Crowd computing is a type of distributed work where tasks difficult for computers are completed by a large number of people online. It incorporates elements of crowdsourcing, automation, distributed computing, and machine learning to facilitate idea sharing, non-hierarchical decision making, and the use of collective intelligence. According to Prof. Rob Miller of MIT, crowd computing harnesses the power of web users to perform tasks that are challenging for individual users or computers, providing flexible, on-demand human resources for new applications and technological perspectives.
