View source for Crowdsourced Problem Solving


=Description=

Katarina Stanoevska-Slabeva:

· "The second form is the problem solving or Crowd Casting Network in which someone with the problem broadcasts it to a large undefined network of potential solvers.

For example, the shoe company ‘Fluevog’ is crowdsourcing designs for new shoes.

Another example is the online platform [[InnoCentive]] on which companies can source for solutions for scientific problems.

These two crowdsourcing examples are also [[Selective Crowdsourcing]]. However, according to (Schenk & Guittard 2011), this type of crowdsourcing can also be ‘integrative’ or consolidating crowdsourcing.

The goal of [[Integrative Crowdsourcing]] is to create a complete solution by integrating complementary contributions from the crowd. An important aspect of integrative crowdsourcing is the definition of clear interfaces among single complementary contributions."
