Abstract

Crowdsourcing is an umbrella term for approaches that harness the diverse potential of large groups of people via an open call for contribution over the Web. Using information technology as a facilitator, crowdsourcing organizations implement socio-technical systems to channel the contributions of human workforce, knowledge, skills, or perspectives within and beyond organizational boundaries into the generation of digital information products and services. Crowdsourcing systems have recently gained in popularity for a multitude of organizational functions, such as problem solving, knowledge aggregation, content generation, and large-scale data processing.
