The Digital Video Disc (DVD) revolution is coming! For some brands of PCs,
you can no longer buy a CD only drive, you must buy a DVD/CD player.  This
course provides a detailed overview of DVD technology, applications, and
implications. While the same size as a compact disc, DVDs can store at
least four times the digital data of a CD or at least 3.5 gigabytes--and up
to 17 gigabytes--to store nine hours of digital video and/or audio. This
new, high-density storage technology promises radical improvements in the
quality and quantity of data access and manipulation for both business and
entertainment. By encouraging the digital recording of all types of
information, the DVD should accelerate the merging of numerous
technologies, including PC and television; telephony, cable, and the
Internet; home and office; and business and entertainment. This program
looks at the overlap of DVD, DirecTV, DirecPC, cable networks, telephony,
the Internet, and PCs. Storage issues are discussed as well. While the
lectures cover technical issues, the program should appeal to students from
both technical and non-technical backgrounds. Enrollment prior to the first
class required.

This course expands on DVD section of the regular Document Management,
Document Imaging UCLA extension course which covers: the technology of
scanning, importing, transmitting, organizing, indexing, storing,
protecting, locating, retrieving, viewing, printing, and preserving
documents for document imaging systems and digital libraries.  The regular
course also covers image and document formats, metadata, multimedia, rich
text, PDF (Portable Document Format), GIS (Geographic Information Systems),
CAD (Computer Aided Design), virtual reality indices, and image enabled
databases will be discussed.  These regular topics will be covered briefly
as part of the description of DVD applications.
