Food security is threatened by the combined pressures of increasing populations and climate change. Agricultural land vulnerable to overexploitation environmental Within this review, we identify role multiple cropping systems as an adaptation method towards Intercropping, relay or simultaneous cultivation two more crops, agroforestry, incorporation trees on at least 10% agricultural land, provi...

Whilst there has been considerable research into the potential uses of digital games in the classroom, there has been less investigation into the educational value of Alternate Reality Games (ARGs). Unlike console or computer games, in ARGs the game-world is constructed through a combination of onand off-screen media, and is created and shaped through dynamic dialogue between the designers and ...

Over the last decade, Alternate Reality Games (ARGs), a form of narrative often involving multiple media and gaming elements to tell a story that might be affected by participants’ actions, have been used in the marketing and promotion of a number of entertainment related products such as films, computer games and music. This paper discusses the design, development and evaluation of an ARG aime...

Abstract The realm of alternate reality games is young, cutting-edge, with forms as varied and divergent as the evolving technologies that birth them. One of the distinguishing characteristics of augmented reality as a technology is the ability to register virtual obje...

Alternate Reality Games (ARG) can be used to reinforce classroom knowledge by encouraging collective learning practices and focusing on new media literacy skills. An ARG creates a game space from realworld locations by relying on information, both online and offline, to physically involve players in a game ‘space’. While the majority of large ARGs, to date, have been used as part of marketing c...

Intercropped corn (Zeu mays L.) and soybean [Glycine mux (L.) Merr.] may produce more total yield per hectare than either grown separately, ie., land equivalent ratio (LER) >l. Low N fertility, limited moisture, and weed competition have each been reported to result in high land equivalent ratios. Thus it was hypothesized that intercropping advantages were greater under stress conditions. The o...

Cropping pattern in the Himalayan region of India has undergone a significant change in the recent past. Introduction of horticultural crops such as vegetables, fruits and flowers has led to more intensive agriculture. Such a change, resulting in higher incomes and improvements of the overall living conditions has, however, been accompanied with increased income risk. This emphasizes the need f...

In this paper we discuss the threat of malware targeted at extracting information about the relationships in a real-world social network as well as characteristic information about the individuals in the network, which we dub Stealing Reality. We present Stealing Reality (SR), explain why it differs from traditional types of network attacks, and discuss why its impact is significantly more dang...
