26、Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form thespecialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in thedevelopment of International Standards through technical committees established by the

27、respective organization to deal withparticular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Otherinternational organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.In the field of informa

28、tion technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. DraftInternational Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as anInternational Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bod

29、ies casting a vote.This International Standard was prepared by ECMA (as ECMA-246) and was adopted, under a special “fast-track procedure”,by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, in parallel with its approval of national bodies of ISOand IEC.Annexes A to G form an integral

30、 part of this International Standard. Annexes H to K are for information only.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/IEC ISO/IEC 15780:1998(E)1Information technology 8 mm wide magnetic tape cartridge Helical scanrecording AIT-1 formatSection 1 - General1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies the physical a

31、nd magnetic characteristics of an 8 mm wide magnetic tape cartridge toenable physical interchange of such cartridges between drives. It also specifies the quality of the recorded signals, therecording method and the recorded format - called Advanced Intelligent Tape No. 1 (AIT-1) - thereby allowing

32、datainterchange between drives by means of such magnetic tape cartridges.Information interchange between systems also requires, at a minimum, agreement between the interchange parties upon theinterchange code(s) and the specifications of the structure and labelling of the information on the intercha

The tape requirements shall be satisfied throughout the extent of the tape.2.2 Generating driveA drive generati

34、ng a magnetic tape cartridge for interchange shall be in conformance with this International Standard if allrecordings on the tape meet the mandatory requirements of this International Standard, and if either or both methods ofappending and overwriting are implemented.A claim of conformance shall st

35、ate which of the following optional features are implemented and which are not the performing of a Read-After-Write check and the recording of any necessary repeated frames; the generation of ECC3 Frames.In addition a claim of conformance shall state whether or not one, or more, registered algorithm

36、(s) are implemented within the system and are able to compress datareceived from the host prior to collecting the data into Basic Groups, and the registered identification number(s) of the implemented compression algorithm(s).2.3 Receiving driveA drive receiving a magnetic tape cartridge for interch

37、ange shall be in conformance with this International Standard if it is ableto handle any recording made on the tape according to this International Standard. In particular it shall be able to recognise repeated frames, and to make available to the host, data and Separator Marks from only one of thes

38、eframes; be able to recognise multiple representations of the same Basic Group, and to make available to the host, data andSeparator Marks from only one of these representations; be able to recognise an ECC3 frame, and ignore it if the system is not capable of using ECC3 check bytes in a process ofe

39、rror correction; be able to recognise processed data within an Entity, identify the algorithm used, and make its registered identificationnumber available to the host; be able to make processed data available to the host.In addition a claim of conformance shall state whether or not the system is cap
