传统上，一个国家的选举制度要求选民在特定的日期和地点投票，这与现代生活方式中常见的流动性相冲突。因此，互联网（移动的）宽带接入的广泛应用可以被视为解决这种移动性问题的机会，即采用互联网投票系统可以使选民的生活更加方便;然而，广泛采用互联网投票系统依赖于开发可信系统的能力，即可验证并保护选民隐私的系统。建立这样一个系统仍然是一个开放的研究问题。我们的贡献是一个新的互联网投票系统：EVIV，一个高度健全的端到端可验证的互联网投票系统，它提供了充分的选民的移动性，并保护选民的隐私，从投票PC，即使选民投票从公共PC，如PC在网吧或公共图书馆。此外，EVIV具有私有投票验证机制，其中投票者只需执行两个小字符串（4-5个字母数字字符）的简单匹配，该机制检测并防止在不安全的投票客户端平台和选举服务器侧的投票操纵。
Traditionally, a country's electoral system requires the voter to vote at a specific day and place, which conflicts with the mobility usually seen in modern live styles. Thus, the widespread of Internet (mobile) broadband access can be seen as an opportunity to deal with this mobility problem, i.e. the adoption of an Internet voting system can make the live of voter's much more convenient; however, a widespread Internet voting systems adoption relies on the ability to develop trustworthy systems, i.e. systems that are verifiable and preserve the voter's privacy. Building such a system is still an open research problem. Our contribution is a new Internet voting system: EVIV, a highly sound End-to-end Verifiable Internet Voting system, which offers full voter's mobility and preserves the voter's privacy from the vote casting PC even if the voter votes from a public PC, such as a PC at a cybercafé or at a public library. Additionally, EVIV has private vote verification mechanisms, in which the voter just has to perform a simple match of two small strings (4–5 alphanumeric characters), that detect and protect against vote manipulations both at the insecure vote client platform and at the election server side.
