim.
