Dogppile is certainly a powerful search engine (cluster of engines?),
but it brings EVERYTHING, not just publications. For example, I knew
that IA published an (excellent!) article on arrastras, searched in
Google Scholar under arrastra+mining, it came up number one, with
loads of interesting related stuff to follow. Same search on Dogpile
returned the IA article number two, but loads of unrelated stuff,
like commercials for arrastra ringtones. I do not know what the
algorithms entail, but Google Scholar seems much more attuned to
scholarly research searches. Take your pick.

Iain,
I do a lot of my research using Dogpile which is a master search
engine. I find
a lot of very interesting journals that I can't find in Google Scholar.
Best of luck,
Suzanne
