14、iography .25BS ISO 18938:2014ISO 18938:2014(E)ForewordISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each memb

15、er body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Ele

16、ctrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types

17、of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be hel

21、uctionIn addition to storage conditions, the proper care and handling of optical discs is also vital to prolonged disc life. This is becoming increasingly important as optical discs are widely used for the recording and storage of information. This International Standard gives guidelines for their r

22、ecommended care and handling and will be beneficial for all digital optical discs, regardless of their inherent stability.NOTE It is recognized that both “optical discs” and “optical disks” are acceptable spellings. In this International Standard, the former spelling is used.Probably no form of data

23、 storage has been accepted and adopted as rapidly as the optical disc. It has become the medium of choice for numerous applications with ever increasing use for the recording and storage of information. Information is recorded in digital format that not only provides high storage density, but also a

24、llows duplication without information loss, ease of data manipulation and facilitates transmission. It is of tremendous benefit for audio usage since it permits uninterrupted playback for long periods of time. Information in a disc format can be accessed very quickly, unlike that in a roll format su

25、ch as magnetic tape, which requires longer search time.While the advantages are many, as with other media, there are nevertheless concerns about the life expectancy of recorded information on optical discs. This depends upon three independent components, namely the permanence of the disc itself, the

26、 disc drive and the software. Obsolescence of the disc drive and software, lack of playback device or inoperability of the playback device are all serious uncertainties. Another important issue is the quality of the initial data recorded onto the disc, which needs to be as high as possible. In addit

27、ion, the very popularity of recordable optical discs has led to their wide availability, and wide variability in the quality of discs for long term preservation of information. Many discs may not be of sufficient quality for long term use.The finite life of optical discs is well recognized and one a

28、pproach to addressing this issue is by periodically transferring or reformatting the information. In addition, the ability to play back a disc in the future depends on the existence of functional playback equipment. As newer formats and equipment become popular, equipment manufacturers will probably

29、 discontinue production and support of the older, superseded equipment. Eventually, usable equipment to play obsolete optical disc formats will become difficult to find. Before this occurs, it is advisable that a migration plan be in place. However, these issues are outside the scope of this Interna

30、tional Standard, which is only concerned with the stability of the optical disc itself. A primary objective of those involved with the preservation of information on this media is to ensure that the disc is not the weak link among the necessary components. To support this objective, it is advisable

31、that steps be taken to maximize the optical discs potential to be more stable than either the hardware or the software.As with paper records, photographic film and magnetic tape, optical discs are subject to both damage and decay. They have a finite life. Predictions of the life expectancy of optica

32、l discs have involved extrapolations of property retention after high temperature and humidity incubations back to practical conditions. These extrapolations follow mathematical treatments that were developed for simpler chemical reactions, and therefore the results need to be interpreted with some

33、caution. Predictions cover a very wide range, from 25 years to over 250 years, which vary with the manufacturer and the disc type. Their effective life can be increased or decreased significantly depending upon the conditions under which they are stored. Storage recommendations for optical discs are

34、 given in ISO 18925. Following these recommendations promotes the physical integrity of the media and increases their effective life.vi ISO 2014 All rights reservedBS ISO 18938:2014Imaging materials Optical discs Care and handling for extended storage1 ScopeThis International Standard establishes ge

35、neral principles for the care and handling of digital optical discs during use. It addresses the issues of physical integrity of the medium necessary to preserve access to the recorded data (information). This International Standard includes recommendations for handling procedures to maximize the ef

36、fective life of optical discs. Faulty handling, packing and transporting techniques and methods often cause physical damage to the discs and to the content recorded thereon. Extending the longevity of optical discs requires the identification of appropriate handling methods, as well as well-develope

37、d and implemented training programs.For the purposes of this International Standard, the term “optical disc” includes the families of compact disc (CD), digital versatile disc (DVD), high definition digital versatile disc (HD DVD) and Blu-ray disc (BD)1), and any hybrids of these families. The term

38、“optical disc” also includes each type of disc within a family, including injection moulded read-only memory (ROM), dye-layer recordable (R) and phase change rewritable (RW, RE), random access memory (RAM), and recordable (BD-R) technologies.While some of the recommendations in this International St

39、andard (e.g. those for staff training) apply specifically to large-scale or long term usage, the basics of all recommendations in this International Standard are intended to be applied in circumstances where the desired result is long-term usage of the medium whether archival, commercial or personal

40、.This International Standard does not cover magneto-optical (MO) discs, laser discs (LD) or glass discs. At the time of writing, International Standards do not exist for HD DVD and Blu-ray discs. Nonetheless, it is believed that the recommendations in this International Standard for care and handlin

41、g can equally apply to them. It is recognized that some of these requirements are not necessarily possible for the individual user to achieve.The following are within the scope of this International Standard: use and handling environments, including pollutants, temperature and humidity and light exp

42、osure; contamination concerns; inspection; cleaning and maintenance, including cleaning methods and frequency; transportation; disasters, including water, fire, construction and post-disaster procedures; staff training.The quality of the data written on the disc is outside the scope of this Internat

43、ional Standard. However, a high quality result of the recording phase is important to the longevity of information. It is advisable that a rigorous program of data integrity testing be implemented, as this forms an obligatory part of all digital long-term storage. In addition, when keeping digital i

44、nformation for archival purposes, it is advisable that a multiple copy/multiple location strategy be in place.1) Blu-ray DiscTMand Blu-rayTMare trademarks of Blue-ray Disc Association, and Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD are examples of suitable products available commercially.
