25、the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of IS0 or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with part

26、icular fields of technical activity. IS0 and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with IS0 and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, IS0 and IEC have esta

27、blished a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. International St

28、andard ISO/IEC 15731 was prepared by ECMA (as Standard ECMA-248) and was adopted, under a special “fast-track procedure”, by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, in parallel with its approval by national bodies of IS0 and IEC. Annexes A, and B form an integral part of thi

29、s International Standard. Annexes C and D are for information only. IS0 and IEC draw attention to the fact that it is claimed that compliance with this International Standard may involve the use of patents concerning the Master Standard Reference Tape and Secondary Standard Reference Tape given in c

30、lause 4. IS0 and IEC take no position concerning the evidence, validity and scope of this patent right. The holder of this patent right has assured IS0 and IEC that he is willing to negotiate licences under reasonable and non- discriminatory terms and conditions with applicants throughout the world.

31、 In this respect, the statement of the holder of this patent right is registered with IS0 and IEC. Information may be obtained from: Sony Corporation Contracts and Licensing Division Tokyo international P.O. Box 5 100 Tokyo 100-3 1 Japan Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the element

32、s of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights other than those identified above. IS0 and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. . .

33、netic tape cassette for information interchange - Helical scan recording - DTF-1 format Section 1 - General 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the physical and magnetic characteristics of magnetic tape cassettes, using magnetic tape 12,65 mm wide so as to provide physical interchange of s

34、uch cassettes between drives. It also specifies the quality of the recorded signals, the recording method and the recorded format, called Digital Tape Format-l (DTF-I), thereby allowing data interchange between drives by means of such cassettes. The format supports variable length Logical Records, h

35、igh speed search, and the use of a registered algorithm for data compression. This International Standard specifies two sizes of cassette. For the purposes of this International Standard the larger cassette is referred to as Type L, and the smaller as Type S. Together with a standard for volume and

36、file structure, e.g. IS0 1001, this International Standard provides for full data interchange between data processing systems. 2 Conformance 2.1 Magnetic tape cassette A claim of conformance with this International Standard shall specify the Type of cassette. It shall be in conformance with this Int

37、ernational Standard if - the case meets all the requirements of clause 4 and clauses 6 to 10 for that Type - the recording on the tape meets the requirements of clauses 11 to 17 2.2 Generating system A claim of conformance with this International Standard shall specify which Type(s) of cassette is (

38、are) supported. A system generating a magnetic tape cassette for interchange shall be in conformance with this International Standard if all the recordings that it makes, meet the mandatory requirements of this International Standard. A claim of conformance with this International Standard shall sta

39、te whether or not one, or more, registered algorithm(s) is (are) implemented and, if so, the registered number(s) of (all) the implemented algorithm(s). 2.3 Receiving system A claim of conformance with this International Standard shall specify which Type(s) of cassette is (are) supported. A system r

40、eceiving a magnetic tape cassette for interchange shall be in conformance with this International Standard if it is able to handle any recording made on the tape according to this International Standard, and a claim of conformance shall state whether or not one, or more, registered algorithm(s) is (

41、are) implemented and, if so, the registered number(s) of (all) the implemented algorithm(s). 3 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard.
