Abstract :
The Kodak Optical Disk System 6800 features a two-sided quantized linear velocity disk with 6.8 GB of user capacity. The effective data rate (the throughput seen by the user at the host computer interface with the optical disk system) of the optical disk drive and automated disk library has been simulated for a variety of input parameters. Experimental data reveal that the simulations developed for the Kodak 6800 automated disk library systems can be used for general performance characterization or can be customized to determine the response to a specific application of a specific user.<>
