E-Voting System Using GSM Mobile SMS

Haval Mohammed Sidqi

Abstract Electronic voting systems have the potential to improve traditional voting procedures by providing added convenience and flexibility to the voter. Numerous electronic voting schemes have been proposed in the past, but most of them have failed to provide voter authentication in an efficient and transparent way. On the other hand, GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) is the most widely used mobile networking standard. There are more than one billion GSM users worldwide that represent a large user potential, not just for mobile telephony, but also for other mobile applications that exploit the mature GSM infrastructure. In this paper, an electronic voting scheme using GSM mobile technology is presented. By integrating an electronic voting scheme with the GSM infrastructure, we are able to exploit existing GSM authentication mechanisms and provide enhanced voter authentication and mobility while maintaining voter privacy. In this paper, SMS has been used to send message which contain only code or identification of candidate , on the other hand used mobile to receive message and it is connected to a server to collect messages. KEYWORDSElectronic voting, Fault-Tolerance, Robustness, Mobile SMS
