Army Needs Word Processing Expertise, Too

Article Abstract:

Dr. James Kasprzak is Chief of Technology in the Adjutant General's Office of the United States Army, and as such, oversees the Army's data processing systems. Conducting studies on efficiency and equipment, he has saved the government over $120,000,000. He developed the Army's word processing system, did a cost analysis of microcomputers, and integrated office systems. A recent survey yielded a 50,000 page data base of three thousand individuals interviewed concerning computer systems, 700 recommendations and a savings of twelve million dollars. Currently, he is working on integrated systems and a new word processing manual.

Word Processors - Looking Outside

Article Abstract:

Word processing is useful in both remote and local communications. Electronic mail systems, multi-windowing, and communication with other word processors and data bases are among a word processor's abilities. Long distance communications are a simple enhancement. Public telephone lines link the word processors to global networks and a modem converts the digital pulses to audible tones. Word processors can access data and information services.

Is Word Processing Dead?

Article Abstract:

Word processing systems are expected to retain an important place in the automated office for a long time. More emphasis is now placed on creative WP software. Word processing is changing from a standalone function to becoming a part of an integrated information system, but the change is slow. Executives should choose the most capable WP systems they can find, with user support a must.
