WOTE 2006 CONFERENCE

["John Ross" <ross@secstan.com>]

Attached is a paper I have submitted to the WOTE conference, it covers the need for an  accreditation framework for electoral systems, such a framework could be used for assessing and certifying both the security and  EML conformance aspects. It complements John Borras’s paper on EML by illustrating how trust can be built into systems which support EML and how open interfaces conforming to EML would be an implicit part of such an accreditation framework. Any comments are welcome.

John Ross
