Computer networks overlooked in BRAC talks.

The article reports on the recommendation of the U.S. Base Realignment and Closure Commission (BRAC) to rewire computer networks as part of the closure and realignment of military bases. According to the Information Technology Association, the recommendation came after changes were made in how the military uses information technology. The Army will shift to thin client computer networks in which data are stored on central servers rather than individual computers. The Navy will reduce redundant equipment and processes.
