Riemann, Robert. "Towards Trustworthy Online Voting : Distributed Aggregation of Confidential Data." Thesis, Lyon, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017LYSEN099/document.
Full textAggregation of values that need to be kept confidential while guaranteeing the robustness of the process and the correctness of the result is necessary for an increasing number of applications. Various kinds of surveys, such as medical ones, opinion polls, referendums, elections, as well as new services of the Internet of Things, such as home automation, require the aggregation of confidential data. In general, the confidentiality is ensured on the basis of trusted third parties or promises of cryptography, whose capacities cannot be assessed without expert knowledge.The ambition of this thesis is to reduce the need for trust in both authorities and technology and explore methods for large-scale data aggregations, that ensure a high degree of confidentiality and rely neither on trusted third parties nor solely on cryptography. Inspired by BitTorrent and Bitcoin, P2P protocols are considered.The first contribution of this thesis is the extension of the distributed aggregation protocol BitBallot with the objective to cover aggregations in P2P networks comprising adversarial peers with fail-stop or Byzantine behaviour. The introduced changes allow eventually to maintain an accurate result in presence of an adversarial minority.The encountered scalability limitations lead to the second contribution with the objective to support large-scale aggregations. Inspired by both BitBallot and BitTorrent, a novel distributed protocol called ADVOKAT is proposed.In both protocols, peers are assigned to leaf nodes of a tree overlay network which determines the computation of intermediate aggregates and restricts the exchange of data. The partition of data and computation among a network of equipotent peers limits the potential for data breaches and reduces the need for trust in authorities. The protocols provide a middleware layer whose flexibility is demonstrated by voting and lottery applications

Full textDet finns många positiva aspekter av elektroniska röstningssystem: säkerhet, verifierbarhet, bekvämlighet, resursbesparingar, och liknande. Emellertid så saknas det fortfarande hos allmänheten tillit till elektroniska röstningssystem. Ett av skälen till detta skulle kunna vara att idéerna i samband med elektronisk röstning är utmanande att förstå för allmänheten. I detta projekt har vi försökt att skapa allmän tillit med hjälp av ett förklaringssystem. Ett förklaringssystem tillverkades för att förklara hur ett modernt elektroniskt röstningssystem fungerar. Användartester utfördes därefter, för att verifiera huruvida detta förklaringssystem förmådde öka människors tillit till elektroniska röstningssystem. Efter analys av data insamlade genom användartesterna, fick vi lovande resultat som gav oss anledning att tro att detta slags förklaring kan användas för att skapa allmän tillit till elektroniska röstningssystem.

Full textThe use of ICTs such as computers, electronic databases and other technologies have been in use for a number of years within the public sector to organise, manage and disseminate information to the public as well as to facilitate day-to-day communication in government offices. In this context, the value of the use of ICTs has been to assist and streamline government operations. The technological development in South Africa has opened up the possibilities of the use of ICTs in the democratic and governance process. E-democracy has been defined as a tool for abandoning the representative system for one with more direct citizen engagement. This study sets out to explore the challenges of the current electoral process, and also determine the factors that could influence the adoption and diffusion of e-voting technologies within the South African context. Literature has shown that countries such as Brazil and India have successfully implemented electronic voting systems and other countries are at various piloting stages to address many challenges and problems associated with manual paper based system such as costs of physical ballot paper and other overheads, electoral delays, distribution of electoral materials, and general lack of confidence in the electoral process. It is in this context that the study also seeks to determine whether the South African electoral management body can leverage on the opportunities that e-voting presents. However, with all the benefits that e-voting presents, there are countries such Germany, the Netherlands etc. that have tried and tested e-voting systems and decided to abandon these system to go back to the manual paper ballot voting systems because of various reasons ranging from cost, security and verifiability. This research is exploratory in nature and adopts qualitative research approach and it is within the interpretivism paradigm. Survey and interview strategies were used to collect data. A purposive sampling method was used to select the participants for the survey. To gain an understanding of the views of voters and electoral management body (IEC) about the current electoral process and e-voting technologies, literature was explored, a questionnaire was distributed online to voters and an in-depth semi-structured interview was conducted with the IEC. The study targeted voters who had access to the internet since the survey questionnaire was distributed online. The analysis is based on thematic analysis and diffusion of innovation (DoI) theory was also used to provide an analytical framework for the study. Through this framework the aims and objectives of the study were conceptualized around three constructs from the theory (relative advantage, compatibility and complexity). The findings of the study revealed that the three constructs from the DoI framework are important factors that may influence the adoption process of e-voting technologies. The findings also revealed other factors such as availability of ICT enable infrastructure and resources, digital divide, trust in technology, awareness of the technology and environment could that also influence the adoption process. The contributions of this research are anticipated to be a better understanding of the adoption of e-voting technologies in South Africa. For the electoral management bodies, the contribution of this research is that the research to some extent portrays factors that could influence the adoption of e-voting technologies in South Africa. Therefore, findings such as availability of ICT infrastructure and accessibility of these infrastructures should be taken into consideration before introducing e-voting technologies. Keywords: DoI (diffusion of Innovation), e-voting (electronic voting) technologies, E-governance, e-participation.

