http://www.icdim.org/workshop.php
University of Macau, Macau
August 22-24, 2012

* About the Workshop 

In the recent period, the potential of crowdsourcing in business and social 
context (Gowdy et al.,),  enterprise resource planning software  (Leimeister 
et al) and many other fields are visualized to systematically design and 
implement  the Information Technology -based ideas  and to deploy in many 
newer intelligent applications. Crowdsourcing deployment not only addresses 
the access to systems and connections, but adds discussions and research in 
the problem- specific skills and technologies. 

Crowdsourcing as an online distributed problem-solving and production model 
has potential to pull creators and innovators for creating a new generation 
of collective intelligence. To address the potential of Crowdsourcing and to 
create a newer forum, the workshop on "Emerging problem- specific 
Crowdsourcing Technologies' is planned.
