Image base management system: a promising tool in the large office system environment

Published: 02 December 1987 Publication History

Abstract

Data base systems are now faced with a new application field---Image Based Systems. An "image" is simply a digitalized document page stored as a bit string. Applications in office automation include filing, large multimedia data bases, library storage and retrieval, and in science and medicine the recording and storage of satellite, geological and body scanner pictures. This paper defines the requirements for an architecture of an image base management system (IBMS) stored on large magnetic and optical disks and points out the problems introduced by the nonerasable constraint of optical disks. Suitable data structures and the main algorithms to manage an image base are discussed in details.
