conference proceedings
A publication that collects the academic contributions and presentations from a conference or symposium. The term is usually used in the plural ('Proceedings') as the title for the conference volume.
Sein Artikel wurde für das offizielle Proceeding der Konferenz angenommen.
His article was accepted for the official conference proceedings.
In German, 'das Proceeding' or 'die Proceedings' refers almost exclusively to an academic conference volume. In English, 'proceedings' has a much broader meaning and can also refer to a procedure, a hearing, or the course of events.
Die Proceedings der Konferenz werden online veröffentlicht.
The conference proceedings will be published online.
This word is almost always used in the plural, 'die Proceedings', to refer to the complete collected volume of a conference. The singular 'das Proceeding' for an individual contribution is very rare.
Alle Vorträge sind in den Proceedings zusammengefasst.
All the talks are collected in the proceedings.
'Proceeding(s)' is a technical term from the academic and scientific world. Outside universities and research institutions, this word is hardly used.
Für meine Doktorarbeit muss ich viele verschiedene Proceedings lesen.
For my doctoral thesis, I have to read many different proceedings.
edited volume / anthology
'der Sammelband' and 'das Proceeding' can both collect academic contributions in a publication. A 'Sammelband' is more general: it can contain various essays on a topic, even without a conference. A 'Proceeding', on the other hand, belongs to a conference or symposium and collects the contributions presented there. The words are easy to confuse because both can look like an academic volume with several texts. If the texts come from a conference, 'Proceeding' or usually 'Proceedings' is more precise. Otherwise, 'Sammelband' often fits.
Nach der Konferenz hat die Gruppe die Proceedings online veröffentlicht.
After the conference, the group published the proceedings online.
