M&S techniques are utilized for various purposes on the national defense, and its importance is increasing than ever. For analyzing RAM (Reliability, Availability and Maintainability) of weapon system, using M&S techniques can be more effective and practical way than deterministic approach, because M&S approach can consider uncertain variables and various constraints in the ILS (Integrated Logistics support) field. For design of ILS M&S, we first set up a purpose of M&S, attributes of real system and other similar ILS M&S tool. Then, we convert real system into model which consists of mathematical formula and logical expression. In this thesis, we introduce modeling procedures of M&S that describes total life cycle of 'OO guided weapon system' and the contents proposed in this paper can provide references for developing other M&S tool.

Recently, as weapon systems have been more diverse and complicated, the factors of risk increase in development. Consequently, demanding reduction of acquired costs and period increase. Under the acquisition environment, more efficiently to develop weapon system, the necessity of application of defense M&S from requirement phase is on the rise. As the importance of M&S is stressed under distributed environment, so the standard of M&S(HLA, SEDRIS, etc.) and the system engineering process, namely FEDEP(Federation Development & Execution Process) have been developed. In this paper using the 5 phase expression, we constructed underwater engagement simulation(UNES) that prototype to develop naval weapon system test bed which take up integrated architecture in HLA. we developed simulators according to FEDEP for expandability and described process applying FEDEP fur UNES development.

Verification, Validation & Accreditation (VV&A) process is widely applied in various disciplines as a method of acquiring the credibility for M&S tools. The guideline of VV&A states that the detailed process can be established flexibly according to the needs and the availability of resources. For example, DAPA (Defense Acquisition Program Administration) guideline suggests that the accreditation process in the VV&A can be omitted if necessary. On this study, we first introduce and describe V&V process. Accreditation process is omitted due to limited time and resources. However, the proposed V&V is sufficient for our needs. Finally, we apply the proposed process of V&V to the System-Integrated Simulator of "Raybolt", Medium-Range Infantry Missile System, for the acquisition of the M&S credibility.

The Test and Evaluation (T&E) system became more important due to its advancement and complexity of the weapon system. Time and cost saving T&E related studies are in progress mainly with advanced countries. By utilizing the Modeling and Simulation (M&S) technology recently, we may save time and money. Also, overcome security and safety limitations. There are many M&S based research activities in South Korea but it is way behind of the system that some countries already have developed. i.e.; United States. This area of study requires new way of developing strategies in the T&E system of Korea. This study is to design the Operational T&E system for weapon systems based on modeling of processes. And we modeled the processes of operational performance evaluation through utilizing resources and performance modules of weapon systems and combined it with the simulation engine for 3D visualization. Through this, we propose the Operational T&E system for weapon systems based on modeling of processes that represent operational performances visually.

An integrated simulation engine provides tools, services, and standards to support various activities in the entire M&S from modeling and simulation to analysis of the simulation results. Many countries have developed integrated simulation engines to efficiently assist complex M&S activities. However, we do not have domestic simulation engines especially designed for defense M&S, therefore, developing M&S softwares still remains as a hard task with high cost and tine. OpenSIM(Open Simulation engine for Interoperable Models) is an integrated simulation engine and provides tools, services and standard interfaces for weapons analysis. OpenSIM's services are comprised of classes, member functions and data attributes which are commonly used in modeling, simulating and analyzing weapons systems. In this paper, we introduce OpenSIM's services in C++ APIs and illustrate them through an ASM example(Air to Surface Missile).

Defense Modeling and Simulation aims to provide a computerized war environment where we can analyze weapon systems realistically. As we invest significant efforts to represent weapon systems and their operational environments on the computer, there has been an increasing need to reuse predefined weapon models. In this paper, we introduce OB-Cloud (Ontology-Based Cloud storage) to utilize predefined weapon models. OB-Cloud has been implemented as a repository for OpenSIM (Open Simulation engine for Interoperable Models), which is an integrated simulation environment for aiding weapons effectiveness analysis, under the development of our research team. OB-Cloud uses weapon ontology and thesaurus dictionaries to provide semantic search for reusable models. In this paper, we present repository services of OB-Cloud, including registration of weapon models and semantic retrieval of similar models, and illustrate how we can improve reusability of weapon models, through an example.

Defense M&S for weapons effectiveness is a realistic way to support virtual warfare similar to real warfare. As the war paradigm becomes platform-centric to network-centric, people try to utilize smartphones as the source of sensor, and command/control data in the simulation-based weapons effectiveness analysis. However, there have been limited researches on integrating smartphones into the weapon simulators, partly due to high modeling cost - modeling cost to accomodate client-server architecture, and re-engineering cost to adapt the simulator on various devices and platforms -, lack of efficient mechanisms to exchange large amount of simulation data, and low-level of security. In this paper, we design and implement Smartphone Adaptor to utilize smartphones for the simulationbased weapons effectiveness analysis. Smartphone Adaptor automatically sends sensor information, GPS and motion data of a client's smartphone to a simulator and receives simulation results from the simulator on the server. Also, we make it possible for data to be transferred safely and quickly through JSON and SEED. Smartphone Adaptor is applied to OpenSIM (Open simulation engine for Interoperable Models) which is an integrated simulation environment for weapons effectiveness analysis, under development of our research team. In this paper, we will show Smartphone Adaptor can be used effectively in constructing a Live simulation, with an example of a chemical simulator.

Recently in the field of defense Modeling and Simulation (M&S), Component-Based Development technology is widely applying to save the cost and increase the reusability of weapon system development. Related with this, researches for rapid reconfiguration and simulation of the component-standardized weapon system is actively carrying out. To rapidly reconfigure the new weapon system, complex and various functions of component information has to be effectively searched. So, it requires differentiated search technique unlike existing Keyword-based Search method. Semantic Search System provides semantically related information among the extensive information. In this research, metadata of weapon system components and their representative functional words are built as an ontology. And it provides an ontology-based semantic search system.
