Given the overwhelming volume of textual and numerical data, effective summarization techniques are required to extract key information while preserving content integrity. Text summarization has been a subject of research for decades, with various approaches developed using natural language processing (NLP) and a combination of different algorithms. This paper is an SLR-type essay presenting the existing text summarization techniques and their evaluation. It covers the basic concepts behind extractive and abstractive summarization and how deep learning models could serve as a boost in the performance of summarization. The study goes on to investigate the present use of text summarization in different areas and investigatesthe various methodologies applied in this area. A total of twenty-four carefully selected research articles were being analyzed to identify key trends, challenges and limitations regarding text summarization techniques. Itproposes a number of open research challenges with insight concerning possible future directions in text summarization.
