The research problem of this systematic review was whether green 6G networks can integrate energy-efficient Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) in terms of distributed artificial intelligence, green 6G pervasive edge computing communication networks and big-data-based intelligent decision algorithms. We show that sensor data fusion can be carried out in energy-efficient IoT smart industrial urban environments by cooperative perception and inference tasks. Our analyses debate on 6G wireless communication, vehicular IoT intelligent and autonomous networks, and energy-efficient algorithm and green computing technologies in smart industrial equipment and manufacturing environments. Mobile edge and cloud computing task processing capabilities of decentralized network control and power grid system monitoring were thereby analyzed. Our results and contributions clarify that sustainable energy efficiency and green power generation together with IoT decision support and smart environmental systems operate efficiently in distributed artificial intelligence 6G pervasive edge computing communication networks. PRISMA was used, and with its web-based Shiny app flow design, the search outcomes and screening procedures were integrated. A quantitative literature review was performed in July 2024 on original and review research published between 2019 and 2024. Study screening, evidence map visualization, and data extraction and reporting tools, machine learning classifiers, and reference management software were harnessed for qualitative and quantitative data, collection, management, and analysis in research synthesis. Dimensions and VOSviewer were deployed for data visualization and analysis.
