Automated Document Delivery.
1992
Thoma G.R.
While bibliographic database systems are commonly available for the search and retrieval of citations, it is still difficult and time-consuming to follow this up with the physical delivery of the actual documents or document surrogates. This usually entails the physical retrieval of the paper documents from the shelves, physically photocopying the documents and mailing the photocopies, all of which delay user receipt of the requested documents. A prototype system has been developed to investigate the technical and operational issues related to the automatic access to a document image database, and the retrieval and transmission of document images to remote sites via fax. The system consists of a complex of IBM AT-compatible and 386 machines linked by a Token Ring LAN. The engineering design considerations are covered and the hardware and software implementation is described.
