“…ey focused on decision modeling rather than physical modeling because combat effectiveness is closely related to the tactics of the defense CPS under certain conditions. Zhu et al [18] introduced domain-specific metamodeling with two orthogonal dimensions. Ontological modeling locates a model element from a domain-definition perspective, and linguistic modeling is concerned with modeling language definition.…”

“…Various M&S methods for defense CPSs have been used over the last decade. Some researchers have proposed classification methods for CPS models [16][17][18][19], and others have developed simulation systems with diverse modeling languages [20][21][22]. e collective contribution of these studies has been to suggest meaningful modeling methods and simulation software for defense CPSs.…”

From the perspective of the system of systems development, system-level functional testing is required for designing subsystems. This study utilizes modeling and simulation techniques to analyze the operational behaviors of the subsystems and confirm data communication between them. The targeted system in the study is a naval combat system (NCS), which is a typical type of defense cyber-physical system (CPS). Three types of models were designed for the simulation testing of the NCS: a combat-management model for simulating the overall computational activities, physical models to confirm the intrasubsystem behaviors, and data integration models to test the intersubsystem communications. These models are realized with the Model-View-ViewModel design pattern, which strongly facilitates graphical user interfaces being decoupled from model logic and data. We consider underwater combat scenarios as an application. Six significant physical subsystems within the NCS are simulated and tested: a ship-steering system, an inertial navigation system, a global navigation satellite system, a periscope, sonar systems, and a plotting board. We expect that the proposed work will play a principal role when analyzing the behaviors and communications of defense CPSs and providing an environment for functional testing as a digital twin.

“…Then, the defined types (components, ports, messages, connectors) can be used to define the run-time configuration of a system. Altogether, this is a typical component-based language, in the style of component-connector languages (Garlan & Shaw, 1993), and languages for component-based simulation (Zhu, Lei, Alshareef, Sarjoughian, & Zhu, 2018). Altogether, while this solution works in practice, it leads to a heavy replication of elements at the meta-model level, causing an increase of the accidental complexity of the meta-model (Atkinson & Kühne, 2008;Macías et al, 2017).…”
