- the rewritable area given the recordable attribute only once (first time) is in the unrecorded state. It can be distributed to users as it is, and can be distributed as a pseudo-write-once medium, allowing users to record only once (first time). In this case, after the user performs recording once (initial recording), rewriting becomes impossible. In other words, even if the rewritable area is physically rewritable, it functions as an unrecorded write-once medium for the user. If the factory or the software creator records the data in this one-time recordable area and distributes it to the user, it is still impossible to write on the user side, so it can be used as a read-only area.

- the ROM or RAM area itself can be regarded as a track in the CD format as a whole, and when a session is formed in accordance with the multisession format specification of the CD, the session is used. It can be regarded as one unit.
- a bucket which is not necessarily a fixed number of fixed-length blocks, can be regarded as one data unit. These are not fixed in individual data capacity! / Is an example of a variable length data unit.
- user data is divided into 2n bytes (512, 102, 4, 2k, 4k, 16k, 32k, 64k, ..., bytes, etc.). Redundant data such as parity bits for errors are added to make the logical minimum basic data unit.

It is desirable that the signal be described with an impossible signal. Record Dora If the drive side is designed to record data having a predetermined attribute at a predetermined address in accordance with the data attribute information, it is not possible for the user to easily change the data attribute. This is because the risk of being destroyed by overwriting by phase change recording is reduced.
- the non-rewritable signal here can also be achieved by forming physical deformation such as groove deformation on the substrate by injection molding, but if it is “user-unrewritable”, phase change recording May be used as the recording signal.
- a recording signal that cannot be rewritten on the user side is a signal that cannot be rewritten from the user side by special processing such as encryption.

- the ROM signal consisting of the pre-pit string and the recorded signal in the RAM area by phase change recording can be decoded by the same logic circuit using the same modulation method.
- the recording signals in both areas have substantially the same reflectance and modulation degree.

- PCA is a test write area for determining the optimum recording power
- PMA is a temporary file management information recording area specific to CD-R and CD-RW
- the lead-in area is originally a CD-ROM format.
- the area for recording file management information and disk management information called TOC (Table of Content), and the lead-out area are used to indicate the end of EFM data, and the program area records user data.
- the program area has both a read-only area and a rewritable area. In order to maintain reproduction compatibility with the conventional CD-ROM, it is necessary to record predetermined information in the lead-in and lead-out areas.
- the region from the start end B of the PCA region to the end end D of the lead-out region is covered with the same phase change medium. More specifically, it has the layer configuration described with reference to FIG.
- this optical information recording medium is an area covered with a phase-change medium and having a read-only area having six layers and a read-only area, and an area covered with a phase-change medium and having six layers.
- the rewritable area has the same layer structure as that of FIG. 1, and has a rewritable area in which information can be rewritten.
- the rewritable area has a meandering guide groove 50 provided to guide laser light as shown in FIG. 1 (a). Is provided.
- the program area There are two types of areas for implementing the partial ROM function in the program area. One is to use a pre-pit row (a row of pits formed beforehand) by the concave portions 49 formed in advance on the substrate 110f. This area is where data is recorded and a recording layer 110e is provided on a substrate 110f (master ROM area). The other area is an area (post ROM area) where the recording drive device is prohibited from rewriting data in a part of the area after recording data as a mark in the recording layer 110d.
- a pre-pit row a row of pits formed beforehand
- This area is where data is recorded and a recording layer 110e is provided on a substrate 110f (master ROM area).
- the other area is an area (post ROM area) where the recording drive device is prohibited from rewriting data in a part of the area after recording data as a mark in the recording layer 110d.
- address information and a synchronization signal expressed in absolute time by the guide groove are provided.
- (AT IP information, absolute time in pregroove) is desirable. Absolute time The wrist is expressed in minutes, seconds, and frames with 1Z75 seconds as the minimum unit (frame).
- the AT IP starts from 0 minute 0 second 0 frame (hereinafter referred to as 00:00:00) and continues up to 79:59:74 frame at the maximum.
- the maximum AT IP address of the program area can change.
- the program area shifts to the lead-out area at point C in FIG. 4 (a).
- the AT IP address in the lead-out area increases continuously, taking over the last AT IP address in the program area. Usually, the length of the lead-out area is about 112 minutes.
- the PCA, PMA, and lead-in areas are located from point B to point A in Fig. 4 (a).

