Brief Contributions A Coding Approach for Detection of Tampering in Write-Once Optical Disks

چکیده
We present coding methods for protecting against tampering of write-once optical disks, which turns them into a secure digital medium for applications where critical information must be stored in a way that prevents or allows detection of an attempt at falsification. Our method involves adding a small amount of redundancy to a modulated sector of data. This extra redundancy is not used for normal operation, but can be used for determining, say, as a testimony in court, that a disk has not been tampered with.

متن کاملFast Text Access Methods for Optical and Large Magnetic Disks: Design and Performance Comparison
High capacity disks, especially optical ones, are commercially available. These disks are ideal for archiving large text data bases. In this work, we examine efficient searching techniques for such applications. We propose a unifying framework, which reveals the similarities between signature files and an inverted file using a hash table. Then, we design methods that combine the ease of inserti...

متن کاملThe integration of an optical and a thermal model for applications in optical recording
We consider optical disks consisting of several stacked layers, one of which is a recording layer which consists of a dye (for write once disks) or a phase-change material (for rewritable disks). Due to the illumination by a laser spot the temperature increases locally in the disk. The pulsing laser spot writes marks in the recording layer that represent the digitally encoded data. To guide the...
