内容説明

With one million CD-ROM users worldwide expanding a the rate of 50% per annum, there is a need to demystify the technology of data recording/retrieval. This book is designed for students, engineers and management from many disciplines who wish to understand and exploit the cost-effective potential of optical data storage and retrieval. This book provides an introduction to CD-ROM and other optical recording systems. This technology is used in one in ten of all new computer systems. Every sizable library has a CD-ROM system due to the volume of information recorded onto CD-ROM media. Multimedia systems in which audio, video and data recording are all combined are being set up in business training centres, schools and academic institutions. Erasable optical recording is essential for multimedia and this book clearly describes how the two competing systems work - the magneto-optic and the phase change type. This book should help all those who use computer systems in their studies or in their businesses to understand an erasable technology that will eventually replace the floppy disc and will inform project management about the CD-ROM, the publishing media of the future. This text should be of use to science, engineering and computer science undergraduates (2nd and 3rd year), MSc students (taught courses), PhD students, engineers in industry and a wide range of people who use CD-ROM and other optical recording systems in their computers.