- the attribute of rewritable or read-only is defined in at least one of three layers of an AT IP frame, an EFM frame, and data in block units of about 2 kbytes. Is preferred. This is because it is related to the smallest unit of data that can be manipulated in a CD-ROM system, and allows data attributes to be defined at lower levels.
- the attribute of being rewritable further has an attribute of whether or not rewriting is possible (only once or only the first time) and an attribute of whether or not rewriting is repeated. That is, in the most preferable mode, at least one of the above three layers is write-protected (for reproduction only), is recordable only once (only for the first time) (functions as a post-ROM area after recording), and is rewritable. (Repetitive rewriting is possible).
- the write-protect (reproduction-only) attribute prohibits overwriting the master ROM or post-ROM data and declares that it is to be treated as read-only data.
- An attribute that can be rewritten only once can record user data only once at the address given the attribute, except for the recording at the time of formatting, which will be described later. Achieving R disk, CD-RW disk This is effective to prevent data tampering in the system.
- conditional reproducible means, for example, data that cannot be reproduced unless a predetermined code or the like is input.
- conditionally rewritable means that recording cannot be performed unless, for example, a predetermined code is input.
- CD-RW there are at least three layers as a method of adding address data. This is related to the basic data unit that defines a chunk of data in the CD format. That is, since an address is added for each basic unit of data, it is natural that data attribute information is also added for each basic unit of address data, and it is necessary to use the redundancy of the address information data bits. preferable. Well, as the hierarchy of address assignment
- This method is applied at the lowest level and is pre-formed on the board.
- a read-only area or an area that can be rewritten only once is defined by the shape to be formed. Specifically, the AT IP information described in the page is used.
- the AT IP information has a minimum address unit (frame) of 1/75 second and the spatial frequency of groove meandering is 22.05 kHz, so that one frame includes 294 meanders. Also, since one frame contains 42 bits of information, one bit corresponds to every seven periods. In other words, frequency modulation (FM modulation) of ⁇ 1 kHz is performed every seven cycles, depending on whether the data is 0 or 1.
- the ATIP information 42 bits include absolute time information and accompanying error correction information, as well as synchronization bits for decoding the data.

- the present invention proposes to assign a special (Ml, S1, F1) combination, which has not been defined in the program area, to the attribute information of the AT IP frame.
- This method is excellent as a method that can be implemented without greatly compromising the compatibility.
- the AT is determined.
- Data corresponding to the IP frame is determined to be rewritable data as before. If (0, 0, 1), (0, 1, 0), (0, 1, 1), the attributes of the AT IP frame can be defined.

- the push-pull signal of the pre-pit can be easily reproduced as the wobble signal and ATIP information just like the wobble signal due to the meandering groove, and no special circuit is required.
- FIG. 6 is a flowchart for writing a file using ATIP.
- the optical head is moved to a predetermined address (step A1), and the ATIP is decoded (step A2). Then, in step A3, it is determined whether or not the specific address has been reached. If the specific address has not been reached, a No route is taken, and the processing from step A1 is repeated. On the other hand, if the specified address has been reached, a Yes route is taken, and (Ml, S1, F1) is determined in step A5.
- step A5 the attribute of the AT IP frame is determined by (Ml, S1, F1). If this attribute is write-protected, a write-protected route is taken. In step A6, the attribute is determined to be a read-only attribute. In step A7, an error message is sent. The optical head moves to another address, and the processing from step A1 is repeated. If it is rewritable in step A5, a rewritable route is taken.In step A9, it is determined that the attribute is rewritable. In step A10, writing is started, and in step A11, the writing routine ends. .
- a step A9 for moving the optical head to another address is provided, but the step A7 for sending the error message is provided. Can also be terminated.
- the recording drive since the write-protected attribute is recorded in the AT IP signal, the recording drive always decodes the AT IP address when accessing the predetermined address. As soon as the combination of B is detected, measures such as stopping the power of the recording laser beam can be taken, and the routine can be shifted to the routine of abnormal processing.
- the playback system such as a CD-ROM drive
- the playback system usually obtains address information only from the subcode recorded by the EFM signal, so that the playback system receives the above-mentioned irregular AT IP information. Is not affected. Also, it will not affect playback on existing CD-ROM drives.
- the firmware internal program for drive control
- the firmware needs to be changed only on the recording system side, but such a change only requires rewriting the program as a version upgrade of the device driver on the recording device side. This is preferable because no change in drive hardware is required.
