What are PhDs Researching on Industry 4.0? A Comparison of the Main Universities in Brazil and Spain
摘要
This article aims to analyze the doctoral theses that study Industry 4.0 (I4.0) in Brazil and Spain. For this, we performed a content analysis aided by the IRAMUTEQ software and a framing analysis. Three major areas of research were identified: one that studies general management aspects of I4.0, another that deals with implementation issues, and a third one that addresses specific technologies of I4.0. Results can help inform policymakers and decision-makers in government and academia.
