The role of crowdsourcing in the emerging Internet-of-Things
The role of crowdsourcing in the emerging Internet-of-Things
In this position paper we wish to propose and discuss several open research questions associated with the IoT. In particular, we wish to consider how crowdsourcing can be used as a scalable, reliable, and sustainable approach to support various computationally difficult and ambiguous tasks recognised in IoT research. We illustrate our work by examining a number of use cases related to healthcare and smart cities, and finally consider the future development of the IoT ecosystem with respect to the socio-technical philosophy and implementation of the Web Observatory.

Abstract
In this position paper we wish to propose and discuss several open research questions associated with the IoT. In particular, we wish to consider how crowdsourcing can be used as a scalable, reliable, and sustainable approach to support various computationally difficult and ambiguous tasks recognised in IoT research. We illustrate our work by examining a number of use cases related to healthcare and smart cities, and finally consider the future development of the IoT ecosystem with respect to the socio-technical philosophy and implementation of the Web Observatory.
