Abstract

This paper focuses on the impacts of mission requirements and environmental conditions on the decision to incorporate autonomous components into a cognitive system. The costs of autonomy are discussed, along with the benefits, and the interrelationships between the environmental context and task requirements are explored with respect to the application of autonomous systems. We address two fundamental questions: "Given the environment and the design goals of the intelligent system, can autonomy be enabled? Second, if it can be, should it be?"
