In the Army's Force XXI Operations, a new form of battle command based on a nonhierarchial—or "Internetted"—structure is envisioned. Internetted structures refer to those entities that rely upon a structure resembling neural networks, with individual nodes connected to one another in "web-like" patterns. […] Because of the robust properties of this design, it was foreseen during the Cold War that such an Internetted U.S. communications structure would have a better chance of surviving a potential nuclear exchange than the more traditional existing structure.

[T]he term netwar refers to an emerging mode of conflict (and crime) at societal levels, involving measures short of traditional war, in which the protagonists use network forms of organization and related doctrines, strategies, and technologies attuned to the information age. These protagonists are likely to consist of dispersed small groups who communicate, coordinate, and conduct their campaigns in an internetted manner, without a precise central command.

The time required to move large blocks of characters into and out of space in main memory seriously limits the computer's processing capabilities and its responsiveness, particularly during a time of high volume use, such as a crisis. Additional memory and secondary storage are required to handle these large blocks of characters. However, the movement of so many unnecessary characters complicates the use of these computers in an internetted multisite environment.
