Articulation of blockchain enabled e-voting systems: a systematic literature review
摘要
Security, transparency, and trust in the e-voting system is a worldwide problem, which lowers the percentage of voters interested in casting a vote. In Published literature, Numerous researchers put forth various solutions using blockchain in many application domains which showcase the immutable storage facility and the distributed mechanism that removes the need for the third party from the system. Blockchain’s immutability and decentralization make it a promising solution for e-voting. In the systematic review of the literature, we have identified the various components, variables, and properties of blockchain enabled electronic voting systems with insights into their functionality through various research questions applied to 55 selected Journal articles from well-known databases. Moreover, addressing identified gaps with actionable solutions and, highlighted implications of the study offer a forward-looking perspective for effective decision-making and innovation by the stakeholders. Furthermore, these are explained in detail to show the importance while designing/developing an e-voting system using blockchain and findings are mapped with the relevant literature for future research considerations.
