Treffer: A literature Review of Research on The Development of Digital Technologies

The rapid development of the digital economy has driven transformative changes in digital technologies. This study aims to systematically examine the evolutionary trajectory of digital technology development by first analyzing its conceptual definitions and characteristic features. Based on an extensive collection and review of relevant literature, we employ a literature analysis approach to synthesize existing research on digital technology advancement. Specifically, this investigation explores the interconnections between digital technologies and six critical domains: 1) industrial restructuring, 2) high-quality economic development, 3) manufacturing transformation, 4) innovation ecosystems, 5) carbon peaking/neutrality goals, and 6) social governance mechanisms. A critical review is subsequently conducted to identify research gaps and propose future directions.
