Standalone CD-ROM Copiers

The operational details of stand-alone CD-rom copiers are similar to those of automatic CD copiers. The only difference between the two is the difference between the CD and the CD-rom.

CD-rom means CD-Read only memory (ROM). No additional data can be written on these CDs once they are recorded. The recording of CD-ROMs is done by the vendor and is known as stamping. However, the data from these CDs can be written on other blank CDs using a CD-rom copier, provided the necessary software is available.

CD-rom copiers work on the technology called "pits and hills." CD-ROMs are coated with an organic layer of dye. When the CD-ROMs are written, the data is encoded on them by burning specific parts of the organic dye coating. These parts are called pits and the remaining parts are called hills. While burning, a laser head reads the pits and hills and then burns the corresponding regions on the blank CDs. This results in the same data getting transferred onto the blank CDs.

The CD-rom drives are rated with a speed factor relative to music CDs: 1x or 1-speed provides a data transfer rate of 150 kilobytes per second in the most common data format. For example, an 8x CD-rom data transfer rate would be 1.2 megabytes per second.

CD-rom copiers may be attached to a computer or they may be stand-alone. stand-alone CD-ROMs have a hard disc of their own. These CD-rom copiers are designed in a tower format. stand-alone CD-rom copiers may allow several CDs to be burned at once and may contain as many as 2 to 16 unitary drives and can have speeds as high as 52X.

So, if the requirement is to copy a master CD into several CD-ROMs, a high-end stand-alone CD-rom copier may be the best solution.

The Eight Fold Path of Meditation - Patanjali's Ashtanga Yoga

The Latin word for meditation is 'mederi' which means 'to heal'. To meditate is to develop an understanding of your inner self, to know yourself better, so that you can improve your life, by watching yourself as a witness to control anger and be more retrospective towards your behaviour and relationship with others.

  • meditation is getting in touch with your inner self.
  • The dictionary defines meditation as continuous and profound contemplation or musing on a subject or series of subjects of a deep or abstruse nature; "the habit of meditation is the basis for all real knowledge" .
  • meditation is a way of life.
  • meditation is getting in touch with the vast reservoir of energy within us.
  • meditation is a state of being.
  • To me, meditation is thoughtlessness.
  • Gurumaa says that meditation is being aware.

However, experience says that real meditation cannot occur without the grace of the master. meditation starts with repetition of mantra and concentration of breath. Once the seeker starts meditating regularly, the mantra slowly fades out and the breathing becomes so slow that keeping count of it becomes difficult.

According to doctors, the best stress relief technique is meditation. Many patients have been cured of their mental as well as physical problems by meditation and related breathing techniques.

The eight-fold path of yoga as described by sage Patanjali leads to meditation. The first one is yama which is social behaviour which tells us to be non-violent, truthful and honest, not to steal, not to be lustful or possessive. niyama i.e. discipline tells us to be pure, content, austere, study the sacred texts and live with the awareness of the divine. The next point is asana, where we must learn to sit erect so that the energy generated within us can move up the spinal cord from the muladhara chakra towards the head. Once asana has been mastered, we go on to pranayama or controlling or balancing the breath. After the breath is controlled, pratyahara or withdrawal of the senses occurs. Dharana allows the mind to fix itself on an object or sound or within oneself. Uninterrupted meditation is known as dhyana which is the next step. Samadhi, the eighth and final step is the very goal of meditation, which is absolute bliss and union with God. In Samadhi, one realizes the pure consciousness and unites with the absolute.

CDPD - Cellular Digital Packet Data (An Introduction)

Cellular digital Packet data (CDPD) systems was one of the previous advanced wireless data transmission technology. Generally used as a tool for business, law enforcement communications and operations. but after the introduction of gprs Technology on the mobile networking, all the hopes around CDPD technology diminished. Today this protocol is only exist as a memory.

about CDPD

CDPD is a specification for supporting wireless access to the internet and other public packet-switched networks. data transmitted on the CDPD systems travel several times faster than data send using analog networks. CDPD is an open specification that adheres to the layered structure of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. CDPD supports both the Internet's Connectionless Network Protocol (CLNP).

features

  • 19.2 kbps raw data transfer rate
  • Full duplex transceiver
  • 600 mW transmit power
  • Integrated TCP/IP protocol stack
  • Proven technology
  • compact size
  • Rugged aluminum case
  • LEDs show status of CDPD operation
  • Mounting brackets
This features are very low rated on today. but belive me this was one of the most top rated on its time.

application Interfaces

Standard interfaces include:

  • AT command serial character streams (uses embedded TCP/IP stack)
  • host TCP/IP stack communicates with Raven using SLIP
  • windows 95/98/NT dial-Up networking communicates with Raven using PPP
In addition, several protocol conversions (Modbus, Opto22, BSAP) have been implemented to allow hosts to communicate with RTUs over CDPD without modifying the host or remote software.

working of CDPD
CDPD network implements a technique called channel hopping. The way this works is that when a CDPD mobile data unit desires to initiate data transmission, it will check for availability of a cellular channel. Once an available channel is located, the data link is established. As long as the assigned cellular channel is not needed for voice communications, the mobile data unit can continue to transmit data packet bursts on it.
