MIL-HDBK-9660 Dod Produced Cd-Rom ProductsThis document was prepared by the Defense information Systems Agency DISA, in cooperation with the services and other activities within the Department of Defense DOD. The goal of this document is to provide information and guidelines to support the creation and interoperability of Compact Disc-Read Only Memory CD-ROM development and use within DOD. This document specifies core compact disc fundamentals for the DOD community. It is strongly recommended all DOD components comply with the fundamentals established within this document. Specialized functions within DOD may require expanded internal guidance to meet their own mission needs. All other Government entities are invited to use this document.

MIL-HDBK-9660B

tt. UDF - Universal Disk Format - UDF serves as the link between the underlying physical tracks and logical sectors to the top-level application. It was developed by OSTA as a practical subset of ISO/IEC 13346 that would be easier to market, yet still address how information is to be interchanged between different operating systems. CD-UDF defines the logical file format specification for packet writing on CD-R media. The DVD file structure is included in UDF.

uu. User - (ISO 9660) A person or other entity (for example, an application program) that causes the invocation of the services provided by an implementation.

vv. Volume - (ISO 9660) A dismountable CD-ROM.

ww. White Book - Specifications for how CD-i data is recorded on CD-ROM XA discs. The White Book is the basis for Compact Disc-Video (CD-V), which uses the Motion Pictures Experts Group (MPEG) video compression encoding and decoding.

xx. Yellow Book - Compact Disc-Read Only Memory (CD-ROM) specifications. The Yellow Book, the second phase of the CD industry introduced by Philips and Sony, describes the physical attributes for CD-ROM and CD-ROM XA (Extended Architecture). It expands on the Red Book specifications to include two new types of tracks: Mode-1 for text and computer data, and Mode-2 for compressed audio and video/picture data.
