Abstract

High data rates, low retrieval times, and simple implementation are presently shown to be obtainable by means of a motionless-head 2D parallel-readout system for optical disks. Since the optical disk obviates mechanical head motions for access, focusing, and tracking, addressing is performed exclusively through the disk''s rotation. Attention is given to a high-performance associative memory system configuration which employs a parallel readout disk.
