The radio was the most and only reliable media capable of disseminating remedial information for methods of curing and preventing the outbreak of animal and crop diseases. However, this mode of media faced the challenges of majority of peasant farmers not owning radios, and as a result, they did not access such services. In addition, the distance among the peasant farmers hindered people sharing such resources. Nevertheless, the mushrooming owning of mobile phones by the majority of peasant farmers made information sharing possible. It was in view of that that the integration of ICTs on radio programs, in this work abbreviated as II-RP, was envisaged to disseminate remedial information to peasant farmers in remote areas of Zambia. The II-RP, a mobile built system, allowed farmers and agriculture officers to share the awareness information and sensitization of methods of farming.

Awareness Context

This article discusses the interest of emerging a unified view for group awareness and context information on groupware and context-aware systems. Group awareness corresponds to an important concept on Groupware applications, allowing individual users to be kept aware of group's activities and status. Context is defined by ubiquitous computing as any relevant information that can be used to characterize the situation of an entity. We assume that group awareness information should be considered as context information and handled as such. Group awareness information is often employed for decision making, contributing to users' activities and decisions, but it gives also an important clue about user's context, characterizing individual's actions regarding the group. As such, group awareness may be used for adaptation purposes, adapting the system behavior, the supplied content or its services. Besides, architectural concerns adopted on context-aware system should also be considered when developing new groupware applications that are more and more designed as context-aware systems.

Lessons learned from the community cyber security exercises showed common threads each community needed to focus on in order to improve the community's cyber security posture. These similarities were grouped into four areas of improvement called dimensions. The dimensions are awareness, information sharing, policies, and planning. The methods in which communities can implement improvement are called implementation mechanisms. These mechanisms are common approaches used every day such as establishing metrics, implementing technologies, creating processes and procedures, and conducting training and assessments.

Collaborative Context

The normal context-aware applications mainly focus on the information acquisition and processing from isolated sensor nodes or devices, which make the applications lack of the ability of information sharing and cooperation. This paper introduces collaborative idea into intelligent context-aware environment, establishes a common framework and model for collaborative context-awareness, and specifies the workflow of collaborative intelligent sensing. The proposed modeling and processing method can be effectively used in smart home and other application scenarios, which can improve the reliability and accuracy of perception, and improve the efficiency of the context-awareness processing obviously.
