New Resource: Computing Reviews

Posted by mharvey under Databases, Journals
Leave a Comment 

Several years ago, ACM created their online resource called ACM Digital Library.  We became immediate subscribers.  At that time, one of their journal titles, Computing Reviews, broke off and became their own online service.  We have finally added this resource to our offerings.  Designed to provide an up-to-date overview of the field, this is a resource for both specialists and generalists.

It has become a community of over 1,000 reviewers, who are all experts in their fields.  They provide timely commentaries and authoritative critiques, helping readers find the best new books and articles in computing.   New reviews are published daily, and the resource provides searching, browsing, and alerting functions, enabling readers to survey the computing literature as a whole or pinpoint a particular item.

In 2004, Computing Reviews added Hot Topics essays to its site. Each essay is written by an expert and focuses on an area with a potential high impact on computing.  Mapping the background, current developments, and future evolution of a topic, the essays also provide a comprehensive context with links to labs, projects, workshops, and relevant items reviewed in Computing Reviews.  All Hot Topics essays are updated on a regular basis.

So check out Computing Reviews at:  http://reviews.com

Scifinder Scholar now has a web version available. In the past, you were required to download the program to your computer–that’s no longer required.

SciFinder is an interface to scientific information from Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS). SciFinder allows you to search millions of chemical references and substances. You can search by research topic, author name, structure and substructure, chemical name or CAS Registry Number, company/name organization, browse the table of contents in journals, and by reaction query.

SciFinder web version: http://www.library.cmu.edu/Search/DB/scifinder.html
