This chapter problematizes traditional approaches to understanding context as an analytical category, and, instead, it suggests engaging it differently, as members’ concern continually made present through particular kinds of attention and action. The authors elaborate on this via illustrative empirical exemplars from shadowing-based study of chief executives in the UK’s National Health Service. These examples demonstrate the ways in which context was actively made to matter by CEOs making connections and giving particular meaning in district work situations. Building on these examples, it offers a number of analytical and methodological contributions, as well as outlines implications, including those for the literature on managerial work, power, and relational prospective sensemaking.

The Covid-19 pandemic is causing massive restrictions on public life worldwide, affecting the work of parliamentarians in their districts as well . Based on interviews with 33 mem­bers of the German Bundestag, activities “back home” during the early phase of the pan­demic are analyzed and compared to information from an earlier study . After a brief phase of adaptation, new digital ways of work were used by MPs and their district offices, some­times leading to closer networking with party and constituency and giving them new spa­tial flexibility . A strong use of new social media also became apparent but that is only partly caused by Covid-19 . The focus of representation has changed towards a clearer regional orientation and more pronunciation of the leadership function . But all in all, district work of MPs in Germany has continued with only minor changes .

In this study there were 4 diseases studied and 7 symptoms. From the 4 disease data, isolation of the problem area, target decision and dependency diagram is made. After that the formation of IF – THEN rules, after the rules are made, the backward chaining process is made. So as to produce a solution to overcome disease in cattle. In program testing is done by comparing the results of the system with experts. In the trials that have been carried out, the results obtained are appropriate or the accuracy of the data and facts obtained from experts on cattle.
