Abstract

PURPOSE:To make the work efficient, by providing a write and a readout mechanism which can be accessible to the entire area and independently operated for a magnetic recording medium. CONSTITUTION:A magnetic disc device 10 is formed with a magnetic recording medium 1, a write mechanism 5 which is accessible to the entire area of the medium 1 and consists of a write interface 2, a write control section 3 and a write head 4, a readout mechanism 9 which is accessible to the entire area of the medium 1 and consists of a readout interface 6, a readout control section 7, and a readout head 8, and each part constituting the write mechanism 5 and each part constituting the readout mechanism 9 can be operated entirely independently without binding each part. Thus, the workability can be improved for mutual simultaneous interpretation.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a magnetic disk device constituting an information processing system, and more particularly to a data access method in the magnetic disk device.

Conventionally, in this type of storage device, it is not possible to write and read information independently, so when performing simultaneous interpretation using a computer system, it is necessary to first write the original text and then read it. Only one of the actions of rendering the written original text into a eulogistic translation can be performed at the same time, and for this purpose, the speech or translation work must be temporarily stopped and the other action in progress must be completed. The disadvantage is that it is necessary.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional circumstances, and
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a write mechanism and a read mechanism that can operate independently and access the entire area of a medium, and to enable a computer system to perform write and read operations asynchronously and in parallel. To provide a novel magnetic disk device that eliminates the need for temporary suspension of speech and translation operations while simultaneously arranging the original text and reading the original text for translation during simultaneous interpretation.

That is, the magnetic disk device according to the present invention is configured to have a writing mechanism and a reading mechanism that can access the entire area of the medium and can operate independently.

Next, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, a magnetic disk device 10 according to the present invention includes:
The magnetic recording medium 1 and the entire area of the magnetic recording medium 1 can be accessed. , has a readout mechanism D consisting of a readout interface base, a readout control unit, and a readout head t, and each part constituting the writing machine @2 and each part constituting the readout mechanism t are completely unrelated to each other, and therefore , the writing mechanism S and the reading mechanism t are configured to be able to operate completely independently without being bound to each other.

When performing simultaneous interpretation on a computer system, the writing mechanism I records the original text through the writing interface of the magnetic disk device 10 according to the present invention, and at the same time, the reading mechanism 9 records the translation through the continuous interface 1. Perform the operation of reading the original text in the light of .

By doing this, recording of the original text and reading of the original text for translation rounding can be performed completely independently without interfering with each other. It is possible to avoid having to wait to read out an original text that has already been written, or, conversely, to avoid having to wait until the successive operation is finished while reading an original text that has already been written. Simultaneous interpretation can be performed without having to pause the translation process or the speaker's speech.

As explained above, the present invention has the effect that writing and reading operations can be performed independently and simultaneously by providing a single magnetic disk device with mutually independent writing and reading mechanisms. .
