Electronic Voting Systems - From Theory to Implementation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Electronic voting for local, regional and national elections and referenda is developing rapidly at a global scale as an efficient and low cost alternative to conventional methods of voting, with a positive impact on the quality of democratic representation. Still, despite the growing international experience, the harmonization of electronic voting systems with the legal and statutory frameworks poses a number of major legal, social and implementation challenges, subject to the national environment. This paper presents an overview of legal and social aspects of an electronic voting system focusing on the case of Greece.

However, many of them suffer from the same weaknesses. In this p...

متن کاملThe Theory and Implementation of an Electronic Voting System
We describe the theory behind a practical voting scheme based on homomorphic encryption. We give an example of an ElGamal-style encryption scheme, which can be used as the underlying cryptosystem. Then, we present efficient honest verifier zero-knowledge proofs that make the messages in the voting scheme shorter and easier to compute and verify, for voters as well as authorities, than in curren...
متن کاملSelf - Enforcing Electronic
Verifiable electronic voting has been extensively researched for over twenty years, but few protocols have achieved real-life deployment. A key impediment, we argue, is caused by the existing protocols' universal reliance on the probity of the tallying authorities. This might seem surprising to many people as dependence on tallying authorities has been a de facto standard in the field. However,...
