A File System For Write-Once Media

Operating Systems 2020-04-02 v1

Abstract

A file system standard for use with write-once media such as digital compact disks is proposed. The file system is designed to work with any operating system and a variety of physical media. Although the implementation is simple, it provides a a full-featured and high-performance alternative to conventional file systems on traditional, multiple-write media such as magnetic disks.
