Marcos de Oliveira, Martin Purvis, Vasco Furtado · 2013 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Joint Conferences on Web Intelligence (WI) and Intelligent Agent Technologies (IAT) · 2013
WikiCrimes is a collaborative system where users can store information about crime occurrences in a georeferenced database. Anyone can access WikiCrimes to consult or add information to the database. In this paper we describe the further work done to extend the model and implementation of the WikiCrimes collaborative system as an Open Institutional Environment. The prototype implements an environment where commitments are used to define norms, and together with reputation bring social order to the system.
