Microsoft Academic Search

I ran across a reference to this search engine in a thread bitching about ranking of publications, etc.

I suppose but my first reaction was like a kid in a candy store.

Hard to know of:

  • Algorithms & Theory
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Bioinformatics & Computational Biology
  • Computer Education
  • Computer Vision
  • Databases
  • Data Mining
  • Distributed & Parallel Computing
  • Graphics
  • Hardware & Architecture
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Information Retrieval
  • Machine Learning & Pattern Recognition
  • Multimedia
  • Natural Language & Speech
  • Networks & Communications
  • Operating Systems
  • Programming Languages
  • Real-Time & Embedded Systems
  • Scientific Computing
  • Security & Privacy
  • Simulation
  • Software Engineering
  • World Wide Web
  • Computer Science Overall
  • Other Domains Overall

…which to choose first!

As far as the critics of this site, I have to agree it isn’t everything it could be.

But that is a good thing because it leaves Microsoft and everyone else something to strive for.

I don’t have any illusions about corporate entities, including Microsoft.

But, all of them have people working for them who do good work, that benefits the public interest, and who are doing so while working for a corporate entity.

I know that because I know people who work for a number of the larger software corporate entities.

I am sure you know some of them too.
