About this collection

Your source for up-to-date academic computer science publications! This collection provides an index to computer science technical reports that we have downloaded from selected sites on the Internet. The reports are mostly in English, but there are some in a variety of different languages. The collection contains many large documents such as PhD theses. Every single word on every page of every report is indexed -- not just the first few words, as in many other search engines -- so you can search for things that occur near the end of the document (like references) too.

This collection contains 45720 technical reports located in 296 sites around the world. The 2731 Mb of text is extracted from 34 Gb of PostScript by a system developed here. All 394 million words from 1.3 million pages are indexed. The collection also contains 28846 figures extracted from the reports.
