451222 - SDS records like this one are examples of work product showing that
451223 - using SDS, as explained in the typical day scenario, is effective. The

451244 - Organic Subject Structure is a method developed within SDS for

451261 - Stuart mentioned that DCMA uses a lot of paper.  The agency is
451262 - starting to create PDF files so that documents are available online.
451263 - This aligns with efforts at USACE, which began converting to PDF files
451264 - 2 years ago, reported on 981218. ref SDS 3 4899
451265 -
451266 - Stuart indicated that PDF files have limited utility.
451267 -
451268 - This concern was discussed with Jim Lovo in HQUSACE on 990105, when he
451269 - noted that SDS makes the "paperless" office a reality. ref SDS 4 5880
451270 - As Stuart observes today, creating PDF files does not improve the
451271 - work. ref SDS 3 LX4G  Electronic media must be accessible to specified
451272 - locations for linking that constructs a web of connected knowledge.
451273 - ..
451274 - Stuart said he will print the SDS Typical Day Scenaro and read
451275 - it.
451276 -
451277 - Printing SDS records prevents experiencing the benefits of a paperless
451278 - office.  Improving comprehension and strengthening literacy by adding
451279 - "intelligence" to information requires SDS "Knowledge Space" where
451280 - electronic links triangulate understanding by placing everything in
451281 - context, see POIMS, ref OF 1 16EF, and providing backup by clicking or
451282 - pressing enter that shows chronology of cause and effect.  Links are
451283 - only avialable online.  Paper prevents timely access to history of
451284 - cause and effect, and so prevents learning and benefiting from the
451285 - power of Knowledge Space. see POIMS, ref OF 1 1107

451288 -     is a lot of paper. ref SDS 17 CX9L
