A rewritable optical disk drive is described. The drive has a large storage capacity of 8.9 Gb/spindle with a few seconds of access time. It can store data economically in a small floor space, and it can be used as a supplement or partial alternative to magnetic disk drives or tape library units. The authors discuss the drive technologies, support software, and application of this subsystem.< >

The hardware and software design and implementation of the data acquisition and processing systems of a laser wavemeter being built at NASA Langley Research Center are described. The wavemeter acquires sets of CCD/photodiode array-image data, produced by three Fabry-Periot interferometers for a pair of laser pulses every 200 milliseconds. Each image contains 1766 pixels digitized to 12-bit resolution. The acquisition system is composed of three discrete A/D channels running at a 1-MHz conversion rate, three diode-array sensors and two 4 K*9 FIFOs. By taking advantage of the analog shift-register storage, capability of the array, two sets of data can be read in rapid succession (less than 400 microseconds is required between laser firings, but data can be acquired faster) from each array. All six images are sent in interleaved fashion to the flight recorder for postprocessing on the ground, and one selected pair of these images is processed in semi-real-time by an 80286-based single-board computer to calculate the wavelength of a pulsed multimode Alexandrite laser.< >

The authors describe potential services providing a market pull for broadband networks and recent technological advances providing a technology push. A long-term broadband network architecture is described that is based on a double star topology, optical transmission, and high-speed circuit and packet switching. Evolutionary paths for broadband network architectures are described whereby broadband network components and capabilities are introduced gradually, as they become available.< >

optical recording systems capable of information storage and retrieval, using a highly focused laser beam as the recording and playback source, have been developed to a point where product introduction in the immediate time frame is highly probable. The product potentials range from low-data-rate (10-20 Mb/s) single-disk (10**1**0 to 10**1**1 b) random-access electronic office filing cabinets (augmenting existing word processing units) to high-data-rate (hundreds of Mb/s) multidisk (10**1**3-b online jukebox) random-access archival mass memories. The authors present the basic features of these optical-disk datastorage and retrieval systems with particular emphasis on the recording source and recording media.

The use of optical-fiber-based local area network (LAN) technology to meet future needs for data connectivity in the 100-Mb/s-to-4-Gb/s range is addressed. The roles of greatly increased computer power, 3-D graphics, and advances in VLSI technology are examined. The advent of FDDI, ring protocols implemented in GaAs, and integrated optical transceivers are discussed.

A unified approach to designing and selecting data-acquisition systems involving multiple sensors, data preprocessing, and real-time presentation of data products is presented. An example of a system to monitor weather parameters, wave statistics, and spectrum characteristics in real time is presented. In particular, an analysis is given of the operating software of the data presentation and storage system which is used to collect all the sensor information and to make it available to the users.
