hello friends, i am pursuing my degree and i am in my final semester. I need to know how every file is stored on a disk i.e. if a application want to access any file i.e. any video,audio,document file, is there a common way, how every file stored on the disk.

Yes, every file is merely a stream of bytes (or bits) and can be accessed in exactly the same way. The difficulty is knowing how to interpret each byte to make sense of the information. However, I doubt if that knowledge is of any use to you; perhaps it would be better if you explained exactly what problem you are trying to solve.
I must get a clever new signature for 2011.

This is a vague question and I get the impression that if I knew exactly what you're asking:
- I probably wouldn't know the answer.
- An explanation would take more space than available here.
