# Internet of Things and Distributed Computing Systems in Business Models
## 3 Publication Distribution  
Internet of Things and Distributed Computing Systems in Business Models were addressed up to August 2024. 2018 topped the number of publications reviewed by peers with as many as 24 publications. As seen below (Figure 2), the relevant literature up to August 2024 is displayed. The papers were ordered in the following manner: Proceedings from the 19 th IEEE International Conference On Computational Science And Engineering 14 th IEEE International Conference On Embedded And Ubiquitous Computing And 15 th International Symposium On Distributed Computing And Applications To Business Engineering And Science Cse Euc Dcubes 2016 8 (6); Lecture Notes In Business Information Processing (5); IEEE Transactions On Engineering Management (4); the Proceedings 2018 IEEE from the 27 th International Conference on Enabling Technologies Infrastructure For Collaborative Enterprises Wetice 2018 (2); Proceedings 2017 5 th International Conference On Enterprise Systems Industrial Digitalization By Enterprise Systems Es 2017; Proceedings 14 th International Symposium On Distributed Computing And Applications For Business Engineering And Science Dcubes 2015; Knowledge Based Systems; Journal Of Network And Systems Management; Journal Of Cleaner Production; International Journal Of Production Research; International Journal Of Information Management; IEEE Potentials; IEEE International Conference On Industrial Engineering And Engineering Management; and Benchouncil Transactions On Benchmarks Standards And Evaluations). The last publication presents the residual outcome of one document. Similarly, Figure 3 shows the geographical representation of the literature on the subject. China, the United States, Indian subcontinent, and Germany topped with regard to significant literature in the area, compared with other regions. On the other hand, Table 3 together with Figure 3 gathers the key scientific contributors in terms of countries for the theme. Note that the figure below displays the publications by geographic region, irrespective of their varying co-authors' nationalities, which implies that the number of citations by authors might mismatch the number of ensuing regional publications. This study intends to identify geographies that underline technology in terms of IoT, for instance with respect to tourism. Figure 2: Documents by year. Source: Scopus platform output. In Table 4, we examine the Scimago Journal & Country Rank (SJR), best quartile, and H-index for the journal* Technological Forecasting and Social Change*, which has an SJR of 5.780, a Q1 quartile ranking, and an H-index of 177. Among the 68 publication titles, 13 fall into Q1, seven into Q2, one into Q3, and three into Q4. Publications in the top quartile, Q1, represent 19% of the total, while Q2 accounts for 10%, Q3 for 1%, and Q4 for 4%. Additionally, 44 publications, or 65% of the total, do not have indexing data. As shown in Table 4, most publications are categorized in the Q1 quartile. \begin{table}
