The use of these techniques made it possible to visualize the overall intellectual struc- ture that results from the first 20 years of research in the field of smart cities.The structure is illustrated in Figure 5,and is represented by a network of undirected and unweighted links in which the 1,067 source documents are nodes and the 957 citations referring to them are the connecting elements.This graph has been obtained using the Fruchter- man-Reingold layout algorithm provided by the open-source software Gephi(Fruchter- man and Reingold,1991).Within the graph,the source documents are represented by a circle with a diameter proportional to the number of citations they have received.There- fore,the larger the circle,the greater number of citations.In addition,source documents with at least one citation are shown in blue,whereas those without citations are gray. By observing the organization of the nodes,it becomes evident that fragmentation and divergence are the main features of this structure,and they result from the absence of con- nections between the source documents.This means that the impressive growth of avail- able scientific literature observed in the last three years of the second decade goes hand increate the connections between publications.
