The Complexity of Voting
نویسنده
چکیده
Voting, or more generally, aggregating preferences, makes systems complex. Consequently, their dynamics can be chaotic and hence difficult to predict or control. These statements are equally true for artificial multi-agent systems as for real political systems, counterindicating unreflexive use of such tools by policy makers. Similar analysis applies to systems with a continuum of alternatives, like election campaigns, and explains the ambiguity of candidates’ platforms.

Double voter perceptible blind signature based electronic voting protocol
Mu et al. have proposed an electronic voting protocol and claimed that it protects anonymity of voters, detects double voting and authenticates eligible voters. It has been shown that it does not protect voter's privacy and prevent double voting. After that, several schemes have been presented to fulfill these properties. However, many of them suffer from the same weaknesses. In this p...

متن کاملVoting and different ranking orders in DEA
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) technique now widely use for efficiency evaluation of a set of Decision Making Units (DMUs). As regards of the necessity for ranking efficient units different DEA models presented each of which has advantages and rank efficient units from special aspects. Note that all the existing ranking models have disadvantages, as well and there is not a model in which all t...
متن کاملAn improved approach for ranking the candidates in a voting system based on efficiency intervals
This paper proposes improvements and revisions to a recent approach in a voting system, and provides an effective approach with a stronger discriminate power. For this purpose, the advantage of a linear transformation is utilized to redene a previously used concept of virtual worst candidate, by incorporating the existing weight restrictions. Then, the best score of this virtual candidate is us...
متن کاملA New Voting Model For Groups With Members of Unequal Power and Proficiency
To proposing a voting model for groups with members of unequal power and proficiency, we present some models for rank ordering efficient candidates, by extending the ideas of some authors. Then, we propose a new methodology to rank the ranking models for the performance indices of only DEA efficient candidates based on a classical voting model. Also, an approach for combining the results obtain...
