Σύνοψη	A time-sliced systematic literature review applies the rigorous search, screening, and synthesis protocol of a standard systematic review while dividing the retrieved corpus into discrete temporal periods — time slices — and analyzing each period separately. This design reveals how a research field has developed across time: which topics emerged, grew, or declined; how key authors and journals shifted; and how intellectual structures evolved from one era to the next.	Science mapping is a bibliometric visualization method that creates visual representations of research domains, showing the structure, development, and relationships of scientific fields. Using bibliographic data (citations, keywords, authors, journals), science mapping algorithms generate network diagrams where nodes represent documents, concepts, or authors and edges represent relationships (citation, collaboration, semantic similarity). The resulting maps make invisible intellectual structures visible, enabling researchers to understand field topology, identify emerging areas, and navigate disciplinary landscapes. Pioneered by Börner, Chen, and Boyack in the 2000s, science mapping has become a standard tool in research evaluation and strategic planning.
