Welcome to ISOM/ODS 2002

20 years have passed since the commercialization of Compact Disc started in 1982. Nowadays, almost all of high performance personal computers install DVD-ROM and CD-R/RW drives. DVD players are widely used at homes in the world to enjoy movies or high quality music. DVD-RAM, DVD-RW and +RW have come onto market as affordable removable and erasable memories. 50mm MO cartridges have been developed and digital cameras that use the cartridges as removable memory are being sold in the market. 130mm MO cartridges with the capacity of 9.1GB have been developed for mass storage systems. 20 years ago there was only Compact Disc but at present various optical disks are developed and used for diversified purposes.

There is almost no doubt that new ideas and technologies that were presented at the past ISOMs and ODSs have contributed to current remarkable success of optical disks.

ISOM/ODS 2002 is the fourth joint international conference by ISOM and ODS. It will be held in Kailua-Kona on Hawaii, 7-11 July 2002. Welcome to ISOM/ODS 2002 in Hawaii and let us make new contributions to future optical memories and optical data storages.
