| description | Mobile phones nowadays are ubiquitous with our daily activities and the sensing ability of the device inspired us to propose context aware services to users in the academic environment. This paper presents the concept of a context aware solution using a proposed architecture from a theoretical perspective. The context-aware solution is a notification that delivers a text or call about certain information dissemination on events or activities that occurs as a result of unforeseen circumstances or situational changes in the institution on their mobile phones. The process is activated by a pop-up from the proxy server through the mobile portal database. This is followed up by a reminder from the server when necessary. This paper offers solution to a perennial problem that normally occur from traditional method of bill board or notice board placement of event such as examination time table or course schedule, as means of information dissemination to lecturers and students in the institution. The approach was simulated with phone simulator, and results shown to lecturers and students as presented in the paper were satisfactory. |
