Computing and Games Design

Many academic databases that search for journal articles also include conference papers, which are sometimes also referred to as conference proceedings. These papers are based on presentations given by researchers at academic or industry conferences. While some conference papers present complete research studies, many report on preliminary findings or work in progress. They can be published in the form of journals, books, or webpages.

Conference papers are less likely than journal articles to go through peer review. However, they can still be useful sources, particularly in fast-developing areas of research.

These are the main databases in which you are likely to find conference papers about computing.

If you only wish to find conference papers, these databases give you the option to limit or refine your results to this type of resource.

In the course of searching these specialist resources, you may find conference papers that we do not have access to in our Library collection. If this happens, we can get the papers for you through our Document Supply Service.