- the mixed ROM area and RAM area can be logically linked by using the bit value of (Ml, S1, F1). And seamless file management.
- the master ROM area can be created by the pre-pit string to which the write-protect (attribute-only) attribute has been added by ATIP, and the write-protection can be reliably performed.
- a write-protected (playback-only) attribute is assigned to a part of the unrecorded rewritable area in AT IP, and only a factory or software creator can use a special recording drive device that can ignore the write-protected process. If data is recorded and edited, a general user's recording drive device can create a post ROM area that functions as ROM data. Then, a rewritable attribute is given only to the remaining rewritable area so that the user can use it as a RAM area.
- the three types of data areas of the master ROM, post ROM and RAM can be mixedly mounted on the same disk.
- the rewritable area given the recordable attribute only once (first time) by the AT IP can be used as a pseudo write-once medium on the user side, and the master ROM area on the user side. Can be created.

After that, it is divided into 24 bytes x 98 rows, and parity correction bits and sub-codes for error correction are added to each row, and EFM modulation is performed. Each line is called an EFM frame.
- User data consisting of 2352 bytes is called a main channel and is divided into a matrix of 24 bytes x 98 rows. When each line is divided every 12 bytes, it becomes data corresponding to the left and right channels of the stereo music data. After additional error correction bits are attached to each row, 8-bit data called subcode is added. In other words, the address and data attribute information are added to the block of 2352 bytes by the 8-bit X98 additional data.

Here, X may be either 0 or 1. The provisions for item numbers 1 to 6 are already used in the current standard. Table 1 CONTROL bit assignments
- item numbers 1 and 2 relate to the attributes of the audio signal, respectively. Furthermore, as can be seen from item numbers 5 and 6, the SC 1 bit cannot be used, regardless of the other attributes of the data, since it is assigned to the designation of digital copying prohibited Z permission.

- user data is dummy data, and only subcode information is used for system control purposes.
- the lead-in area and the lead-out area are all formatted in the bucket structure shown in FIG.
- the structure of the subcode Q channel is exactly the same as the structure shown in Fig. 8, but the lower 92 bits also include file management information for each session ⁇ session attribute information and the like.
- the subcode Q channel of the lead-in area has four CONT ROL bits similar to those shown in FIG.
- the method described in (A2) above can be applied as it is.
- a CD-RW disc has a RAM area even partially, and the contents of the user data area are rewritable, it is desirable that the read-in area be rewritable. Since the PMA area temporarily stores file management information like the lead-in, it is desirable to use RAM data. Further, the trial writing area PCA must be in the RAM area by its nature.
- information indicating that the CD-RW is a P-ROM is included in the lead-in area, where the drive first accesses to get information about the disc.
- the file management information in the ROM area is also erased by a simple erasing operation described later to prevent the existence of the ROM area from being recognized.
- the lead-in area exists on the inner side of the program area AC as shown by AB in FIG.
- a read-in may exist in the program area AC in a multi-session format disc
- the lead-in in the first session still exists on the inner side of the program area AC, and information relating to the entire disc is stored in the first area. It will be listed in the session lead-in.
- the lead-in area of the first session will be simply referred to as the lead-in area, unless otherwise specified, including the case of a single session.
- Special Information For unrecorded CD-RW discs, special information (Special Information) including disc attributes and recording conditions is described in the lead-in area by the AT IP having the data structure shown in Fig. 5.
- the sub-type of the disk is the remaining 3 bits of the 1 byte (byte 22c in Fig. 5) that describes the frame information, excluding F1 among the 4 bits that represent the upper digit in BCD. (Indicated by XXX in Fig. 5). Eight provisions are possible, but are undecided at this time, and it is possible to assign a subtype of a CD-RW disc called a P-ROM disc in the future.
- the information indicating the P-ROM is also recorded in the EFM data of the lead-in area.
- the information indicating the P-ROM is also recorded in the EFM data of the lead-in area.
- the subcode Q channel also has the data structure of FIG. 8 in the lead-in area, but the contents of the data described in the lead-in area are slightly different.
- the AT IP Special Information (special information) 1 is used, the content is always recorded in a specific bit of the remaining 92 bits of the subcode Q channel shown in FIG. Is supposed to be.
- Such recording such as copying the ATIP special information in the read-in area to the subcode of the EFM signal, has already been performed by a commercially available CD-RW recording / reproducing drive.
