I have played a bit with netlogo over the holidays and produced a very simple model which demonstrates a difference between crowdsourcing and crowd tasking. All it does is to implement two types of agents which can report on "issues":
The model nicely demonstrates the obvious: taskable volunteers are much better at confirming the findings than the random walkers.
I see plenty of possibilities for improving this model, but I am not sure what to go for first. Motivation? Different task types? More intelligent tasking mechanism? GIS? Service API?
In your opinion, what is/are the most important features which this crowdsourcing/ crowd tasking model should implement?
