Best of both worlds: Mitigating imbalance of crowd worker strategic choices without a budget

A Systematic Literature Review on Pricing Strategies in the Sharing Economy

“…To encourage workers to accomplish remote tasks, the requester can announce a price in the early period, and reprice the unaccomplished tasks in the late period [69]. However, this pricing scheme may cause an expanded budget and reduce the attractiveness of early period tasks; therefore, Shi, Zhao [70] proposed a price mediation mechanism based on an optimal branch-and-bound algorithm, under which requesters' profits, workers' profits, and social welfare are maximized. Furthermore, Zhou, Chen [64] also proposed a novel dynamic pricing iterative algorithm that prices tasks considering their supply-demand status.…”
