Abstract :
Recently, the US Army has been confronted by a wider range of military and peace-keeping operations. The future success of the Army on tomorrow´s battlefields depends, in part, on how effectively our forces are able to fight and win the information war. We present a computer simulation approach being developed for the Army Digitization Office (ADO) for reengineering the current stove-piped organization of tactical Army staffs into staffs organized for information operations in the 21st century
