Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The emergence of crowdsourcing brings high possibilities for solving complex tasks with crowd workers. In such environments, complex tasks are always decomposed into small subtasks that are controlled by workflows. However, uncertain ability and reliability of crowd workers make it difficult to define the best workflow beforehand. To provide flexible mechanisms for coordination of crowd workers, we propose a blackboard architecture for controlling the crowdsourcing environments. For example, multiple subtasks can be executed by multiple crowd workers in parallel, and next candidate subtasks are determined based on evaluation of workers' results. In the proposed blackboard architecture, the data-driven model enables the dynamic control of task execution by evaluating the reliability of workers' results, which are used to predict the ability of workers for improvement of execution control. Moreover, we use an example of complex task for Japanese-Indonesian translation to illustrate the proposed approach and discuss the possibility of applying blackboard architecture in crowdsourcing environments.
