LOGICAL UDF DESCRIPTORS

摘要

Descriptored information is stored in a file system according to a Uniform Disk Format Specification UDF. It accommodates storage of both data and descriptor items, through separating a descriptor item from the data through storing the former in a dedicated logical sector. In particular, the descriptor items are assigned to a dedicated and immediately accessible directory space. Within the directory space, successive logical sectors are mapped at mutual stepping distances that are a factor less than a physical sector size that is uniform among data and descriptor items.
