Abstract

The automated optical storage library made its debut in 1985 and is now commonly known as the "Optical Jukebox". Since then, every major optical storage device vendor has started to market such a device. This trend reflects the industry's recognition of a strong need for an enormous on-line storage system that will take into account all the attributes of optical storage technology. This paper describes the market needs, design requirements, technology trade-offs and applications of an automated optical storage library.
