Experiment Data Sets
DBLP
Search for Computer Science Authors and Publications, simple search, has links to authors' homepages.
The Collection of CS Bibliographies.
A meta-database pulling many online bibliographies together. Huge database and BIBTeX entries for all papers. Some links to online version, but no homepages.
ResearchIndex.
Allows search for forward references, i.e,. if you have a paper, you can search who cites that paper. Most comprehensive database that I know. Some links to online versions of papers and authors' homepages.
BibFinder.
BibFinder is a free computer science bibliography search engine. It integrates CSB, DBLP, ACM Digital Library, ScienceDirect, CiteSeer, and Google. These sources are partially overlapping both in tuples and attributes. For example, some sources may have bibtex for a paper, some may have pdf file for the paper, some may have abstract. By combining them, this presents a unified and more complete view to the user. For more information on this search engine, click at About BibFinder. .

If you cannot find the paper you want, try this website.
NCSTRL.
The Networked Computer Science Technical Reference Library provides a search interface for Technical Reports. Connects to the ftp-Server of the TR's home university. A bit slow. Haven't used it extensively.
