Abstract :
The increase usage of C4I systems in defense and civil era had made it more imperative and attractive. Therefore, we can witness that the researchers, analysts, designers and developers had taken much interest in C4I systems. This paper describes a comparative analysis of defense industry frameworks such as DODAF, MODAF, NAF and UPDM. These frameworks had used in design and development process of defense information systems for instance, C4I systems. In this work, we used multi criteria software for comparative analysis of different defense industry frameworks. Further, results obtained by experiments are discussed. This effort done in this paper may be utilized by the researchers in two different possible ways, either by using the results directly obtained in this paper or by extracting the results by similar approach but on different architecture frameworks (AFs) in the field of C4I Systems.
