Behavior Dynamics of Multiple Crowdsourcers in Mobile Crowdsourcing Markets

IEEE Network, 2016
Mobile crowdsourcing has shown great potential to address problems with large scale by outsourcing tasks to pervasive smartphone users. Smartphone users will join a crowdsourcer if they can receive satisfying rewards. In a mobile crowdsourcing market, smartphone users have free choice of crowdsourcers, and multiple crowdsourcers will interact with the ...

Mobile crowdsourcing in the wild

Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and Services Adjunct, 2018
Recent research has been devoted to designing mobile applications that encourage users to complete microtasks in everyday context, known as "mobile crowdsourcing". In this case study, we present our ongoing effort of a publicly-available mobile application, Crowdsource, that has over 540,000 global users from 200 countries or regions.

Architecture of Mobile Crowdsourcing Systems

2014
This paper proposes a general architecture and a classification scheme for mobile crowdsourcing systems, which are illustrated by two example applications. The aim is to gain a better understanding of typical functionalities and design aspects to be considered during development and evaluation of such collaborative systems.

Games for Crowdsourcing Mobile Content

Proceedings of the 16th ACM/IEEE-CS on Joint Conference on Digital Libraries, 2016
Crowdsourcing of mobile content through games is becoming a major way of populating information-rich online environments. A current research gap is that actual usage patterns of crowdsourcing games has been inadequately investigated. We address this gap by comparing content creation patterns in a game for crowdsourcing mobile content against a non-game

Mobile crowdsourcing [Editor's note]

IEEE Network, 2015
Crowdsourcing is the combination of two concepts, “crowd” and “outsourcing,” coined by Jeff Howe in 2006, and defined as “the act of taking a job traditionally performed by a designated agent (usually an employee) and outsourcing it to an undefined, generally large group of people in the form of an open call.” In modern society, the rapid advances of ...

Fusing Information, Crowdsourcing and Mobility

2014 IEEE 15th International Conference on Mobile Data Management, 2014
In this seminar we will consider how concepts of information fusion, crowdsourcing and mobility complement each other and accelerate novel advanced research directions in mobile data management. We will elaborate on each of those concepts and explore their synergy under a prominent scenario of situation assessment in multi-robot search and rescue ...

Mobile Crowdsourcing: Architecture, Applications, and Challenges

2015 IEEE 12th Intl Conf on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing and 2015 IEEE 12th Intl Conf on Autonomic and Trusted Computing and 2015 IEEE 15th Intl Conf on Scalable Computing and Communications and Its Associated Workshops (UIC-ATC-ScalCom), 2015
Crowd sourcing is the generalized act of outsourcing tasks, traditionally performed by employees or contractors, to a large group of Internet population (the wise crowd) by means of an open call. With the great development of smartphones with rich built-in sensors and ratio interfaces, mixing smartphone-based mobile technologies and crowd sourcing ...

Trustworthy crowdsourcing via mobile social networks

2014 IEEE Global Communications Conference, 2014
Use ol social network services has been more widespread as mobile social network applications have been developed for smart phones. Besides, smart phone sensing, namely Sensing-as-a-Service (S2aaS) provides the front-edge access to the cloud-centric Internet of Things.
