Search engine and online engineering community operator GlobalSpec, US, has announced an expanded partnership agreement with the US' Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
Under the new deal, visitors to the IEEE Xplore website, a digital library providing full text access to high quality technical literature in electrical engineering, computer science, and electronics, will now be able to access over one million application notes available on GlobalSpec. Application notes are content created by companies to explain, illustrate and promote technologies or products. These are searchable by keywords and will be displayed separately from IEEE Xplore search results. This full library of application notes is powered by the Engineering Web, a vertical search engine consisting of more than 200 million web pages of engineering and technical content, indexed by GlobalSpec.
The relationship between GlobalSpec and the IEEE was initially established in 2005. GlobalSpec currently indexes over one million technical documents, including journal articles and conference proceedings, from the IEEE on the Engineering Web. IEEE publishes over 30 percent of the world's literature in the electrical engineering and computer science fields and many of the top cited technology journals. These include 132 transactions, journals and magazines, conference proceedings and IEEE standards.
