Cloud-working or Telework through Cloud Computing – Another Step towards Cloudsourcing

Abstract:

In this paper we aim to analyse two paradigms, from the perspective of the mutual recursivity between them: telework and cloud computing.  The main purpose of this scientific endeavour is to determine the level of support of each paradigm for the other and the synergic effect generated by their interdependence. We will approach functional, juridical and environmental issues. As result, we aim to highlight the way Cloud computing solutions may revolutionize all that is telework and who telework may be redefined through the transition to a superior level, called cloud-working. Finally, once the cloud-working paradigm has been established, we will try to determine to what extent it is a launch ramp for what current literature calls cloudsourcing.
