Abstract: Novel web-based socio-technical systems require incentives for efficient management and motivation of human workers taking part in complex collaborations. Incentive management techniques used in existing crowdsourcing platforms are not suitable for intellectually-challenging tasks; platform-specific solutions prevent both workers from comparing working conditions across different platforms as well as platform owners from attracting skilled workers. In this paper we present PRINGL, a domain-specific language for programming complex incentive strategies. It promotes re-use of proven incentive logic and allows composing of complex incentives suitable for novel types of socio-technical systems. We illustrate its applicability and expressiveness and discuss its properties and limitations.