- a commercially available CD-RW recording / reproducing drive When a P-ROM type CD-RW disc is used, the pre-pit is used to recognize that the recording drive is a P-ROM and not to destroy the file management information of the ROM data. If there is a master ROM area, it is preferable to record it on the disk using AT IP special information.
- the data in the RAM area is given a recordable attribute only once using the AT IP, EFM subcode, and block attributes, and is used only for recording and playback.
- the PROM it is preferable that information indicating the PROM is described in the lead-in area only by the EFM data.
- the sub-type information of the Q channel disc of the above subcode may be recorded as an attribute P_ROM.
- sub-codes in the program area to define data attributes for the purpose of the present invention has certain limitations in drive design, but in the lead-in area at the innermost circumference, the disk is In the multi-session format, it is preferable to use the sub-type to specify the attributes of each session and to specify the attributes for each session in the multi-session, and it can be used positively. .
- Fig. 14 is a flow chart of attribute determination for each session in the case of multi-session, in which the attribute information of P-ROM is described in the lead-in, and in the case of multi-session, the write attribute for each session.
- step Ml the disc is loaded into the recording / reproducing apparatus, and after reaching a predetermined number of revolutions, the focus and tracking servo of the recording / reproducing optical head are achieved, Can be reproduced. Usually, at this stage, it is recognized that the disc is not a CD, CD-ROM, or CD-R disc but a CD-RW disc based on information such as reflectance. Then, in step M2, the optical head accesses the lead-in area. Further, in step M3, the special information recorded in the lead-in area by the sub-code of the ATP information or the EFM signal is decoded, and the acquisition of the disc management information such as the disc type and the recommended recording conditions is started.
- step M4 disc type information is obtained. Then, a part of the special information, more specifically, for example, from the special information 1 described above (see the description using FIG. 5), it is recognized that the disc is a PROM type and has a read-only area. Is done. Thus, in step M5, it is determined whether the disc is a multisession. Here, if the acquired information is a P-ROM and a multi-session, the lead-in of each session is sequentially accessed in Step M6 through Yes No rate, and in Step M7, the lead-in is performed. In step M8, the start and end addresses of the program area of each session (lead-out start address), the size of the session, and the If it is read-only or recorded, file management information is obtained. Normally, the information is obtained in order from the session arranged on the inner circumference side. In step M9, the flow passes through the No route until the last session is confirmed. Is repeated.
- step M5 the program goes through the No route in step M5, and the file management information of the program area is obtained in step M10.
- the step of storing the attribute information for each session of the disc type and the multi-session in the multi-session and then storing the attribute information in the temporary storage memory in the recording / reproducing apparatus is not specified.
- Information ⁇ Attribute information for each session is also stored in the temporary storage memory each time, so that in subsequent operation of the recording / reproducing apparatus, it is not necessary to re-read the information from the disk every time. It is normal that there is.
- a part of the management information is stored in the host computer connected to the recording / reproducing apparatus as well as the temporary storage memory in the recording / reproducing apparatus. And stored in the memory in the host computer. It is used for application programs installed on the host computer that use the recording and playback device.
- step Ml1 the optical head accesses the PCA area in step Ml1 through the Yes route from step M9, and in step Ml2, acquires in step M3. Based on the disc management information thus obtained, test writing is performed to determine the optimum recording power.
- step M13 a standby state is entered until a specific recording / reproduction command is issued.
- Step Ml1 and step Ml2 may be performed immediately after step M3, respectively, or there is a specific instruction to start writing, and the process exits from the standby state step Ml3. It may be performed immediately before shifting to recording.
- CD-RW there is a method of erasing RAM data called a simple erase operation.
- the file management information which is RAM data in the lead-in area or PMA area, is erased or rewritten to meaningless data (repeated zeros).
- This is an erasure method that makes the existence invisible.
- the existence of a given file can be deleted without deleting the contents of the file.
- the operation may be performed for each file or for each session, but if the information in the innermost lead-in area is deleted or rewritten on the disk, the disk appears to be a completely unrecorded new one. It has the convenience of being used as a disc.
- the simple erase operation erroneously performs the ROM operation. It may erase the existence of the data file itself and make it inaccessible again. In particular, even though the contents of the file exist in the master ROM, there is a possibility that the file cannot be accessed, and the significance of providing the master ROM area is lost. Alternatively, data may be overwritten without recognizing the master ROM area as a ROM area.
