Bibliometric network of scientific research on knowledge sharing

Open knowledge sharing offers numerous advantages, including facilitating innovation in organizations by amalgamating and incorporating knowledge to foster the development of novel processes, products, insights, and solutions. This paper seeks to evaluate the current status and visual representation of research in the field of knowledge sharing, as indexed in Scopus, using bibliometric methods. The research involved data analysis and visualization through the utilization of the VOSViewer program and Scopus search result analysis function. The review encompassed data from 1,391 documents published between 1992 and 2019. The study discovered that Oliveira, M., and the University of Technology Sydney were the most active individual researchers and affiliated institutions in the realm of knowledge sharing research. Computer science and Sustainability in Switzerland emerged as the most prevalent areas of study and sources of dissemination in knowledge sharing research. A single worldwide group map was generated to illustrate collaborative researchers. To delineate the body of knowledge accumulated over twenty-seven years of publications, this study constructed a convergence axis grouping that encapsulated the essence of knowledge sharing research: Knowledge, Human, Innovation, Research, Information, and Industry, abbreviated as KHIRII theme.
