DRE-i and Self-Enforcing E-Voting
نویسنده
چکیده
This chapter1 describes a research experience of designing, implementing and trialling a new e-voting system called Direct Recording Electronic with Integrity (DRE-i). DRE-i is an example of a new category of voting systems that are end-to-end (E2E) verifiable without involving any tallying authorities. Such voting systems are termed “self-enforcing e-voting”.

Every Vote Counts: Ensuring Integrity in Large-Scale Electronic Voting
This paper presents a new End-to-End (E2E) verifiable e-voting protocol for large-scale elections, called Direct Recording Electronic with Integrity (DRE-i). In contrast to all other E2E verifiable voting schemes, ours does not involve any Tallying Authorities (TAs). The design of DRE-i is based on the hypothesis that existing E2E voting protocols’ universal dependence on TAs is a key obstacle ...

This paper presents a new electronic voting system, called Direct Recording Electronic with Integrity (DRE-i). The DRE is a widely deployed voting system that commonly uses touch-screen technology to directly record votes. However, a lack of tallying integrity is widely considered the most contentious problem with the DRE system. In this work, we take a broad interpretation of the DRE: which in...
متن کاملDRE-ip: A Verifiable E-Voting Scheme Without Tallying Authorities
Nearly all verifiable e-voting schemes require trustworthy authorities to perform the tallying operations. An exception is the DRE-i system which removes this requirement by pre-computing all encrypted ballots before the election using random factors that will later cancel out and allow the public to verify the tally after the election. While the removal of tallying authorities significantly si...

In this paper, we propose and have implemented the rst veri able classroom voting system. The subject of secure classroom voting has so far received almost no attention from the security community. Though several commercial classroom voting systems have been available, none of them is veri able. State-of-the-art veri able voting protocols all rely on nding a set of trustworthy tallying authorit...
