Abstract

As the speed and capacity of advanced military computers increase, there is a growing need for fast high density memory systems. This report will detail work done at Sperry to develop a novel read/write head which will be used in a Write Once Read Many (WORM) optical disk memory system. The disk system will be used in a digital mapping unit for a tactical fighter aircraft which has extreme operating conditions.