Full textEste trabajo de tesis se centra en la relación entre desconfianza en los principales actores de representación política (partidos políticos y su elite) y voto a los partidos anti-establishment (AEP). Mientras esta investigación no cuestiona el argumento según el cual el voto a los AEP se debe en gran medida a la desconfianza política, lo que sí hace es arrojar nueva luz acerca de esta asociación. En primer lugar, sostenemos que la desconfianza política no solo tiene un impacto directo, sino también condicional sobre el voto a los AEP, especialmente si consideramos otros factores (como por ejemplo la economía). En segundo lugar, el voto a los AEP lleva a una ulterior desconfianza política. En otras palabras, la actitud política y el comportamiento electoral se refuerzan recíprocamente, activando un mecanismo de ‘espiral de la desconfianza’. Esos argumentos serán desarrollados a lo largo de tres artículos empíricos. En el primer paper, basado en un análisis agregado de la Encuesta Social Europea (2004-2016) y de los datos macroeconómicos obtenidos por el Eurostat, realizaremos un análisis multinivel para analizar los factores individuales y contextuales que explican el voto a los AEP. En el segundo artículo analizaremos, con inéditos datos de panel recolectados en España entre 2014 y 2016, el origen de Podemos y Ciudadanos en las elecciones de España del 2015. Finalmente, el tercer estudio, basado en un análisis comparado de cinco estudios de panel, analiza el impacto de haber votado por un AEP sobre el cambio en los niveles de desconfianza.

Full textSocial choice becomes a part of everyday life when groups of people are faced with decisions to make. We often adjust our personal beliefs with the respect to our friends. We are inherently dependent on the happiness of those near us. In this thesis, we investigate an existing empathy model that is used to select a winner in a set of alternatives by using scoring winner selection methods. We show that a slight modification of the model is enough to be able to use superior winner selection methods that are based on pairwise comparisons of alternatives. We show that there is essentially no reason to use scoring winner selection methods in the models proposed as a more desirable result is achieved by using superior winner selection methods.

