Abstract

This document explains and demonstrates how to redefine and reclassify the Literature Review under the Big Data environment. We compared the three typical traditional definitions by Cooker, Fink and Machi-McEvoy, and found that their definitions have not adapted to the present age. According to the new requirements about Literature Review, we put forward a new redefinition for it. Our new redefinition includes 11 attributes, which are essence, objects, objectives, patterns or forms, procedures, requirements, results, contents, scope, significance and technique. In addition, except adjusting the classifications of Basic Literature Review and Senior Literature Review, the new type Synthetical Research of Literature Review is added and discussed in detail. From the redefinition and reclassification we can know the variation of Literature Review and the Literature Review should be sharing, reusable, systematic, comprehensive and consistent in Big Data era.
