Abstract:
The fifth industrial revolution is set to transform the industry-consumer relationship, particularly impacting the urban-based food services sector. To gain insights into its potential trajectory, a systematic literature review employed a modified Non-negative Matrix Factorization algorithm to quantitatively identify emerging research trends and existing work in smart cities, food, nutrition, and artificial intelligence. The study revealed that smart cities will facilitate automatic connections between consumers, farms, restaurants, and health systems. With automated management systems triggered by meal orders, waste reduction, minimized environmental logistics costs, customization of consumer preferences, and personalized health recommendations can be achieved.
