        The purpose of this study is to investigate industry 4.0 advancement in various application areas of Iranian industry using Internet of Things -based achievements and technologies. In this research, 112 articles were studied by searching for specialized keywords related to the topic and using valid research sources. In the following, 88 abstracts of articles related to Internet of Things applications were reviewed. In the review we finally made up the 32 title of our article on the subject literature. According to the subject literature, various applications of iot were extracted and categorized in a table; Then, by forming a target group of experts and designing a paired comparative questionnaire for the AHP method and using Expert Choice software, the results showed that according to infrastructure criteria, financial support, senior management support, training training, firmware availability., Communication Security, Expertise and Desire for Innovation, Intelligent Manufacturing Including Automotive Industry, Intelligent Industrial Control and Manufacturing, Supply Chain Management and Support, Smart Networks, Intelligent Logistics, Intelligent Manufacturing Services and Processes, etc. Industry 4.0 with Internet of Things technology. There is also a low level of environmental and recycling usability that requires senior managers to support Internet of Things technology transfer strategies, the use of Internet of Things specialists, and the financial support of upstream managers to leverage the Internet of Things -compliant infrastructure. This area will pave the way for industry 4.0. Manuscript profile

        The fourth industrial revolution, with the convergence of new technologies, has led to the emergence of smart cities. While the smartening of cities by governments has been happening at a high speed, the concept and implementation of the smart city are still being updated and changed. In this regard, the current research aims to analyze the thematic trends of publications on smart city in the Web of Science (WoS) database from the emergence of the fourth industrial revolution to 2021, and track the thematic trends of these studies. This scientometric research was carried out descriptively with the content analysis method, using the techniques of co-occurrence analysis and social network analysis. The trends of publications and citation influence of studies in the field of smart cities in the last decade has had an upward growth of 38.78% and 69.49%, respectively. In the three time periods, "IoT, City, Internet, and Wireless Sensor Network" have the most frequency, "IOT, City, Internet, and Wireless Sensor Network" have the most connections, and "ipv6, Sustainable City, and Urban Development" in 2012–2015, "Taxonomy, cloud objects and distributed computing" in 2016–2018 and "Literature review, urban informatics, and sustainable urban development" in 2019-2021 have received the most citations. In 2012–2015, clusters of sensor networks, smartphones, genetic algorithms, advanced sensors, ubiquitous city, and m2m; in 2016-2018 clusters of deep learning, participation, evolutionary algorithms, ubiquitous computing, and smart cities; and in 2019-2021 blockchain clusters, participation citizenship, IoT, topics, technologies, and tools.multi-agent systems, and Brazil were identified.
