Abstract
The last couple of sentences need editing as seem very cumbersome and vague.  
Strengthen explanation of what, in concrete terms, you discovered beyond a framework for further research?

Methodology
Blithly state on 118-121 that,"In recent decades, scientometrics have been broadly adopted as a reliable
approach, providing powerful and effective instruments for evaluating existing scientificactivities and 
impacts, identifying transformative patterns, depicting knowledge landscapes, and predicting emerging trends 
in various scientific fields".  For more of a dialectic, I would like to see more critical discussion of 
quantitative approaches.

Analysis
Change 525, "city practices has proven..." to <suggests>
Change 530, "As proven ,,," to <intimated>
Fig 120 & discussion, consider role of culture?

Presentation/langage
251, Change "View overall.." to <Viewed overall.
537-539 Edit cumbersome phrase  "the precious value rooted in the smart village concept 
is that it seeks to do much more than showcase how to employ sophisticated ICTs in rural 
settlements. 
600, "go", <goes>?

Discussion
603, Consider adding sentence to reflect on how your findings on smart village echo thoughts 
of ancient philosophers like Plato (on the polis?) or Confucious on junzi (君子)?.  To what extent 
does your smart village reflect ancient rural best practices - see e.g. in Farmers and agriculture in the Roman Economy 
(David B. Hollander, 2019) or even one of first texts on agriculature by Cato the Elder 
(De Agricultura ~160BC).
