Business process crowdsourcing : concept, ontology and decision support
This book conceptualises and develops crowdsourcing as an organisational business process. It argues that although for many organisations crowdsourcing still implies an immature one-off endeavour, when developed to a more repeatable business process it can harness innovation and agility. The book offers a process model to guide organisations towards the establishment of business process crowdsourcing (BPC), and empirically showcases and evaluates the model using two current major crowdsourcing projects. In order to consolidate the domain knowledge, the BPC model is turned into a heavyweight ontology capturing the concepts, hierarchical relationships and decision-making relationships necessary to establish crowdsourcing as a business process in an organisation. Lastly, based on the ontology it presents a decision tool that provides advice on making informed decisions about the performance of business process crowdsourcing activities.

S21.4 Spurring innovation in improving community engagement for STI prevention
Improving the input from the community is an approach for STI Prevention. For example, by engaging the contribution of the community, a ‘pay-it-forward’ dramatically improved chlamydia and gonorrhea testing among Chinese men who have sex with men (MSM). In this presentation, we summarized how innovative tools were used to engage different groups of the population for STI prevention. First, crowdsourcing approaches were used to solicit the inputs from the community for developing new intervention approaches, designing intervention messages, and evaluating intervention programs. Crowdsourcing involves a group of non-experts and experts working together to solve a problem and then sharing solutions with the public. Second, designathon and hackathon methods were adjusted to develop STI intervention messages and platforms among key populations. For example, in China, a 3-day designathon (hackathon-like event) was hosted to develop an HIV testing service strategy for MSM, while MSM were invited to join the event. In 2019, a hackathon event was also conducted in China to develop a platform for MSM to seek for gay-friendly health service. Third, social-marketing and other participatory approaches were used to develop intervention tools for improving STI services.DisclosureNo significant relationships.

The Register Variation in Translated Epidemic Prevention Manuals as Emergency Language Services
Using Biber's MD model, this paper investigates the register variation in crisis translation and discovers that learned exposition is the text type that comes closest to crisis translation. Crisis translation has “explicit” and “informational” features, according to statistics. When compared to the non-translational “learned and scientific” corpus, the translated corpus includes feature of “nominalization.” Furthermore, the researchers discovered that in Biber's MD model, the variables AWL and PHC had a strong liner connection with NOMZ.
