Abstract

An industry 4.0 concept has received global concern as a research focus in recent years. Following an increasing interest in the area that merges digital /industry 4.0 technologies in the maritime field, this paper aims to identify the technologies of industry 4.0 and find out how they are connected in the maritime domain. To do this a bibliometric analysis of keyword co-occurrence was applied in this paper. VOSviewer software package was adopted as a bibliometric analysis tool and the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database was used as the primary source for data collection. The research population consists of scientific products indexed in the WebScience database from the period of 2000 to 2021. The findings indicate that industry 4.0 is a new concept in the maritime domain. Furthermore, among industry 4.0 technologies big data and artificial intelligence had been widely studied keywords in the maritime context. While this research didn’t provide strong evidence for the emergence of 3D printing in the maritime domain which requires further research.
