Context Aware Computing?

What does context aware computing mean? What is the advantages of context aware computing compared to traditional computing model? What are some potential disadvantages

Context is a powerful, and longstanding, concept in human-computer interaction. Interaction with computation is by explicit acts of communication (e.g., pointing to a menu item), and the context is implicit (e.g., default settings). Context can be used to
interpret explicit acts, making communication much more efficient. Thus, by carefully embedding computing into the context of our lived activities, it can serve us with minimal effort on our part. Communication can be not only effortless, but also naturally fit in with our ongoing activities. Pushing this further, the actions we take are not even felt to be communication acts at all; rather, we just engaged in normal activities; and the computation becomes invisible (e.g., Norman, 1998).