- a write-protected data attribute is added so that the ROM data is not directly overwritten and erased, and a measure for preventing the erasure of the ROM data due to a malfunction in the simple erase operation is also taken. It is preferred to apply.
- FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing an example of a simple erasing method in a P-ROM.
- the disc is a rewritable compact disc having a read-only area.
- identification information that is described in advance as a pre-pit or groove deformation on the substrate and indicates that the recording medium is a rewritable type including a read-only area partially including a pre-pit row or groove deformation is recognized. (Recognition step).
- step N3 attribute information is extracted and obtained from each of the lead-in areas in a plurality of sessions (extraction step), and in step N4, an attribute relating to rewritable or write (write) prohibition is obtained from the attribute information. Sex is determined.
- step N4 the file management information (file structure) of the write-protection session is extracted in step N5 through the Yes route. , Acquired and transferred to the temporary storage memory (memory transfer step).
- the file management information includes all information such as start and end addresses of the ROM session, addresses of files described in a program area in the session, and the like. Then, this step is repeated until the last session.
- file management information is obtained in step N5 and stored in the temporary storage memory for each session. If the attribute determined in step N4 is not write-protection (playback only), the process proceeds to step N6 via the No route.
- step N6 If it is confirmed in step N6 that the attribute confirmation has been completed up to the final session, the route goes through the Yes route, and in step N7, the lead-in area and the PMA area in the first (first) session are set. Access is made and all the file management information recorded in the area is erased (erase step). As a result, apparently, there is no file in the program area, whether it is read-only or rewritable, and the entire program area is recognized as unrecorded. If the session is not the final session, the process from step N3 is repeated through the No route of step N6.
- step N8 the file management information (start Z end address, etc.) of the write-protected session transferred to the temporary storage device is re-registered in the lead-in area and the PMA area in the first (first) session. Then, in step N10, the head address of the rewritable area and the recordable capacity are updated (re-recording step), and the process ends (step N11).
- step N2 If the disc is a normal CD-RW consisting of only a rewritable area, the process goes through the No route from step N2, and in step N9, as in step N7, all of the lead-in and PMA areas are read. The file management information is erased, and in step N10, all recordable areas are re-registered as newly rewritable.
- step N1 to step N6 are executed in the first stage (see step Ml) when the disc is loaded into the recording / reproducing apparatus, as shown in FIG. Is obtained and stored in the temporary recording memory.
- step Ml the steps from step N1 to step N6 are executed in the first stage (see step Ml) when the disc is loaded into the recording / reproducing apparatus, as shown in FIG. Is obtained and stored in the temporary recording memory.
- steps Nl, N3 and N5 Information to be obtained may be obtained from the temporary storage memory.
- the data erasing method for a rewritable phase-change recording medium of the present invention is directed to a recording medium in which a phase-change recording layer is provided on a substrate and an information recording area has a read-only area and a rewritable area. It is.
- the data structures to be recorded in the program area can be broadly classified as follows: 660 format and UDF (universal 'disk. Format'). There are two types of fixed-length bucket recording formats specified in version 1.5.
- the ISO 9660 format originally specifies the procedure for file management information of a read-only CD-ROM (yellow book), and is not so suitable for rewritable file management. In other words, it is assumed that a specific file exists on a fixed, continuous address on the disk, and is randomly accessible like a hard disk, and has a packet (data called a sector or cluster). It is unsuitable for the data structure recorded for each (the smallest unit of). However, it is a widely used format that can be played from a CD-ROM drive.
- UDF version 1.5 and multi-read format are a subset of the international standard for file structure called ISO 13340, which is a US industry organization OSTA (Optical Storage Technology).
- ISO 13340 which is a US industry organization OSTA (Optical Storage Technology).
- OSTA Optical Storage Technology
- the bucket structure shown in Fig. 10 is usually used as the structure of fixed-length packet recording.
- This format defines the file management information on a disk as a particularly accessible CD-RW or equivalent virtual logical device, facilitates file management from the host computer, and ensures compatibility. It is specified for the purpose.
- the program area is divided into two sessions according to the multi-session format, and the first session is a ROM area, the second session is a RAM area, or the first session is a RAM, and the second session is a ROM.
- It is a medium that has a logical structure as an area.
- the file management method in each session is all the same. It is desirable.
- the current Orange Book states that if the file management method in each session is standardized in the ISO 9660 format or UDF format, it may be different between sessions. Different sessions can be viewed as virtually separate disks.
