Organizing Committee
There is great untapped potential for foundational mathematical research to influence and shape the future of human computation. Indeed there is already a small literature on the use of mathematical models to analyze and design human computation systems including crowdsourcing markets, prediction markets, and user-generated content sites. However, we are far from having a full systematic understanding of the possibilities and limitations of human computation.
This workshop will bring together researchers across disciplines to discuss the future of research on the mathematical foundations of human computation, with particular emphasis on the ways in which theorists can learn from the existing empirical literature on human computation and the ways in which applied and empirical work on human computation can benefit from mathematical foundations.

The workshop will be held at the primary conference venue, the AT&T Executive Conference Center.
