Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the importance of digital technology in a specific region’s epidemic prevention and control, and the digital transformation strategy based on the open innovation system is an emerging way to tackle conceivable outbreaks. Based on the bibliometric study of relevant literature data, this paper evaluated the research and development status in this field, and conducted a systematic literature review on the basis of the core articles identified. The results of bibliometric analysis software, including CiteSpace, CitNetExplorer and VOSViewer, showed that the development of relevant research presented rapidity and decentralization, and the evolution process of literature topics further implies the necessity of interdisciplinary and multisectoral collaboration. Furthermore, this paper summarized the specific implementation strategies for constructing an open innovation system, and discussed the role and development plan of digital technology in epidemic prevention and control.
