โฆ Synopsis
In this paper, a distributed fax message processing system named AutoFax is described. The AutoFax system provides capabilities for recognizing, storing and managing fax messages automatically in a distributed environment. Fax message images are interpreted and routed to the appropriate receiver's mailbox. In addition, the contents of each fax message are recognized and stored according to their logical and layout formats in order to reduce the amount of storage required. The proposed system is based on a client-server architecture. The server is responsible for recognizing and storing of fax messages. The client provides an interface for the user to compose, manage and send fax messages.
