Database Description

MathSci^®, produced by the American Mathematical Society (AMS), provides comprehensive coverage of the world's literature on mathematics, statistics, computer science and their applications in a wide range of disciplines, including operations research, econometrics, engineering, physics, biology, and many other related fields. Coverage is international, with nearly one third of the documents indexed originally published in languages other than English.

MathSci consists of six subfiles: Mathematical Reviews (MR), 1940-present; Current Mathematical Publications (CMP), a current awareness index; Current Index to Statistics (CIS), 1975-1994; Index to Statistics and Probability (TUKEY), a retrospective index to the literature from 1910-1968; Technical Reports in Computer Science (STR) 1954-1994; and STRENS Recreational Mathematics (SRM).

Abstracts of reviews are included in MR records. The complete Mathematics/Subject Classification System (codes and descriptors) is included in MR, CMP, and TUKEY records. CIS and STR records include assigned Keywords. Mathematical symbols in titles, reviews, and descriptors (except for MR 1973-1984 and STR) are encoded in TeX, a typesetting system for mathematics.

The combined coverage of the six components of MATHSCI includes approximately 600 journals reviewed cover-to-cover, and about 2,500 journals covered selectively. In addition, roughly 60,000 monographs, conference proceedings, theses and technical reports are reviewed annually.
