description.
This course is for managers who have been assigned to manage a document
imaging system or digital library, and must start immediately. This course
is designed to assist managers to be more effective in bringing the
immediate and long term benefits of document imaging and document management
to their organizations and to their organizations’ clients, customers, and
constituents. Students will gain an understanding of how document imaging
can be used and managed in both small and large-scale organizations.
Document imaging is the process of taking documents out of file cabinets,
and off shelves, and storing them in a computer. This course provides an
understanding of the details that there is often no time to review in the
rush to implement a system. The course content is intended to be useful to
students in their professional work for twenty years into the future and is
also intended to be useful for planning to preserve digital documents
forever. The course may be too broad for students seeking to learn a
specific software application. Students will learn about the technology of
scanning, importing, transmitting, organizing, indexing, storing,
protecting, searching, retrieving, viewing, printing, and protecting
documents for document imaging systems and digital libraries. Image and
document formats, metadata, XML (eXtensible Markup Language), multimedia,
rich text, PDF (Portable Document Format), GIS (Geographic Information
Systems), CAD (Computer Aided Design), VR (Virtual Reality) indices, image
enabled databases, RAM (Random Access Memory) based SQL (Structured Query
Language) databases, knowledge management, data warehousing, records
inventories, retention schedules, black and white, grayscale, and color
scanning, OCR (Optical Character Recognition), destructive (lossy) and
non-destructive (lossless) compression, digital signatures and seals,
encryption, and disaster planning will be discussed. System design issues
in hardware, software, networking, ergonomics, and workflow will be covered.
Emerging technologies such as the DVD Digital Video Disk, HDTV (High
Definition TV), and very high speed Internet, intranet, and extranet links
and protocols will be discussed. The course will include the DVD’s role in
completing the convergence of the PC and television, the convergence of
telephony, cable, and the Internet, the merging of home and office, the
merging of business and entertainment, and the management of the resulting
document types. Many professionals including records managers, librarians,
and archivists work with document management issues every day. While not
limited to these professionals, this course builds on the broad range of
tools and techniques that exist in these professions. The class content is
designed so that students can benefit from each part of the class without
fully understanding every technical detail presented. This course is
designed for non-technical professionals. Several system designs will be
done based on system requirements provided by the students. System designs
are done to provide an understanding of the design process, not to provide
guaranteed solutions to specific problems. There is no hands-on use of
scanning equipment. The course is designed to improve the ability of
non-technical managers to participate in, and to direct, technical
discussions. The UCLA Extension Catalog is at:

describe various document management topics in prose.
Computer storage requirements for various digitized document types:
1 scanned page (8 1/2 by 11 inches, A4) = 50 KiloBytes (KByte)
(on average, black & white, CCITT G4 compressed)
1 file cabinet (4 drawer) (10,000 pages on average) = 500 MegaBytes (MByte)
= 1 CD (ROM or WORM)
2 file cabinets = 10 cubic feet = 1,000 MBytes = 1 GigaByte (GByte)
10 file cabinets = 1 DVD (WORM)
1 box (in inches: 15 1/2 long x 12 wide x 10 deep) (2,500 pages) =
1 file drawer = 2 linear feet of files = 1 1/4 cubic feet = 125 MBytes
8 boxes = 16 linear feet = 2 file cabinets = 1 GByte