Full textThe use of information technology to promote the automation of work processes is widely spread. Systems to automate the manufacturing processes and to support services delivery help to improve the productivity and have become an indispensable asset to be exploited by organizations wishing to have the competitive advantages essential to survive in a crowded marketplace. In the context of public sector, the automation process also moves quickly and new tools that streamline and reduce the costs of providing services to citizens are being implemented. The Brazilian electoral process followed the wave of informatization and is fully automated since 1998. However, the informatization of elections is a critical process due to various requirements related to the electoral process security. The scenario of an electoral process is composed of a set of interests, often conflicting, which should be harmonized by fair and clean elections. Computerization has advantages related to greater agility in the process of calculation and disclosure of the outcome of the elections, greater economy, greater flexibility, possibility of correcting errors made at the time of voting, inclusion of people with disabilities, among others. Reconcile the difficulties of implementing the requirements in an electoral system, specifically those conflicting, which shall ensure the legitimacy of the elections (voter privacy and guarantee of the integrity), to take advantage of the benefits that computerization provides, has been subject of academic research. This work presents a project to build a prototype of an embedded device that aims to increase economicity of the Brazilian electoral process. The device is intended to improve the activity of sending files containing the electronic votes, acquired in the Brazilian electronic ballot boxes, for counting and obtaining the result of the election. To improve security, the prototype makes use of encryption techniques to ensure that the channel used for transmission of results is secure. The economy for the electoral process will be guaranteed with a portable, lightweight, low energy consumption and robust device. Portable and smaller equipments can reduce the costs with the acquisition process, preparing and sending to the places where the electronic votes will be transmitted in order to be aggregated in centralized systems.

Full textOver the centuries, from Cheops to the Internet and from nanotechnology to teleportation, new technologies have constantly been at the centre of individuals’ lives. Produced by human intelligence, they appear to be a key to innovation, a tool for the dissemination of knowledge and they enable the progress and evolution of mankind. These new technologies obviously drew lawyers’ attention as they have a direct impact on society as a whole, but also more specifically on the relationship between employers and employees. Moreover, they tend to reshape the organisation of corporations and lead to the entanglement of professional and private life. As a matter of fact, labour law is under pressure: recruitment procedures can be altered by new technologies, the conclusion of employment contracts is nowadays electronic and instantaneous, and security and privacy rules have been established (not to mention electronic trade union communications, e-voting or e-meetings for staff representative bodies). In short, the whole framework is changing. Unfortunately, lawmakers are usually overtaken by events as science and law evolve at a very different pace. However, sooner or later, legal boundaries are set. Currently, courts’ main challenge is to try to make technological progress and protection of employees compatible

The microarray technology plays an important role of clinical oncology field. The patient can be diagnosed a symptom about cancer through microarray data. Currently, to solve classification of microarray data is still a wild open issue. Existing methods may have a good performance, but need to spend much time to analyze microarray data, such as SVM. In this thesis, we propose a novel GA-Fuzzy-based voting mechanism to find genes which affect the symptom to better diagnose patient. The proposed algorithm can blur the boundary between classes to handle the ambiguous regions. In order to simulate the gene selection mechanism, we proposed upper bound α-Cut and lower bound α-Cut in voting mechanism. Two groups of data collected from the literature are used to test the performance of the proposed algorithm. In the first group of dataset, experimental results show that the accuracies of five datasets using the proposed algorithm are better than those methods proposed by Pochet et al. But, there are the four datasets which the accuracies using the proposed algorithm are a little bit worse than the methods proposed by Pochet et al. For the second group of dataset, the accuracies of seven datasets using the proposed algorithm are better than KerNN proposed by Xiong and Chen. But, there are four datasets which the accuracies using the proposed algorithm are worse than KerNN proposed by Xiong and Chen. Nevertheless, experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs the best for multi-class data.

