An Internet Based Electronic Voting System Project Summary The objectives of the project are to design, implement and validate an Internet-based electronic voting system that will provide the required services for organizing and conducting a voting process. The main functionalities that the e-VOTE system will support are ballot generation, specification of voting precincts, voters registration and credential validation, calculation of the vote tally and communication of candidate parties with the public. The system will be accessible through, mainly, conventional Web browsers, and WAP-enabled mobile phones. Furthermore, it will exhibit a Voting Protocol that can prevent opportunities for fraud or for sacrificing the voter's privacy, by implementing a wide set of security criteria and thus enjoying much of the trust and confidence of voters and process organizers. Personnel specializing on voting procedures, legal aspects, as well as on the sociological and behavioral aspects of such processes and systems will be employed for testing e-VOTE’s acceptability.

New E-work Techniques in Micro-enterprises Project Summary NEWTIME’s aim is to determine the success factors and typical problems for migration of micro-business IST networks from first generation low bandwidth, telework-enabled, networks towards networks with broadband IST at their core. Objectives include identifying the tools and techniques most valuable in new generation networks; identifying the individual technical and social skills as well as organisational needs emerging from first encounters between micro-businesses and high bandwidth access (ISDN, ADSL, SDSL, UMTS); reviewing the place of facilitation/mentoring; and linking to economic development and SME facilitation activities. Development guidelines and case studies exemplifying best-practice synthesised from NEWTIME results will be widely disseminated in the IST and product design communities, business schools, SME advisors/trainers and to early adopting micro-businesses.

Trust frame for electronic documents exchange between European judicial operators Project Summary Civil procedural system for the resolution of conflicts, is by definition, a complex system, where several organizations interrelationed to each other take part, developing its activity following procedures very varied. Owing to the fact the judicial system has great secure and confidential requirements and procedures very established, always it has been very reluctant to the introduction of the new IST. The official communications between the Courts and the Attorneys and these with the Registrars, continuous being through certificated mail, and mainly, personally. This fact entails the following problems: Slowness in the processes, Possibility of mistakes and loss, Lack of security, responsibility identification and trust, as well as, historic registers maintenance and Task duplicity. These problems will increase when the constitution of the global market is real. At this moment, very near, the market between European countries will increase substantially. That will create a rise in the communication between European Mercantile and Land Registrars. Additionally, if a dynamic communication, between the European Judicial operators is the target, the adaptation of the regulation of each country to a European regulation and to the standards is a new problem that is necessary to resolve. The general objective is to speed up the procedures and to increase the effectiveness of the quality service that the judicial operators, specifically Registrars and Attorneys, render to the society, through the use of secure and confidential Internet communications. To achieve this general objective during this project there are going: to develop a Internet communication, secure, confidential, scalable and interoperable, between the Registrars and Attorneys into the methodology that is going to be implemented in Zaragoza (Spain) and between specific registrars of Spain, France and Portugal., To spread the results in European companies and judicial agents.
