Standard-Based Integrated Management System Implemented for Heterogeneous Distributed Systems in Naval Ship Combat Management System

In response to higher price tags of software applications due to costly development efforts to scale them up, how to re-use legacy systems has drawn much attention. The navy has standardized the open-architecture combat system for that reason. This study suggests a method to apply already developed software and the one yet to be developed to an AMSM-based open-architecture common service environment. The system presented here deals with common services for management and monitoring based on an open architecture, representing heterogeneous systems using abstract information models independent of the system under management. The proposed method enables management and monitoring over the system without being affected by heterogeneous environment.
