M&S (Modeling & Simulation) based design is widely accepted for the development of the future weapon system with better performance in a cheaper and faster way. Integrated simulation environment (ISE) is needed for the M&S based design. On the ISE, system engineers can not only verify design options but also validate system requirements. In this paper, we propose architectural models of the integrated simulation environment (ISE) which incorporates mission effectiveness M&S (Modeling & Simulation), system performance M&S, the optimization model of integrated performances, digital mockup and virtual prototype. The ISE architectural models may be used to implement the ISE for the development of the future unmanned ground combat vehicle.

In applying modeling and simulation (M&S) techniques to analyze complex discrete event dynamic systems, conventionally users had to use different simulation environments depending on the user-level. To solve the inconvenience, this paper proposes an integrated development environment for M&S depending on user-level and a formalized interface to manage the model in the development environment efficiently. The interface consists of an extended DEVS formalism and model making rules. The development environment is divided into a modeling environment and a simulation environment. In the modeling environment, three modeling methods are provided for each level of the users. Users inputs several parameters to the model generated as a result of the modeling process, and experiments in various cases by using the simulation environment. The case study shows the implementation of the proposed M&S environment, and using the implemented environment, it shows the M&S process of the complex defense combat system.

Since the year 2000, the growth rate of domestic manufacturing has declined and the sales and employment have decreased. Major developed countries have established a variety of strategies to strengthen their manufacturing competitiveness, and promote manufacturing innovation through the convergence of technology and ICT. The key to manufacturing innovation is to reduce the time and cost for developing new products using modeling and simulation (M&S) technology in the product design stage. M&S industries, which belong to the top sector of the industry value chain, have a huge ripple effect across other industries. On the other hand, the competitiveness of the domestic M&S industry is weak compared to developed countries and even the definition and classification of domestic M&S companies have not been made. In this paper, by analyzing the Korea Standard Industry Classification (KSIC), five fine industry classifications included in M&S service companies were derived. In addition, the 307 M&S service companies were derived in accordance with the selection procedure of 3 steps from the 11,822 related companies. To analyze the capabilities of domestic M&S service companies, the current status of the selected M&S service companies was investigated. Considering the Korean economy's high dependence on the manufacturing industry, strengthening the competitiveness of manufacturing industry is required by enhancing the capacities and building an ecosystem in domestic M&S services for future sustainable economic growth.

Immediate and serious attention on CGF(computer generated forces) behavior modeling for defense M&S (modeling & simulation) is required in response to the reduction in the number of troops and development of 4^th industrial technologies. It is crucial for both military person and engineer to understand such technologies. The research aims to provide guidelines for establishment of research direction on CGF behavior modeling. We investigate traditional and/or novel methodologies such as rule-based, agent-based, and learning-based method. Discussions on future direction of applicable area and strategies are followed. We expect that the research plays a key role for understanding CGF behavior modeling.

This paper presents multi-fidelity modeling and simulation (M&S) methodology to enhance simulation performance of engineering-level defense models. In this approach, a set of models with varying degrees of fidelity is exercised to reduce computational expense maintaining a similar level of system effectiveness. For multi-fidelity M&S principles, this paper defines model fidelity from two perspectives (i.e., model behavior and execution), and suggests the Fidelity Change Point (FCP) to specify the fidelity conversion. With these concepts, this paper centers on three ideas: 1) two models' structure which are the Behavioral-Fidelity Interchangeable Model (B-FIM) and the Executional-Fidelity Interchangeable Model (E-FIM), 2) modeling formalism, and 3) a simulation algorithm to support them. From an abstract case study regarding a target tracking scenario with the utilization of the proposed method, we can gain interesting experimental results regarding the enhancement of simulation performance. Finally, we expect that this work will serve various M&S-based analysis areas for enhancing simulation performance.

Regarding current rapid innovations and applications of information and telecommunication technologies as well as economical requirements, modeling and simulation (M&S) plays an increasingly important role for the planning, development and operation of high-tech products and systems. M&S has to seen as a key technology for multi-facetted analysis of complex systems during their life-cycles. For reasons as accuracy, credibility and cost-effectiveness, the selection of adequate and effective M&S techniques and tools is of significant importance. Regarding these aspects, this paper summarizes the basic methodological modeling approach for effective product and system modeling. In addition, besides a classification of different basic architectures and taxonomies combining knowledge-processing and simulation techniques, the paper describes some practical implementations and experiences.

This paper introduces an integrated Modeling & Simulation framework for the efficient development of the rescue robot which rescues a wounded patients or soldiers and disposes a dangerous objects or explosive materials in the battlefields and disastrous environments. An integrated M&S(Modeling & Simulation) framework would have enabled us to perform the dynamic simulation program GAZEBO based Software-in-the-Loop Simulation(SILS) which is to replacing the robot platform hardware with a simulation software. An integrated M&S framework would help us to perform designing robot and performance validation of robot control results more efficiently. Furthermore, Tele-operation performance in the unstructured environments could be improved. We review a case study of applying an integrated M&S framework tool in validating performance of mobility stabilization control, one of the most important control strategy in the rescue robot.

Since the 1970s, manufacturing has been one of the key driving forces that has led to Korea's economic growth. However, this growth rate has been reduced significantly since the 2000s, and shows that revenues and employment are steadily decreasing. In addition, while manufacturing investment in Korea has dropped sharply, the United States, Germany, Japan, and other major countries have increased investment in manufacturing. These countries have promoted manufacturing innovation strategies that include the convergence of information and communications technologies (ICT) and manufacturing. For manufacturing innovation, it is important for time and cost savings required for product development to be achieved by changes in the production process, especially product design. Modeling and simulation (M&S) is a process that replaces physical product design, mockup making, and testing, with virtual product creation (modeling) and engineering analysis (simulation). In this paper, we analyze the economic ripple effect of supercomputing M&S using an input-output model technique based on the input-output tables published by the Bank of Korea. When we set the M&S budget (about US$16 million for the last 10 years) of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) as input coefficients, the effect on production inducement, value-added inducement, and employment inducement was analyzed to be US$24 million, US$13.4 million, and 267, respectively.

Modeling and simulation technology is being used in various fields. Especially in the field of military, Simulation-Based Acquisition (SBA) is recognized as a essential policy. To effectively carry out SBA, modeling and simulation techniques should be applied in the whole life-cycle for the weapon system development, and the framework and tools which can help the rapid component development and reusability are needed. In this research, we use the simulation framework based on modeling formalism for enhancement of reusability and a GUI-based modeling environment for rapid M&S component development. The Proposed framework can act as plug-in components on the basis of XML-based object model, so that the flexible design is possible for the change of the model and simulation structure. In addition, our methods are effective to implement the functions for supporting simulation such as the model data logging and communication with external systems. In this paper, we describe an architecture and functions for the framework and tools.
