Bibliometric-Systematic Literature Review (B-SLR) Framework

The Bibliometric-Systematic Literature Review (B-SLR) is a structured framework for conducting systematic literature reviews informed by bibliometric analyses.
The B-SLR framework is built on three fundamental principles: research process transparency, results reproducibility, and the potential to generate novel scholarly contributions.
