Featured Database: Synthesis Digital Library of Engineering and Computer Science
You can use databases to easily find organized collections of articles, journals, news, streaming videos, primary sources, data, and more!
Here’s one of our favorites:
What’s in it?
Lectures, short books, summarize/synthesize important research or developing topics in computer science, data science, distributed computing, or engineering, by a current expert in the field. Synthesis is organized by series, each managed by a consulting editor who is also a prominent researcher in the field. Algorithms & Software in Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Vision, Data Mining & Knowledge Discovery, Games & Computational Intelligence, Human Language Technologies, Materials & Optics, Power Electronics, Renewable Energy Technologies, Technology & Health, and Computer Graphics, Animation, Computational Photography & Imaging are some of the series.
Why should you use it?
Created to move ongoing developments and research into the published world quickly and with expertise this database examines and reveals recent technologies and ideas for advanced undergraduate and graduate students.
Who should use it?
This is for those interested in exploring unique and timely aspects of engineering and computer science in topics that crossover between computer science, data science, biomechanics, transportation, engineering, optics, and bioengineering.
Why use a database?
When you use a specific database, rather than a search engine or discovery tool, you often can find more relevant sources. For example, subject databases include sources about that subject only, rather than a general search engine or discovery tool that includes information about everything. This way you don’t have to wade through thousands of irrelevant results!
