“…80 This approach was successfully applied to information exchange with command and control systems, and also with cyber physical systems, and intelligent software agents. 81 The general challenge with these message-driven solutions is that they focus on the exchange of data within a message. The solutions are assumed to be in the same information sphere, operating on the same set of assumptions.…”

This position paper provides first, a literature survey of selected domains with significant contributions to simulation interoperability research, such as defense and healthcare simulation, including insights from academia and research organizations. Next, four main interoperability methods are reviewed, i.e., messages-oriented methods, use of information exchange models and common object models, and reference modeling, including ontological means. This review leads to the observation that successful approaches do not only rely on technical solutions but are also using conceptual alignment of the underlying models as well. The Levels of Conceptual Interoperability Model is revisited to consider how it contributed—and still contributes today—to reach meaningful interoperability between model-based solutions. Its descriptive and prescriptive use is discussed, and it is applied to the four methods to show its practical applicability.

“…16,17 Some efforts to apply BML are have been discussed previously. 26,27 BML is capable of expressing the user's requirements in an explicit way, and because of this it can be exploited as a tool to give form to pragmatics. 16 This paper introduces a conceptual architecture in which DF systems are integrated with C2 systems within the SES IEF.…”

With the advent of Network-Centric Warfare (NCW) concepts, Command and Control (C2) systems need efficient methods to produce, exchange, and consume diverse kinds of information within the networks. The System Entity Structure (SES) is an ontology framework that can facilitate information exchange in a network environment. From the perspective of the SES information exchange framework, the Battle Management Language (BML) serves to specify the information desired by a consumer in an unambiguous way. This paper formulates information exchange in the SES ontology via BML and defines novel pruning and transformation processes of the SES to extract and fuse data into higher-level representations. This supports increased interoperability between human users and other sensor systems. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed information exchange framework for data fusion systems, we illustrate the approach in an air defense operation scenario using Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) modeling and simulation. The demonstration shows that the information requested by a commander is delivered in the right way at the right time so that it can support agile decision making against threats.
