The SMEALSearch Engine
http://smealsearch.psu.edu/

SMEALSearch is a niche search engine that searches the web and catalogs academic articles as well as commercially produced articles and reports that address any branch of Business. The search engine crawls websites of universities, commercial organizations, research institutes and government departments to retrieve academic articles, working papers, white papers, consulting reports, magazine articles, and published statistics and facts. For certain documents, the database only stores the hyperlinks to those documents. SMEALSearch performs a citation analysis of all the academic articles accessed and lists them in order of their citation rates in academic papers (the most cited articles are listed first). Articles available through the SMEALSearch engine can be downloaded (for fair use) without any charges. However, some articles may have only the abstracts listed, and may have to be purchased directly from the appropriate sources. The SMEALSearch Engine gratefully acknowledges the support of NEC and Dr.Steve Lawrence in the development of SMEALSearch.

SMEALSearch is the only search engine focused on Business that can:
- automatically gather and index specific research information such as author, title, abstract, and citations.
- perform key-word searches on the full content of all documents selected.
- conduct citation searches to identify the most influential articles.
- accept article submissions from users, ensuring the most complete and current database in the Business world.
