The Analysis Of Hotspot And Detection Of Research Front Of Supply Chain Management Domestic And Abroad Based On Knowledge Map

In the era of economic globalization,the market has become more competitive than ever before.Customers now require products with better quality and better additional services.Applying supply chain management is able to sharpen the competitive edge by sharing information,improving the efficiency of fund utilization and increasing inter-enterprise cooperation,influencing the customers' satisfaction.Hence,supply chain management has been more and more important to companies,as a result,the researches and analysis of supply chain management has been developed a lot both in companies and academia in the past decades.In order to promote the development of the researches of supply chain management and to have a better understanding of supply chain management,we should get to know more about the research status and research fronts.This investigation will use knowledge map method to prepare a graph of data visualization of the papers in supply chain management from 1998 to 2015.The tools applied in this article include co-word analysis,social network Analysis and cluster analysis with the data from SCI and CSSCI database.After the graph is prepared,the research highlights will be collected from the graph to analyze the global relations of qualitative and quantitative supply chain research by using citation analysis and display the regional character of researches.The key words could be detected by the Kleinberg burst detect algorithm,a method to extract information,and then the key words will demonstrate the research fronts.With the research of this paper,conclusions can be drawn as follows: First of all,the research highlights in abroad supply chain management field include impact of supply chain on organizational performance,environment-friendly supply chain management,and closed-loop supply chain management;The domestic highlights in abroad supply chain management field include knowledge management environment-friendly supply chain management,information sharing,and international competitiveness of enterprises.Secondly,there are the largest number of published articles in supply chain management field,which represents accurate insights of Chinese researchers.Thirdly,the research front in domestic supply chain management include risk management and application structural equation modeling in supply chain field;The research front in abroad supply chain management include application of environment-friendly supply chain management and enterprise dynamic theory.These research fronts will help other researchers conduct further research.
