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.

Under the relevant regulations, it is required to develop a system architecture for the research and development of the information and communication infra system ; however, the national defense architecture development guides and MND-AF, which provide the instructions on the development and utilization of a system architecture, are still limited to the ITA level and merely providing the guidelines for developing the information system centric architecture. Thus, it is evident that we need a suitable architecture development methodology that corresponds to the growing needs for the communication infra system architecture, as well as the general weapon system architecture. Improving a meta-model is the core of improving a architecture framework. It determines a contents of a architecture and it influences a efficiency and a effectiveness of a architecture. The meta-model of the architecture framework must reflect concerns of various stakeholders and provide a traceability among them. Also, it should be easy to develop and use the architecture by securing the feasibility of the logical relationships and eliminating the duplication of the data inside the architecture. It is implemented through the development of the data-centric architecture and achieved through the "Fit-for-purpose" concept.
