Abstract
Better decisions can be made in the profession of the users if they can easily access and filter out the relevant information from all available information sources. The mass availability of the mobile devices has enabled the users to quickly access timely information from any location. We have developed a novel approach to provide timely information in context by capturing contextual information. We developed a model to identify the context of the user by identifying the task being performed. The system through the domain experts, is aware of the information need and the information source for each task of the user and the relevant information is filtered from the information source, by using the users context. The context model was designed and tested for the farming domain, to support the livelihood activities of the farmer, by extending the concepts of social life networks.
