SELECTIVE AUTOMATED TRANSFORMATION OF TASKS IN CROWDSOURCING SYSTEMS

摘要

An embodiment of the invention is associated with a system (100) disposed to post software related tasks to a crowdsourcing marketplace (108) for execution. Prior to posting a specified task, it is determined whether the specified task comprises a complex task (306). Responsive to determining that the specified task comprises a complex task, the specified task is evaluated with respect to a first criterion, to determine whether the specified task should be decomposed into two or more atomic tasks (308). Responsive to determining that the specified task does not comprise a complex task, the specified task is evaluated with respect to a second criterion, to determine whether the specified task should be combined with other tasks into a bundled task (310).
