Information, big data and autonomy Integrating autonomous systems - Defence is interested in addressing the integration challenges of operating these new autonomous systems with legacy military capabilities. From a people perspective - what are the opportunities, costs and risks of introducing autonomous systems? How do we effectively integrate people with autonomous systems and define the boundaries and interfaces? Ministry of Defence, 2018

Information, big data and autonomy Autonomous systems – What are the ways Defence could exploit autonomy and autonomous systems in military operations and potentially at lower cost than traditional high-end military platforms? What is the range of potential benefits of utilising autonomous systems in Defence; greater areas covered, persistent effects, or removing personnel from immediate danger? How can we reduce the need for human involvement in difficult, mundane and dangerous tasks such as bomb disposal, force protection or decontamination? Ministry of Defence, 2018

Information, big data and autonomy Data Science and Decisions - How can MOD harness the benefits of data science? How do we build trust in automated systems? How do we integrate multiple sources of information with differing levels of uncertainty and represent this effectively and efficiently to busy decision makers? Ministry of Defence, 2018

Information, big data and autonomy Reducing Cognitive Load - Greater access to data, information and services will challenge the cognitive loading on personnel. How can new technology help reduce this burden through, for example, autonomous software agents? Which functions could be carried out by machine and, conversely, what decisions will still need to be taken by human operators to ensure compliance with legal and ethical standards? How do we integrate these advances into our command and control systems? Ministry of Defence, 2018

Information, big data and autonomy Ubiquitous sensing and processing - in the future, sensors will become smaller and cheaper leading to their wide availability both in civilian applications and in defence. They will also be available to our adversaries. How they are deployed and how the information they generate is managed and used will be key. We need to understand how they will be networked and how automation could be exploited to task and manage them. Ministry of Defence, 2018
