| Abstract: | A new Italian law regarding the recruitment of university researchers and teaching staff provides for election, on a national basis, of the members of the selection committees. In order to handle such a process, an electronic voting system has been developed which offers the necessary guarantees in terms of legitimacy, security, anonymity and secrecy both in the voting process and in the scrutiny. The system presented is based on standard cryptographic algorithms and has been in use by all Italian universities since June 1999. |
