Stuart Reeves and Scott Sherwood. 2010. Five design challenges for human computation. In Proceedings of the 6th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction: Extending Boundaries (NordiCHI '10). ACM, New York, NY, USA, 383-392.

 

    作者Stuart Reeves在诺丁汉大学获得博士学位，写这篇论文时在格拉斯哥大学，目前又回到诺丁汉大学的Horizon数字经济研究所做research fellow。他感兴趣的研究方向是"investigating and analysing the social aspects of human-computer interaction"。

    在本文中作者主要提出了5条设计human computation系统的原则。

(1) Designing for motivation and sustainability.

文中列了几种motivation: fun, altruism, social interaction, payment, competition等。

(2) Balancing system design and user practices through orientation and framing.

(3) Using situatedness as a resource.

(4) Organising human-machine relations.

(5) Reconsider the utility of machine analogies in human computation.

 

论文中其他关注点：

1. (abs)中作者说明了是从以下几个来源总结出本文提到的几个原则：（1）自己团队开发HC系统的经验；（2）HCI方面的发表作品；（3）其他科学与工程领域的发表作品；（4）相关商业系统。

2. (p2)介绍了作者开发的"mobile human computation system" – EyeSyp， 后面介绍原则时都用到了EyeSpy为例，所以有必要在此了解此系统。

3. (p4#"What do we mean by human computation?")中探讨了human computation的边界。
