Abstract

The well-established concept of crowdsourcing refers to the collective intelligence harbored from crowds across the globe with the aid of digitalization and social networks. Its growing success and diversity are owed to the development of the internet and the World Wide Web (WWW). With the social components in web technologies, crowdsourcing has reached new grounds, projecting new possible crowd operations through the virtual world. This paper discusses the social features in web technologies and their support to social intelligent computing in crowdsourcing by first identifying the social components and then interlinking them with crowdsourcing tasks to highlight the social reasons for their success. Also, the implications of crowdsourcing are explored to understand the social areas that are yet to be addressed. The results of this study acknowledge that the development of the social components is the backbone to crowdsourcing's robustness.
