Abstract

In this paper, the current trends of five technologies are analyzed. The target technologies are 3D printing, artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing and internet of things, which are significant for industry 4.0. The trends are analyzed to figure out the current researching situation of the selected five technologies and predicate the leading country in the era of industry 4.0. USA and China are the most leading countries. UK, Germany, France, and Italy in Europe and India, Japan, and Korea in Asia are following. Most researches are carried out in universities or national laboratories. Therefore, the political intention of the government, and the well-performed system which manages and supports the research projects are the most significant features that determine the competitive power of each nation. The quantity and quality of researches are analyzed using Elsevier’s Scopus database from 2012 to 2016.
