In the initial step of BIM based architectural design process, workloads are increased and the decision making process becomes more complex than those of the conventional design process. Technologies regarding distribution, exchange, classification, verification of BIM data are fundamental elements of construct environment for information sharing based on BIM. Interoperability of BIM model data is another issue to integrate BIM model. To improve interoperability in BIM-based collaboration, a model for utilizing formal&unformal design informations is suggested. Futhermore, Prototyping the model and practical test is conducted for advancement of data exchange making design data richen.

Recently, there is a rising interest in smart grid operating system which manages various types of distributed generation, smart meters, and electric vehicles with power grid. Considering the features of smart grid environment, the interoperability should be one of the important factors to build smart grid environment successfully. To secure interoperability, smart grid operating system should conform to some standards in terms of the data representation and communication. CIM and OPC-UA are the international standards widely used in smart grid domain for enabling interoperability. They provide common information model and the unified architecture for communicating between each systems or applications. In this paper, we illustrate a smart grid operating system that we have developed to secure interoperability between not only applications but also numerous legacy systems(applications) by implementing CIM based information model and OPC-UA based communication interface services.

Smart grid is called it as a system of systems. There are diverse types of systems in smart grid environment. Therefore, one of key factors to achieve smart grid successfully is interoperability among diverse systems. To secure interoperability, smart grid operating system should be developed complied with standards in terms of the data representation and communication. Common Information Model (CIM) and OLE Process for Control - Unified Architecture (OPC-UA) are the representative international standards in smart grid domain. Each standard defines data representation and communication by providing common information model and the unified architecture. In this paper, we explain a smart grid platform that we have developed to comply with CIM and OPC-UA standards for secure interoperability among numerous legacy systems.

The amount of Meta-data to be managed increases with development of information technology. However, when trying to integrate and share product information of heterogeneous systems within or between companies, sharing of information is impossible if product information classification systems are different. Due to the situation mentioned above, engineers judge the product information classification system and maps corresponding Meta-data for document-based sharing. Judging exponentially increasing amount of data by engineers and sharing product information using documents create great amount of time delay and errors in data handling. Therefore, construction of a system for integrated management and interoperability between product information based on semantic information similar to engineer's judgment is required. This paper proposes a methodology and necessity of a system for interoperability of product information based on semantic web, and also designs a system to integrate heterogeneous systems with different product information using rule based reasoning. This paper also suggests a system base for interoperability and integration of product information between heterogeneous systems by integrating the product information classification system semantically.

Using integrated construction project data is necessary for efficient management of construction projects. Recently IFC(Industry Foundation Classes) are proposed as integration method based on interoperability and there have been several cases of system integration based on IFC. The concept of interoperability proposes the construction object as data sharing protocol between systems for system integration and independence of each system. This study proposes system development strategy by phases considering work scope and procedure of processes based on the concept of interoperability. This is proposed to overcome tendency of developing system which doesn't support real work processes as result of inclining to the format of IFC instead of properly using IFC's interoperability concept to real work scope and procedure.

As the distributed simulation system has been developed in the defense modeling and simulation, interoperability among heterogeneous simulators is essential to achieve the objectives of the distributed simulation system. However, the interoperability has been a problem to synchronize synthetic environment among many heterogeneous simulators that utilize different environmental data formats. SEDRIS (Synthetic Environmental Data Representation and Interchange Specification) was initiated to solve the problem of the interoperability. SEDRIS provides a standard mechanism to promote data interchange and reusability, and it represents all environmental things from ocean, land and atmosphere to the universe. Although SEDRIS provides various advantages as a standard environmental data format, applying of SEDRIS has been hindered by its broadness and complexity. The main objective of this paper is to explain application development process to improve SEDRIS usability for the atmosphere and ocean. The developed application of this paper provides auto-generation of SEDRIS data with minimum user's input, and the auto-generated SEDRIS data is also visualized and verified by the application.

The purpose of the present study is to suggest the meta data of the attribute mapping for interoperability from IFC to CityGML. For this, we analyzed the interoperability issue including the neutral information model structure such as IFC, CityGML. To solve the interoperability problem between IFC and CityGML model which is the neutral GIS format, We proposed the meta data including the mapping rule. The meta data is consists of the connection information between BIM and GIS model, the mapping rule based on the perspective of the use-case, the operator and the attribute. By using this, XML to represent the meta data is defined and the information mapping system is developed.

As the networks connect the world, enterprises tend to move manufacturing activities into virtual spaces. Since different software applications use different data terminology, it becomes a problem to interoperate, interchange, and manage electronic data among heterogeneous systems. It is said that approximately one billion dollar has been being spent yearly in USA for product data exchange and interoperability. As commercial CAD systems have brought in the concept of design feature for the sake of interoperability, terminologies of design features need to be harmonized. In order to define design feature terminology for integration, knowledge about feature definitions of different CAD systems should be considered. STEP standard have attempted to solve this problem, but it defines only syntactic data representation so that semantic data integration is not possible. This paper proposes a methodology for integrating modeling features of CAD systems. We utilize the ontology concept to build a data model of design features which can be a semantic standard of feature definitions of CAD systems. Using feature ontology, we implement an integrated virtual database and a simple system which searches and edits design features in a semantic way.

The ROK military has established the MND-AF (Ministry of National Defense- Architecture Framework) and is applying it when developing architecture for Enterprise (MND), Segment (component) and Solution (weapons and force support system). The AMM (Architecture Meta model) of the MND-AF supports the establishment of interoperability by systematizing the architecture information structure defined by the Architecture artifact, describing the relationship between data and also by liking reference models and Information technology standard, common components, and MND-Meta data. which are interoperability standards. However, the MND-AMM has insufficient linkage with the standards, which places constraints on applying interoperability standards when developing Solution architecture. This study suggests a logical data model (OV-7c) from the MND-Meta-data-based Architecture meta model that will enhance the application of MND meta data managed by the MND interoperability standard when developing Solution architecture.
