오픈소스 프로젝트 데이터 기반 스마트홈 기술 생태계 분석: Matter 표준을 중심으로

The smarthome market is experiencing rapid growth, exceeding a compound annual growth rate of 20%. However, previous research in this area has predominantly relied on patent-based approaches, resulting in a lag in capturing the content and pace of technological change. This study aims to analyze the latest trends and structures in smarthome technology, with a focus on the Matter standard, using GitHub data. 144 repositories related to the Matter project are collected from GitHub. The developer coupling measure is used to measure the connections between smart home projects, creating the smarthome technology network. Clustering the technology network yields the six technology clusters of smarthome: Smarthome User Experience, Autonomic Device Control, IoT Cloud Computing, Smarthome Network, IoT Platform, and Smarthome Development Support. Using the metrics of ‘stars’ and ‘releases’ in Github, this study also proposes the technology matrix of smarthome which categorize smarthome projects into four types: Trending Innovators, Established Standards, Dynamic Evolvers, and Hidden Gems. The findings of this study are poised to inform decision making in formulation and implementation of technology strategy for smarthome companies.
