Computer Database provides full-text and image articles for a wide variety of research applications, including: Competitive analysis of high tech companies and their products; Research on industry trends in telecommunications, electronics, robotics and more; Research on software and hardware.

Computer Source provides researchers with the latest information and current trends in high technology. This database offers full text for nearly 300 publications and indexing and abstracts for nearly 450 publications.

Compendex is one of the most comprehensive engineering literature databases available to engineers with 14 million records across 190 engineering disciplines. Available on Engineering Village, users get results that are consistently accurate. Relevant. Up-to-date. And easy to find. Compendex indexes 1,031 journals that contain articles-in-press. Compendex covers subjects in every engineering discipline including: Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Mining Engineering.

IEEE Xplore contains full text access to the technical literature in electrical engineering, computer science, and electronics.

SpringerLink is the platform for European based publisher Springer. It provides online access to reference works and other e-books, in addition to their journals in the scientific, technical, and medical fields. Note - MSU Libraries has not purchased all content on this platform.

Find citations for a broad range of scientific literature (including patents) and track, analyze and visualize citations by document, author, zip code, or institution.

Includes the Institute for Scientific Information Citation Indexes - Arts and Humanities, Social Science, and Science. It indexes science, social sciences, and arts and humanities information from nearly 9,300 of the most prestigious, high impact research journals in the world.

Indexes over 300 journals covering advertising art; antiques; archaeology; architecture and architectural history; art history; computers in art; crafts; decorative arts; fashion; folk art; graphic arts; industrial design; interior design; landscape architecture; motion pictures; museology; painting; photography; pottery; sculpture; television; textiles; and video.

The DOAJ is both a directory and searchable database. The directory can be browsed by broad subject categories. Each journal title is assigned at least one broad subject category such as Technology and individual articles are assigned at least one subject category. Clicking on the subject category creates a list of all the journal titles assigned a given subject category and all of journal articles assigned the subject category. It also possible to search the DOAJ as a collection of articles.

A good index to use if you need to find more scholarly information about computer game design and development than you found using the traditional indexes and databases.

An online database of video games with over 300,000 games listed.

Information on video games and the people and companies behind them. The site has over 300,000 games listed.