- a P-ROM medium data of an application program is reproduced from a session which is a ROM as described later, a predetermined process is executed based on the program, and the result is immediately recorded in a session which is a RAM.
- Such interactive use is assumed, and access for data reproduction / recording can be frequently performed between a session which is a ROM and a session which is a RAM.
- One method is to write a device driver program that enables file management in UDF in the first session as ROM data in ISO 9660 format, and when the disc is loaded into a recording / reproducing device, the device It reads the driver and enables reading and writing of UDF format data, and is suitable for such usage.
- the first session constitutes the ROM area and the second session constitutes the RAM area, and has the structure shown in Fig. 12 (a), with the ROM area in ISO 9660 format and the RAM area in UDF format. Therefore, it is used as a fixed-length packet recording area.
- Fig. 12 (a) it is easier to follow the file management method of ISO 9660 format than to set the first session to ISO 9660. Because This is because ISO 9660 first obtains information on the logical address 16 located at the beginning of the program area. Normally, the first position of the logical address corresponds to one block length of the CD-ROM format.
- the first session is a ROM area
- the second session is a RAM area
- the first session is written in ISO 9660 format
- the second session is a UDF Written by Format (version 1.5).
- a lead-in area and a lead-let area are provided for each session in accordance with the definition of the writing method using the multi-session method.
- the start address of the unrecorded area after the second session which is the RAM area, is recorded in the PMA.
- the first session that has been treated in this way is recognized as a closed session, and is recognized as a read-only area that cannot be rewritten according to the multi-session rules. Therefore, if the above-mentioned ROM data attribute is assigned to the data of the first session in AT IP frames, sub-codes or blocks, and if the first session is closed, double rewriting prohibition measures were taken on the system. This means that the reliability of ROM data destruction prevention is improved.
- the following data recording method becomes possible. That is, usually, after accessing the data attribute information of the read-only area, a transfer step of transferring the program data recorded in the executable form to the read-only area to an external computer; Executing the program data to record the data in the rewritable area.
- FIG. 16 is a flowchart showing an example of an operation for automatically executing ROM data.
- a recording / reproducing device is connected to a host computer whose operating system is Windows (a product name of Microsoft Corporation), It is a flowchart for explaining such automatic execution operation.
- step P 1 the standby state step Ml 3 after the flow up to step Ml 2 in FIG. 14 is executed is defined as step P 0 in FIG. 16.
- step P 2 the file management information of the first session, which is a read-only area, There the c Wi nd ow s is obtained according to the procedure of I S09660, the root directory is searched in step P 2, a If there is a file with the name “autorun.inf”, the file is transferred to the host computer in step P3 via the Yes route, and the program specified in the file is automatically executed in step P4. Start up and execute (execution step). If autorun.inf points to another executable program file, and it is diverted, it transfers the specified file to the host computer and executes it.
- step P5 The execution of the series of programs ends in step P5. Return to 0. If a file named autorun.inf does not exist in the root directory, the process returns to step Ml 3 in FIG. 14 and enters a standby state. If there is no file named autorun.inf in step P2, the process from step P0 is repeated through the No route.
- the ISO 9660 format is important for maintaining compatibility with CD-ROM, the most widespread and most commonly shipped optical disk system shipped in computers. Especially in the case of a bootable program in which the data in the ROM area is automatically read into the host computer and executed, complete compatibility with the existing format is required.
- device drivers that handle UDF formats (and programs that install them) which are not necessarily in widespread use, are recorded as ROM data in the IS09660 format accessible from ordinary CD-ROM device drivers. A usage method in which the program is read on a host computer and a UDF device driver is installed is also assumed.
- the first session is a UDF format RAM area and the second session is an ISO 9660 format ROM area.
- the use of giving the conditionally reproducible attribute to the data of the second session is particularly useful. That is, while the recording drive writes user data only to the RAM area of the first session, the user is not allowed to access the second session, and the user inputs specific encryption information or the like. It is used to read the ROM information of the second session. Therefore, there is provided an area that can be rewritten only by a desired user. Handling becomes easy.
- all blocks in the read-in / read-out and program areas are user data blocks.
- a link block, a run-in block, a user data block, and a run-out block are formed in the lead-in Z read-out and program area as shown in FIG. .

- the layout in Fig. 12 (d) is a multi-session format consisting of two sessions, one for the ROM area and the other for the RAM area, both of which record fixed-length UDF packets as shown in Fig. 10. Format.
- the ROM areas are arranged collectively on a series of consecutive addresses.
