Overview

In many countries, most votes are counted and transported
electronically, but there are numerous practical and policy
implications of introducing electronic machines into the voting
process. Both voting technology and its regulations are very much in
flux, with open concerns including accuracy, reliability, robustness,
security, transparency, equality, privacy, usability, and
accessibility.

USENIX is sponsoring the 2012 Electronic Voting Technology
Workshop/Workshop on Trustworthy Elections (EVT/WOTE '12). EVT/WOTE
brings together researchers from a variety of disciplines, ranging
from computer science and human-computer interaction experts through
political scientists, legal experts, election administrators, and
voting equipment vendors. EVT/WOTE seeks to publish original research
on important problems in all aspects of electronic voting.

EVT/WOTE '12 will be a two-day event, Monday, August 6, and Tuesday,
August 7, 2012, co-located with the 21st USENIX Security Symposium in
Bellevue, WA. In addition to paper presentations, the workshop may
include panel discussions with substantial time devoted to questions
and answers. The workshop papers will be published electronically.
Attendance at the workshop will be open to the public, although talks
and refereed paper presentations will be by invitation only. There
will be an award for the best paper.
