Energy Efficiency in Cloud Computing: Exploring the Intellectual Structure of the Research Field and Its Research Fronts with Direct Citation Analysis

The aim of the study is to explore the intellectual structure of the field and fronts in research on energy efficiency in the context of cloud computing and thus to contribute to science mapping of the research field. The research process was driven by the following study questions: (1) what are the...
