English abstract
In digital "archeology" it is typically not enough to read bit streams from original media like floppy disks just into a file. Those bitstreams have a logical structure which might not be easily accessible if no information on the underlying block structure and filesystem is available (implemented for the system where the bit stream is read on). This thesis looks into recovered bit streams of Burroughs Technologies Operating System (BTOS) or its successor the Convergent Technologies Operating System (CTOS) filesystems. It discusses the basics of computer forensics and filesystems required to write a tool to recover single files from the bit stream on an abstract level. Additionally an implementation is programmed which interprete the bit streams and save them to single files.
