(Updated from time to time, please check version numbers.) The book for the course is DVD Demystified, by Jim Taylor, McGraw Hill, ISBN 0-07-064841-7; the book up-date web site is http://www.videodiscovery.com/vdyweb/dvd/dvdfaq.html. The Digital Video Disc (DVD) revolution is coming! For some brands of PCs, you can no longer buy a CD only drive, you must buy a DVD/CD player. This course provides a detailed overview of DVD technology, applications, and implications. While the same size as a compact disc, DVDs can store at least four times the digital data of a CD or at least 3.5 gigabytes--and up to 17 gigabytes--to store nine hours of digital video and/or audio. This new, high-density storage technology promises radical improvements in the quality and quantity of data access and manipulation for both business and entertainment. By encouraging the digital recording of all types of information, the DVD should accelerate the merging of numerous technologies, including PC and television; telephony, cable, and the Internet; home and office; and business and entertainment. This program looks at the overlap of DVD, DirecTV, DirecPC, cable networks, telephony, the Internet, and PCs. Storage issues are discussed as well. While the lectures cover technical issues, the program should appeal to students from both technical and non-technical backgrounds. Enrollment prior to the first class required. This course expands on DVD section of the regular Document Management, Document Imaging UCLA extension course which covers: the technology of scanning, importing, transmitting, organizing, indexing, storing, protecting, locating, retrieving, viewing, printing, and preserving documents for document imaging systems and digital libraries. The regular course also covers image and document formats, metadata, multimedia, rich text, PDF (Portable Document Format), GIS (Geographic Information Systems), CAD (Computer Aided Design), virtual reality indices, and image enabled databases will be discussed.