- the ROM area is a group of files described based on, for example, A VDP (Anchor Volume Descriptor Pointer, which is located at the address 257 of the logical address) specified by the UDF. It is desirable to write management information data in RAM data and then arrange them collectively.
- a VDP Anchor Volume Descriptor Pointer
- the lead-in area may be re-writable if the RAM-type area is partially rewritten. desirable. Since the PMA area temporarily stores file management information like the lead-in, it is desirable that the PMA area be RAM data. However, if the lead-out area, especially the ROM data of the first session in FIG. 12 (a) consists of a series of pre-pits, it is desirable that the lead-out of the first session be formed of pre-pits.
- both the ROM area and the RAM area are recorded by the EFM modulation signal, and the absolute time information by the subcode needs to be continuous without interruption.
- the break between the ROM area and the RAM available area must correspond to the track or session break, which is the unit of data on the compact disk. For this data break, it is necessary to apply the 1 inking rule in the data appending part specified in the CD-RW standard (range book, part 3).
- a logical ROM and a write-once type disk can be realized on the CD-RW disk 10, and the ROM data can be realized on a P-ROM disk partially having ROM data.

- step S5 a menu screen, which is a user interface, is started, and the user is caused to select an operation of the subsequent execution program.
- step S6 the execution of the demonstration and the contents of the demonstration to be executed are selected, and the start of the demonstration is instructed. Is shown.
- the first demonstration selected is called Demo 1.
- step S7 a predetermined address of the post ROM area 1553 of the CD-RW disc 210 on which the specific contents of the demonstration are described is accessed, and the data of the demo 1 is obtained. Normally, this data is temporarily stored in a temporary storage memory such as a solid-state buffer memory or a hard disk in the host computer, and is read out from the temporary storage memory 260. It is converted to an image and executed as a demonstration.
- a temporary storage memory such as a solid-state buffer memory or a hard disk in the host computer
- step S9 the demonstration is repeatedly performed by the route R1, and the process shifts to the data input from the user.
- step S10 the RAM area of the CD-RW disc 210 is accessed and the apparatus enters a standby state.
- step S11 data is input from the user. This is equivalent to the user repeating the contents of Demo 1 using language learning as an example.
- the audio data is AD-converted in the host computer 230 and is temporarily stored in a temporary storage memory 260 in the host computer 230.
- the user data and the demo 1 data may be assigned to the left and right channels, respectively, and combined to form a stereo recording. This makes it easier to compare the content of Demo 1 with the content of the user's repetition.
- step S12 the data is transferred to the recording / reproducing device 220, and the user data is recorded in the RAM area of the CD-RW disc 210, and in step S13, as necessary.
- the user's input data is played immediately.
- a route R2 for re-entering user data or a route R3 for returning to the repetitive execution of the demo 1 can be selected, but if it is not necessary, the step S1 Next demonstration at 5 (Demo 2) You will be given a choice to move to or end the demonstration. To proceed to the next demonstration, the process returns to step S6 via route R4 (Yes route), and a demo selection operation is performed.
- step S16 the file management information is updated based on the user data newly recorded in the RAM area, and in step S17, the demonstration ends, Return to the menu screen by route R5.
- the CD-RW having three types of areas of the master ROM, the post ROM, and the RAM according to the present invention stores an application program of the first version in the master ROM area in addition to the specific example such as the language learning described above.
- a partial version upgrade update
- the first version of the application program can be a basic program that does not need to be updated and is common to all applications added later as a post ROM.
- the master ROM, the post ROM, and the RAM are respectively arranged in order from the inner periphery, but the order is not necessarily required. Further, as shown in FIG. 12C, the master ROM, the post ROM, and the RAM area may be arranged in the UDF format that is not divided into sessions. Industrial applicability
- a rewritable phase-change disk in particular, in a CD-RW, three types of data attributes of write-protection (reproduction only), rewritable once, and rewritable arbitrarily are set in the CD format. It can be specified for each frame of 1 / ⁇ 5 seconds, which is the basic unit of data, or for each block of user data. As a result, originally rewritable data can be handled as logical ROM data. Also, the CD-RW can be used as a write-once medium as it appears.
- a physical ROM area consisting of pre-pits, or the above-mentioned logical ROM area and RAM area are mixed, and both areas are covered with the same phase change medium.
- overwriting of ROM data can be prohibited, and destruction and falsification of ROM data and data can be prevented.
