Summary/Abstract |
Military systems exploiting new technologies must meet the requirements of International Humanitarian Law (IHL), but advanced processing and networks raise problems for legal reviews. Tony Gillespie examines the engineering solutions to these challenges, especially the problems of increased system complexity and increased autonomy. He concludes that full compliance with IHL can be achieved as part of a properly planned procurement process, even for radically new technologies. This requires cross-disciplinary collaboration from the earliest concept and design stages.
