Abstract Due 3 February 2014 for Optical Data Storage, part of SPIE Optics + Photonics 2014

The ODS special conference offers an excellent forum for exchanging information on the status, advances, and future directions in the field of optical data storage. The Blu-ray Disc, which is the latest generation optical data storage system, is growing in the commercial market. However, competition with hard disk drives and solid state drives, as well as the growth of storage in the cloud, is making it unclear what the future ODS system might look like.

New developments in technologies for next generation systems such as holographic, multi-dimensional, and hybrid recording will be the main focus at this conference. New concepts based on nano-scale optical materials and phenomena will also be explored. Developments and methodologies in the related areas such as nano-photonics and bio-photonics are expected to influence future optical data storage and will be in the spotlight of this conference. Contributions in a variety of areas ranging from basic theory and modeling, to systems and applications for industrial and consumer use are strongly encouraged.

Papers are solicited in the following and related areas:

    holographic recording
    multi-dimensional recording
    near-field recording
    super-resolution
    hybrid recording
    advanced or related optical storage technologies
    basic theory and modeling
    testing and characterization
    media and materials
    components
    coding and signal processing
    drive technologies
    systems and applications
    nano-photonic ODS
    plasmonic ODS
    spintronic ODS

Symposium theme and focus:
Rapid growth and development in Asian countries has increased their economic and social importance in the world. Their effects on the global environment have become serious as well. Examples include increasing releases of greenhouse gases, environmental contamination, exhaustion of water resources, and vulnerability to severe natural disasters. Under such circumstances it is imperative to monitor the global environment by remote sensing and to understand environmental changes in order to preserve the environment for our lives and the future.

The focus of the 8th Asia-Pacific Remote Sensing Symposium in Kyoto, Japan, is "Remote Sensing for the environment and the prevention and mitigation of disaster."
The scope of the symposium includes:

- Global environmental change and impacts of human activities
- Environmental pollution diagnostics
- Water circulation and natural disasters
- Marine environment and threats to the coastal areas
- Remote sensing and modeling.

The individual conferences focus on active and passive remote sensing techniques, applications of atmosphere, land and marine sensing technologies, and development of new remote sensing sensors. The symposium will bring together policy makers, scientists and engineers from the Asia-Pacific region, and other parts of the world, to discuss the issues and the development of the remote sensing technologies, data processing techniques, applications of remote sensing data, modeling aspects that make use of remotely sensed data sets and societal benefits of remote sensing products. The wind lidar is being considered as an important forthcoming remote sensing instrument from satellites. We encourage scientists that wish to make presentations on wind lidar related modeling applications.
