Microcomputer Management Policy for U.S. Naval Forces.
Abstract
Microcomputers have become an integral part of business life in America and in the U.S. Navy. They can be used as stand-alone processors, components of a network, or terminals to more powerful mini- or mainframe computers. Microcomputers are a valuable resource and should be treated accordingly. The proliferation of microcomputers can not go unchecked by management. There must be a plan that will channel the power of microcomputer towards the goals and objectives of the organization. The Navy is no exception. It too must deal with the proliferation of a new technology. The Navy must establish hardware and software standards for use throughout the fleet. These standards must be incorporated in fleet wide training plans so that fleet personnel can apply the standards in the accomplishment of their tasks. Through a comprehensive microcomputer management policy, the power of microcomputers can be used to accomplish the Navy's mission.
