Abstract: An example method of verifying avionic data includes establishing a first cyclic redundancy check value associated with a data file. The first cyclic redundancy value is established on an aircraft. The method transmits the data file from the aircraft to a ground system. The method receives a second cyclic redundancy check value associated with the data file. The second cyclic redundancy check value is established by the ground system. The method determines the transmitted data file integrity by comparing the first cyclic redundancy check value to the second cyclic redundancy check value. An example aircraft avionic data verification arrangement includes a collector device that assembles avionic data into a data file that is transmittable to a ground system. A controller is programmed to provide a first cyclic redundancy check value associated with the data file and to identify errors in the data file received by the ground system based on a comparison between the first cyclic redundancy check value and a second cyclic redundancy check value established by the ground system.

Abstract: In a multilayer optical disc having information layers conforming to a plurality of different optical disc standards, because the type of each information layer is not recorded in the other information layers, in read and write operations by a compatible optical disc device conforming to a plurality of optical disc standards, every time the information layer being accessed changes, it has been necessary to read the type of the information layer and select a method of generating a tracking error signal adapted to the type of information layer, so access has taken time. 
     In order to solve the above problem, in the optical multilayer disc according to the present invention, having information layers conforming to a plurality of different optical disc standards, in an area in one of the information layers, information about the other information layers is recorded.
