Development of electronic warfare(EW) software has become increasingly challenging due to stricter regulations, shorter development cycles, and increased reliability testing. Consequently, software development often proceeds without proper architecture design, which can lead to missing critical quality requirements and potential system redesigns. In this study, we propose using Attribute-Driven Design(ADD) 3.0 to design software architecture specifically tailored for EW systems, enabling a more systematic approach to address quality requirements. The paper presents an overview of EW software and ADD 3.0 methodology, followed by an analysis of the architecture design results using static and dynamic views. The paper concludes by discussing the effectiveness of the proposed architecture design.

In this paper, we have proposed a method and procedure which can find out the unknown network protocol. Although it seems to be difficult to identify the protocol, we can find out the rule in the packet according to the method we have proposed. We have to recognize functions of the system and make the list of events first. Then we capture the network packet whenever the event are occurred. The captured packets are examined by means of the method that is finding repeated parts, changed parts according to the input value, fixed parts and changed parts according to regular rules. Finally we make the test program to verify the protocol. We applied this method and procedure to upgrade Electronic Warfare Test System which is operated by ADD. We have briefly described the redesign of control and analysis software for Electronic Warfare Test System

Recent trends in modern warfare are increasing in importance for air warfare, information warfare, and warfare. The technology of the weapon system software is rapidly developing, and the silent information war to hack it is still going on. Currently, the FA-50 aircraft has a function that can be initialized by a simple switch operation to protect the main military information in the event of an emergency. However, there are limitations in the existing Zeroize function, and this study was carried out to supplement this. First, we compare and analyze the memory structure of aircraft operating in our military, and examined the currently implemented Zeroize function. Second, we reviewed various methods to overcome the limitation of existing Zeroize function. Third, we implement the existing Zeroize function without additional manipulation. In this paper, we propose that the implementation of this feature will enable us to protect our military data more securely and suggest that we should continue to look for ways to enhance security for our technology in the future.

Software for analyzing documents on the net to detect specific categories of occurrences is in great demand. In the current world where detecting terrorist threats is critical there is a great need for such systems. One of the critical application areas of such software is the automatic detection of a national infrastructure emergency. In this research an agent-based generic architecture for emergency warning systems is proposed and implemented. This system, called the National Infrastructure Emergency Warning System (NIEWS), is designed to analyze given documents, to detect threats, and to report possible threats with the necessary information to the appropriate users autonomously. In addition, a systematic analysis framework to detect emergencies on the subject of defensive information warfare is designated and implemented through a knowledge base. The developed system along with the knowledge base is implemented and successfully deployed to Strategic Crisis Exercise (SCE) at the United State Army War College (USAWC), saving a good amount of money by replacing human SMEs (subject matter experts) in the SCE.

In this paper, we propose a new scalable and reliable combat system software in battleship which was developed procedurally in the past. Recently, combat system software is required to change frequently due to addition of new equipment and change of function. To solve those problems, this paper propose how to change combat system software into scalable software using class structure change and design pattern. Simulation results show that our scheme provides better performances and reliability than conventional scheme. Therefore proposed scheme can be efficiently used in Naval combat system.

Recently, the technology of drones is developing remarkably. The role of military drones is so great that they can cause serious damage to the enemy's important strategic assets without any damage to our allies in all battlefield environments (land, sea, air). However, the battleship combat management system currently operated by the Korean Navy is vulnerable to defense because there is no customized defense system against drones. As drones continue to develop, they are bound to pose a major threat to navy in the future. This paper proposes a way for the warfare software of naval combat management system sets a combat mode suitable for anti-drone battle, evaluates the threat priority in order to preemptively respond to drone threats and eliminate drone threats through automatic allocation of self-ship-mounted weapons and sensors, and through a test of the improved warfare software in a simulated environment, it was proved that the time to respond to the drone was improved by 62%.

This study aims to analyze actual conditions of the present national defense information network operation, the structure and management of the system, communication lines, security equipments for the lines, the management of network and software, stored data and transferred data and even general vulnerable factors of our army tactical C4I system. Out of them, by carrying out an extensive analysis of the army tactical C4I system, likely to be the core of future information warfare, this study suggested plans adaptive to better information security, based on the vulnerable factors provided. Firstly, by suggesting various information security factor technologies, such as VPN (virtual private network), IPDS (intrusion prevention & detection system) and firewall system against virus and malicious software as well as security operation systems and validation programs, this study provided plans to improve the network, hardware (computer security), communication lines (communication security). Secondly, to prepare against hacking warfare which has been a social issue recently, this study suggested plans to establish countermeasures to increase the efficiency of the army tactical C4I system by investigating possible threats through an analysis of hacking techniques. Thirdly, to establish a more rational and efficient national defense information security system, this study provided a foundation by suggesting several priority factors, such as information security-related institutions and regulations and organization alignment and supplementation. On the basis of the results above, this study came to the following conclusion. To establish a successful information security system, it is essential to compose and operate an efficient 'Integrated Security System' that can detect and promptly cope with intrusion behaviors in real time through various different-type security systems and sustain the component information properly by analyzing intrusion-related information.

Future warfare paradigm is changing to network-centric warfare and effects-based operations. In order to find first and strike the enemy in the battlefield, friendly unit requires real-time target acquisition, intelligence collection, accurate situation assessment, and timely decision. The rapid development in advanced sensor technology and wireless networks requires a significant change in operational concepts of the battlefield surveillance. In particular, the introduction of a battlefield surveillance sensor network system is a big challenge to the ground forces which have lack of automated information collection assets. Therefore this paper proposes an ontology-based context-aware framework for the battlefield surveillance sensor network system which is needed for early finding the enemy and visualizing the battlefield in the ground force operations. Compared with the performance of existing systems, the one of the proposed framework has shown highly positive results by applying the context systems evaluation method. The framework has also proven to be satisfactory by the structured evaluation method using device collaboration. Since the proposed ontology-based context-aware framework has a lot of advantages in terms of scalability and reusability, the ground force's reconnaissance and surveillance system can be widely applied to expand in the future. And, ontology-based model has some weak points such as ontology data size, processing time, and limitation of network bandwidth. However, these problems can be resolved by customizing properly to fit the mission and characteristics of the unit. Moreover, development of the next-generation communication infrastructure can expedite the intelligent surveillance and reconnaissance service and may be expected to contribute greatly to expanding the information capacity.
