1st Workshop on Advances in Secure Electronic Voting
A Workshop Associated with Financial Crypto 2016
February 26, 2016
Accra Beach Hotel & Spa
Barbados
Overview
Secure voting protocols, in particular so-called end-to-end verifiable schemes, have been a hot topic of research for the last decade or so. This research has spawned several workshops and the founding of a new journal: JETS. Voting poses many challenges: the precise characterization of very subtle properties including verifiability and coercion resistance, and the design and analysis of schemes providing these properties. The field requires a deep understanding of modern crypto but is also highly interdisciplinary, requiring understanding of the role of humans, procedures etc.
