Abstract
Rapid technological advances have led to the emergence of smart cities, where digital systems and technologies are integrated to improve urban life. The research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of digital governance in smart cities by conducting in-depth studies using VOSviewer and CiteSpace. The study used a meta-analysis approach to analyze various literature from the Scopus database related to digital governance in smart cities. VOSviewer is used for visualizing and mapping keyword coexistence, while CiteSpace is used to identify influential authors, seminal works, and emerging trends in the field of research. The findings reveal key themes and concepts surrounding digital governance, including policy frameworks, citizen participation, data privacy, and cybersecurity. In addition, the analysis highlights the nature of the development of digital governance in smart cities, with a shift towards a more inclusive and participatory approach. It identifies significant research gaps and opportunities for future studies, such as integrating artificial intelligence, blockchain, and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into the digital governance framework. The research contributes to existing knowledge by providing a comprehensive overview of digital governance in smart cities, identifying key research areas, and suggesting potential paths for further exploration.
