• 2009 challenge on wide
area collaboration
• Defense Advance
Research Project
Agency
• $40,000 prize to be first
at finding 10 balloons
around the United
States
• How long did the
winning team need to
find them?
9. How Did the MIT Team Win?
• Shared the reward
– $2000 correct
coordinates
– $1000 for whomever
invited them
– $500 for inviting the
inviter
– $250 for inviting them
– And so on…
• Created sustained activity
on Twitter (recursive

10. Theoretical Underpinnings
Multi-level Marketing
Query Incentive Network
• Participants are
compensated both for the
sales they make, and for
the sales of any
additional salespeople
downline they recruit.
• Pyramid scheme can be
an example
• Avon products are an
early business example
• Users can post a
question or request,
along with an incentive
for answering, which then
spreads widely through
the network.
• Games online can be a
good example
• Kleinberg & Raghavan,
Paper
11. Created a Recursive Incentive
Structure
• Jargon for “teamwork”
• People cooperate toward
a shared goal and
subsequently are
rewarded for the impact
of their contribution(s).
• Allowed anyone –
anywhere to play, leading
to a final team of 5000
helpers
12. Quality Control Tactics
1. Multiple entries
indicating same
coordinates were likely
accurate
2. Check IP address of
submitter & compare to
location claim
3. Examine photos
accompanying
submission for DARPA
logos
13. What Was The Challenge?
• Competition to win
• Large scale, geographically dispersed information
• Nontraditional problem requiring nontraditional
solution

15. MyHeartMap Challenge: Penn Med
• Contest for team/individual to report the location
of a maximum number of Automatic External
Defibrillators (AED)
• $10,000 prize of 750 AEDs reported in total, or
500 reported by a single entry; also 200 “golden”
AEDs which earn the submitting team $50
• January 31 – March 13, 2012
• More than 1500 AEDs submitted by 300+ teams
• 2 $9000 prizes to two people submitting 400+
each
• Database given to the public and 911
26. Misdirect: Networks, not Information
• The defining characteristic of the modern
age is networks
– All societies have had information (e.g., Ancient
Athens and Rome)
– Digital networks are unique to the current age
– Networks, for the first time, can be a sustained
structure for organizing people and work

model
that
enables
real-‐time
delivery
of
configurable

resources
( for
