So what's your definition?

  Well, awareness implies that there is a conscious experience; that sense perceptions are being processed into some kind of model of the world. Self awareness is additionally awareness of the self as an actor in the world. For animals the mirror test is often used. This requires the animal to recognise that a reflection of them is actually themselves and not another animal. Intention involves the ability to formulate a plan to reach some goal that matters to the individual. I see none of those in a piece of software that reads data from files and network sockets and deterministically responds to them with fixed software.
