Answer: Conference publications published by the IEEE Computer Society's Conference Publishing Services (CPS) are professionally indexed through INSPEC. Produced by the IET, INSPEC is the leading English-language bibliographic information service providing access to the world's scientific and technical literature in physics, electrical engineering, electronics, communications, control engineering, computers and computing, and information technology. If interested, you can learn more about INSPEC at http://www.iee.org/publish/inspec/

All CPS conference publications are also submitted for indexing to EI's Engineering Information Index, Compendex, (Elsevier http://www.ei.org/), and ISI Thomson's Scientific and Technical Proceedings, ISTP/ISI Proceedings, and Current Contents on Diskette (ISI Thomson http://www.isinet.com/). IEEE conference publications are not indexed in ISI Thomson's Science Citation Index (SCI), a journal index, nor are they cited in ISI Thomson's Journal Citation Report (JCR). ISI Thomson does not currently index CD-ROMs, only print products.
