       Science  is  a   competitive  business,  and  researchers  from
       different fields  are constantly  compared in terms  of funding
       and  for  promotion  evaluations.   This article  analyzes  the
       quantity  of  computer  scientists'  work  which  is  not  duly
       recognized   when   using   Web   of  Science   and/or   Scopus
       bibliometrics.    We   randomly   selected  CS   faculty   from
       highly-ranked  US Computer  Science departments  and determined
       that, on average, 67\% of their published work is not accounted
       for  within Web  of Science  searches and  44\% is  absent when
       searching  with  Scopus.  We  defined  this  parameter  as  the
       invisible  work  rate. We  compared  these  figures to  similar
       samples from  Mathematics, Physics, and  Electrical Engineering
       faculty. While CS and EE have significantly distinct publishing
       patterns as  compared to Mathematics and  Physics, the variance
       of the invisible work rate  for CS is high, which suggests that
       different  subareas  of  CS  also  have  different  publication
       practices --  a possible indication  that it will  be difficult
       for computer scientists to agree on one bibliometric evaluation
       criterion.
