The workshop was very enlightening, although not directly applicable to my current research field, the problems in crowdsourcing are gaining traction and theoretical applications of network structure to solve or produce HITs and tasks are a possibility in the horizon. My hope is to include ore aspect of network structure as determining of their function, to eventually answer questions that move the inclusion of crowds as black boxes to tools with known potentialities. In this sense, the proposed task compiler for crowds maybe an initial step. Therefore, my participation in this workshop has given me a new understanding of this potential application of control theory approach to networks.
