Abstract


E-voting is a service or system which serves to get individual human inputs and to sumarize them to a ceratain group decision. Usually, e-voting is a take for e-government part, but in this paper we consider e-voting for particular and specific population. The proposed e-voting system is intended for student population and student parliament election. In this paper, we describe concept of P.U.T. (personal unique token) and ways to distribute P.U.T.s to students. At the end, we present a software which is designed for the student parliament use case.

Keywords

e-voting, EVS (electronic voting system), P.U.T., randomizer, secure distribution, student parliament, UML (unified modeling language).
