The International Journal of Micrographics & Optical Technology
was conceived around 25 years ago as a platform for the publication of
original material (both applied and theoretical), news and new product
information in the fields of micrographics, electronic information transfer,
and workflow. Digital technology is moving at an exponential rate, providing
some extremely exciting challenges -- opportunities -- for new and existing
users of information management technology. Accordingly, Micrographics
has wholly embraced emerging technologies -- CD-ROM, Magneto-Optical,
high-performance image capture, text recognition, storage, indexing
and
retrieval -- providing information about their technological bases, evaluation
and selection of components, and their integration into systems which
enable organisations to remain in control of the information explosion.
Recent issues have featured:
- IT and Business Process Re-engineering
- The benefits of mid-volume scanners in distributed
processing
- Recovery of silver from film processing operations

record storage
