Resumen
Technological progress has recently led to the emergence of various technological resources and means that are improving specific aspects of society. An example of this can be found in the ?internet of things? and ?edge computing?. The present study aims at knowing and analyzing the scientific literature of the set of terms formed by ?edge computing? and ?internet of things?, called from now on ECIT. In order to carry out the research, a study has been developed, based on bibliometrics, by means of scientific mapping. In this case, different production indicators have been taken into account, as well as the structural and dynamic development of the terms and authors extracted from the publications through the programs Analyze Results, Creation Citation Report and SciMAT. The results indicate that the study theme ?edge computing? and ?internet of things? is of recent creation, given that its beginnings date back to 2014. Since then the level of production has been dizzying, increasing considerably in the past two years. It can be concluded that the field of study of ECIT is of recent creation, with a solid research base based on the ?internet of things?. Furthermore, the themes ?big data?, ?energy? and ?framework? can be considered as the future lines of research on ECIT.
