DIFs (Data Interchange Formats) are needed to enhance interoperability of physically distributed organizations in SBA (Simulation Based Acquisition) process. DIFs play a role as a template of DPDs (Distributed Product Descriptions) and provide capability to use information directly without data format interchange process by allowing access to DPDs, which include various information and M&S (Modeling & Simulation) resources. This characteristic is essential for interoperability in ICE (Integrated Collaborative Environment) based SBA. This paper proposes a framework for the DIF and outputs from each phase of acquisition process for configuration data related to design and manufacturing in SBA process - Conceptual Data Model, Logical Data Model, Physical Data Model and Physical DIF based on XML. Finally, we propose the DIF model architecture and demonstrate the implementation of DIF example based on it.

Recently, BIM has been widely applying in civil engineering projects centering on the private construction industry in order to establish self guidelines for spreading in practice. However, most BIM technologies and software are based on the architectural projects. In these environments, it is not easy to apply the BIM to a infrastructure field. Even BIM standards with IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) are also focusing on architectural projects. Especially, both private and public sectors do not know about how BIM delivery system should be performed, and how such deliverable should be submitted to the government yet. Thus, we need to analyze an application level of BIM S/W (Software) in real projects and verify their interoperability. Besides, since there are not any common standards that can exchange IFC models for civil engineering projects, we have many issues in converting as-built infrastructure models into IFC and delivering their design documents to the government. Accordingly, this study aims to perform a BIM process with commercial software for real road project after a detailed design process is finished and verify interoperability between diverse BIM software for securing BIM data reliability.

The defense M&S (Modeling and Simulation) techniques are being used by the ROK Army for developing the efficiency and economics of national defense at operational level. But the problem we have found is the lack of interoperability and reusability in defense M&S. CMMS (Conceptual Model of the Mission Space) method have been used by militaries of some advanced countries for the purpose to solve these problems. Therefore, we have adapted the same approach in this paper as adapted by advanced countries military forces as named it as K-CMMS(Korean-Conceptual Model of the Mission Space). Considering the special ROK factors, we have suggested the framework of K-CMMS. We have tried to search for improving the reusability and interoperability in defense M&S.

Lately CBD methodologies like as CBD96, Catalysis, fusion, and SCIPIO have been introduced. These methodoloties has their own proprietary component reference model. Using proprietary reference model falls interoperability among methodologies. Furthermore it can cause confusion and difficulty for component developers. In this paper, we propose a integrated component meta-model for support consistency and interoperability among component designs. Also, we compare our proposed meta model to existing component reference model by using component's characteristics. We expect that it is easy to add new meta model elements and extends meta-model by using integrated component meta-model.

Military wargame simulation models must support the HLA in order to facilitate interoperability with other simulations, and using parallel simulation engines offer efficiency in reducing system overhead generated by propelling interoperability. However, legacy military simulation model engines process events using sequential event-driven method. This is due to problems generated by parallel processing such as synchronous reference to global data domains. Additionally. using legacy simulation platforms result in insufficient utilization of multiple CPUs even if a multiple CPU system is under use. Therefore, in this paper, we propose conversing the simulation engine to an object model-based parallel simulation engine to ensure military wargame model's improved system processing capability, synchronous reference to global data domains, external simulation time processing, and the sequence of parallel-processed events during a crash recovery. The converted parallel simulation engine is designed and implemented to enable parallel execution on a multiple CPU system (SMP).

The utilization of Building Information Modeling (BIM) has increased in order to enhance the integration of information for management and resources throughout the construction projects. Therefore, various BIM softwares have been used under open BIM environments in the building and plant construction industry. However, it has obstructive factors due to the lack of interoperability. In order to address this problem, this study conducted an interoperability analysis of BIM software focused on user-defined properties for enhanced function and efficiency. Result of the analysis shows that authoring tools have more interoperability problems than viewer tools and simulation tools have. In terms of interoperability, user-defined properties outperforms than those of system basic properties and logic data. Therefore, it was found that functional improvement and workload minimization in BIM can be attained by applying the GBS (an user-defined property for automatic manipulation of BIM proposed by Jung et al. 2013) that enables automatic link between geometric data and non-geometric data. In this respect, this study concludes that the application of user-defined property (e.g. GBS) can be an effective method for information integration throughout construction projects.

The next-generation war game simulators need a technique that reuses resources disperse on the web, and reorganizes federates on the fly based on the various events in real time. So far, HLA-based federates limit their interoperability to military networks, and in syntax-level. Web services techniques are widely used in enterprise applications and provide many proven practices to extend interoperability between WAN resources in semantic level. Two problems are met in order to utilize web services into war-game simulator : 1) How to achieve semantic-level interoperability between federates disperse on WAN, 2) How to interoperate web-based federates and RTI-based federates. In this paper, we provide solutions to the problems and highlight advantages using web-based federates with an example of ASuW(Anti-Surface Warfare).

Simulation is the imitation of some real thing, state of affairs, or process. The act of simulating something generally entails identifying certain key characteristics or behaviors of a selected physical or abstract system. And a simulator is the software or hardware tool that performs simulation tasks. When developing a simulator, the non-functional requirements such as modifiability, interoperability, and extendability should be required. However, existing studies about the simulator development focus not on such non-functional requirements but on the methodologies to build the simulation model. In this paper, we suggest the new architectural pattern for the software based simulator in consideration of such non-functional requirements. In order to define the architectural pattern, we identify the essential elements of the simulators, define relationships between them, and design the architectural structure with the elements to accommodate such non-functional requirements. According to the proposed pattern we can solve the simulation problems to combine the various simulation model components. The pattern guarantees modifiability by reconstructing the simulation model, also guarantees interoperability and extendability by adding various interfaces to the simulation model and by keeping the consistent interfacing mechanism between the simulation model components. The suggested architectural pattern can be used as the reference architecture of the simulator systems that will be developed in future.

Recently many corporations are introducing web services which supports mutual smooth information exchange without depending on platform or programming language and new distributed computing environment based on U standard technology and internet standard protocol such as HTTP. However they are suffering difficulty in interoperability because of the problem of version inconsistency of standards supported by platforms that each vender offers. To solve these interoperability problem, although WS-I is progressing a consecutive standardization work by method of that offer Basic Profile and Usage Scenario, it is in the state that the domestic research connected with this is not sufficient yet. Accordingly, this treatise constructed interoperability Test framework by developing web services on the basis of different platform from books information retrieval services that can easily be come with and simulated and verified the interoperability by applying WS-I Basic Profile.
