It demonstrates that an Intranet can be a useful mechanism to solve problems related to information control and distribution for the reserve component of the 40th Infantry Division (Mechanized). The thesis contains a detailed description of the rapid prototyping process model, as well as the modifications required to adapt the process for Intranet development.
