The original dataset of 4858 articles was narrowed down to 1109 articles concentrating on “augmented reality” AND “simulation” in student learning. Methods such as advanced data mining, co-citation analysis, and network visualization were utilized to outline the structure and trends in this research area. Key findings include a significant rise in research activity over the past decade, identification of the ten most prolific authors in AR simulation studies, and detailed visualizations of information distribution. Significant challenges include high costs and difficulties in technical integration. The study addresses these issues through interdisciplinary research that combines educational theory with AR technology. Results demonstrate growing interest in AR applications, particularly within STEM education, driven by technological advancements and increased funding. Despite these challenges, the potential of AR to enhance learning outcomes is clear. This research concludes that AR simulations can be a valuable educational tool, with further studies needed to explore the scalability of AR applications in various educational settings and to develop evidence-based guidelines for effective integration.

Abstract: Over recent years, disruptive technologies have shown considerable potential to improve supply chain efficiency. In this regard, numerous papers have explored the link between machine learning techniques and supply chain performance. However, research works still need more systematization. To fill this gap, this paper aims to systematize published papers highlighting the impact of advanced technologies, such as machine learning, on supply chain performance. A structured content analysis was conducted on 91 selected journal articles from the Scopus and Web of Science databases. Bibliometric analysis has identified nine distinct groupings of research papers that explore the relationship between the machine learning and supply chain performance. These clusters cover topics such as big data and supply chain management, knowledge management, decision-making processes, business process management, and the applications of big data analytics within this domain. Each cluster’s content was clarified through a rigorous systematic literature review. The proposed study can be seen as a kind of comprehensive initiative to systematically map and consolidate this rapidly evolving body of literature. By identifying the key research themes and their interrelationships, this analysis seeks to elucidate the current state-of-the-art and to highlight potential directions for future research in this critical field.