The many research literatures which are connected with the young voters are “does not vote” discussion the factors. However, the political situation in Taiwan has been hit by many incidents in recent years and created a phenomenon different from the past. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the change in voting behavior of the Taiwanese young voters.I first uses the thesis of Shih-Peng Liu from the Department of Political Science National Sun Yat-sen University as its research model to construct a voting model for the young voters who are suitable for this study. The data sets of TEDS2012 and TEDS2016, To track the voting behavior of young voters in Taiwan to see if there is any change in the voting intentions of young voters. In statistical analysis, the first is to use the chi-square test for independent correlation verification to test whether the set of independent and dependent variables show significant differences. Furthermore, a two-stage binomial logistic regression was performed. The binomial logistic regression in the first stage had not yet set the age as a control variable. In the second stage The binomial logistic regression is through age control, to explain the causal relationship between the independent and dependent variables. Finally, the difference between TEDS2012 and TEDS2016 was analyzed to show the changing factors of young voters' voting intentions. The results of this study show that the age-adjusted binomial logistic regression of the second stage of TEDS2012 shows the frequency of young voters' gender, religious beliefs, provincial origin, party preferences, political knowledge, political interests, and the frequency of watching TV , Candidate's evaluation, civil duty have a significant impact with voting participation . In the binomial logistic regression of the age-controlled for the second stage of TEDS2016, the gender, education, provincial origin, party preference, political knowledge, political interest, frequency of watching TV, the most frequently read newspaper type, civil duty have a significant impact with voting participation. Therefore, TEDS2012 and TEDS2016 are the most important factors influencing the change of voting intention of young voters in Taiwan, which is contrasted with the result of data analysis. Educational level, party preference and involvement in politics are the three variables.

In recent years, with the improvement of technologies, the numbers of data in the high dimension data sets are also increased and using feature extraction is one of the methods that can reduced dimension to solve the big data computational complexity problem. For hyperspectral imagery, in order to avoid increased the number of bands that cause Hughes Phenomena to classification accuracy decreased, using band selection as data pre-processing to reduced computational complexity in hyperspectral image data sets. There have been a number of scholars to propose several optimization algorithms-based band selection methods, but the selection methods were too stringent that cause dimensionality couldn’t be significantly reduced. Therefore, a new supervised band selection algorithm based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed in this paper. By using the PSO algorithm, the highly correlated bands of hyperspectral imagery can be grouped into the same modules, with a band prioritization method for statistics relationship between bands and classes, and finally selection bands from the statistics result by using weighted majority voting to reduced dimension in big data sets. Furthermore, the high correlation band information is integrated with the PSO algorithm during process updating phase that can make PSO algorithm more powerful in searching the large modules. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated by MASTER and AVIRIS hyperspectral images. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method not only could reduction the dimension of data sets by band selection, but also can offer a satisfactory classification performance.

Full textThe goal of this work is to research the application of cryptography in the security of the process of evaluation in on-line environments, creating a framework of protocols which is collectively called e-evaluation. More specifically, we begin by providing a description of an e-evaluation system in both the hardware and the software level and introducing suitable cryptographic techniques so as to satisfy the security requirements of the e-evaluation process, giving examples of applications where there is use of electronic evaluation procedures. In the first part of this work we research the way the concept of security is integrated within the process of evaluation, the reasons for which there is need for integrating security techniques in that process and the benefits we gain by them. Then we provide a short description of techniques being use in the electronic evaluation process as well as where and how cryptography is applied in them. In the second part, we provide a description of the cryptographic techniques and protocols that have applications in the e-evaluation framework and their mathematical background. In the third and final part, we make a presentation of the applications of e-evaluation in education.

A trusted electronic election system requires that all the involved information must go public., Howeverthat is, it focuses not only on transparency but also on privacy issues. In other words, each ballot should be counted anonymously, correctly, and efficiently. In this work, an effective eE-voting system is proposed for voters to minimize their trust in the authority or government. We ensure the transparency of election by putting all messages on the Ethereum blockchain;, in the meantime, the privacy of individual voter is protected via an effective ring signature mechanism. Besides, the attractive self-tallying feature is also built in our system, which guarantees that everyone who can access the blockchain network is able to tally the result on his own, i.e., no third party is required after the voting phase. More importantly, we ensure the correctness of voting results and keep the Ethereum gas cost of individual participant as low as possible, at the same time. ClearlyMoreover, the pre-describedpre-described characteristics of stealth address in omake our system makes it more suitable for large-scale election on line.
