Non-Lethal Weapons: Striking Experiences in a Non-Cooperative Environment
In missions to stabilize conflicts around the world, the military forces increasingly find themselves operating amongst the people. The emerging need in military interventions to prevent casualties translated into a range of value driven military technological developments, such as non-lethal weapons (NLW). NLWs can be characterized by a certain technological and operational design ’window’ of ...
متن کاملLethal weapons: DAP-kinase, autophagy and cell death: DAP-kinase regulates autophagy.
Recently, DAP-kinase was identified as one of the essential regulators of autophagy, activated by signals such as cytokines and ER stress. DAP-kinase is a tumor suppressor that mediates several cell death pathways, such as apoptosis and programmed necrosis. Likewise, functional studies suggest that DAP-kinase may direct autophagy specifically towards autophagic cell death. Several recent studie...
متن کاملLogical Limitations to Machine Ethics with Consequences to Lethal Autonomous Weapons
Lethal Autonomous Weapons promise to revolutionize warfare — and raise a multitude of ethical and legal questions. It has thus been suggested to program values and principles of conduct (such as the Geneva Conventions) into the machines’ control, thereby rendering them both physically and morally superior to human combatants. We employ mathematical logic and theoretical computer science to expl...
متن کاملNon-lethal effects of predation risks Non-lethal effects of predation in birds
Predators can affect individual fitness and population and community processes through lethal effects (direct consumption or ‘density’ effects), where prey is consumed, or through non-lethal effects (trait-mediated effects or interactions), where behavioural compensation to predation risk occurs, such as animals avoiding areas of high predation risk. Studies of invertebrates, fish and amphibian...
متن کاملLiving Weapons: Biological Weapons and International Security
In the summer of 1996, as a (much younger) Army infectious disease physician, I headed off to a new assignment with the US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) at Fort Detrick, Maryland. It was a heady time to be entering the niche fi eld of biodefense. Five years before the events of 9/11 and the subsequent “Amerithrax” attacks would become an integral part of the ...
