Interoperability for Emerging Technologies: A Systematic Scoping Review

Interoperability (IOP) is crucial for integrating emerging technologies (ETs) in the public sector, enabling efficient data exchange and interaction across various applications, systems, services, and organizations. Recognizing a gap in the sys-tematic study of IOP's role in the context of rapid technological advancements, this study employs a scoping review following PRISMA guidelines to identify key challenges and opportunities of IOP for adopting ETs in the public sector. Our analysis shows that a comprehensive approach to IOP is essential for max-imizing the potential of ETs in the public sector. This approach promises to en-sure smooth data exchange, effective system integration, stakeholder collabora-tion, legal and regulatory compliance, and enhanced public service provision. Our findings add to the ongoing discussion on digital transformation in the public sec-tor, providing new insights into achieving a seamless technological ecosystem that integrates ETs and promotes innovative, efficient, and user-friendly public services.
