Recently, crowdsourcing has been widely adopted in academia and industry alike, as a new paradigm for enlisting members of the general public to perform tasks that cannot be performed correctly by machines, and/or are traditionally undertaken by dedicated employees. Typical applications are in data collection, classification and/or enrichment. Crowdsourcing is often subdividing tedious work into small work units, a.k.a. micro-tasks. It combines the efforts of numerous self-identified volunteers or part-time workers, where each contributor of their own initiative adds a small portion to the greater result. The objective of the first edition of CrowdServ which will be co-located with the International Conference on Service Oriented Computing (ICSOC) at Paris Dauphine University is to bring researchers and practitioners from the service oriented computing arena to discuss two fundamental issues:
The topics of the workshop include (but are not limited to) the following topics:
Submissions Our purpose is not to create yet another "mini-conference" workshop that has nothing but paper presentations. We are eager to receive short papers and vision papers describing challenges for crowdsourcing service management research, brief descriptions of new applications, pie-in-the sky research ideas, and anything that will create a successful workshop discussions. As such, we will seek two kind of submissions:
![]() Papers must be submitted through EasyChair. The postproceedings of the workshops will be published by Springer in a joint LNCS volume with the other ICSOC workshops. Important dates
