These two words keep me wondering for the differences in between,
anyone could shed a light on them for me ?

A proceedings typically represents a collection of papers which were
originally presented a conference.

A journal is a place where articles are published on a specific field.

Typically, the review process for conferences is less involved than the
one for journals. In many cases, conference talks are accepted based
only on an abstract whereas journal articles typically go through a
peer-review process prior to acceptance for publication.

I did not see krause's original posting, but I'm afraid I have to
contradict Andre's response.

A proceedings does represent a collection of papers presented at a
conference.

A journal, however, is simply a serial publication -- it typically
appears four times a year, but sometimes more often, sometimes less.

Journals can be very broad in coverage (like *Science* and *Nature*) or
very narrow, they can have rigorous (like *Language*) or no peer-review
process; the only defining characteristic is that it is received by
subscription.
