General Resources

BibFinder: A Computer Science Bibliography Mediator	A computer science bibliography search engine. It simultaneously searches the Collection of Cs Bibliographies, the DBLP Computer Science Bibliography, the ACM Digital Library, ScienceDirect, CiteSeer and Google. The results are compiled, making it possible to view papers in more than one format.
CiteSeerx	An evolving scientific literature digital library and search engine that focuses primarily on the literature in computer and information science.
Collection of Computer Science Bibliographies	A collection of bibliographies of scientific literature in computer science (i.e. lists of relevant articles) from various sources, covering most aspects of computer science. The about 1000 bibliographies are updated monthly from their original locations.
Compendium of Best Papers	USENIX provides access to the best papers presented at its conferences and workshops since 1990.
Computer Science Technical Reports Archive Sites	A list of academic and research institutions around the world that distribute online computer science technical reports.
The Computing Research Repository (CoRR)	CoRR seeks to be the single repository to which researchers from the whole field of computer science will submit reports as a means of rapid dissemination of research results. The database is searchable by a combination of author, title, keyword, journal, subject class, and report number; or it may be perused by subject class.
DBLP Computer Science Bibliography	The Digital Bibliography and Library Project provides bibliographic information on major computer science journals and proceedings. It can be searched by author and title or browsed by conference, journal, and broad subject. Links are often furnished to the full text.
