Propagation
Propagation of network needs and wants through social media, beyond the flue boundaries of the OVN.
Propagation of non-sensitive digital assets beyond the flue boundaries of the OVN.
Propagation is key to the economic model of OVNs, which works on stigmergy, crowdsourcing almost all needed resources.
Broadcasting
This is the usual way of propagating information through social media, which is to post messages on social media channels and hope that someone will respond. Targeted propagation techniques can be used, to focus on specific groups and communities.
Example in the context of Sensorica
A project needs new skills or other types of resources. Project affiliates plan using the NRP-CAS by creating processes, where they express their needs. These processes can be easily shared on social media channels in order to extend the potential of resource acquisition.
Some of this can be automated using IfTTT (If This Than That).
Incentivized propagation
Attach incentives to messages propagation, reward referrals.
Example in the context of Sensorica
A project needs new skills or other types of resources. Project affiliates plan using the NRP-CAS by creating processes, where they express their needs. These processes can be easily shared on social media channels in order to extend the potential of resource acquisition. Shared processes track how they are shared through social media, and are able to assign rewards to individuals who propagated the information to the holder of the required resource.
See Bind [ask Tibi and Lai] - this concept needs to be developed further here!
Viral propagation
Some repositories offer mechanisms for viral propagation through social networks. These mechanisms are frictionless and thrive on people's motivation. They are enabled by share links or various types of syndication mechanisms.
