Abstract :
Due to the importance of choosing a representative, electoral processes have been necessaries, which have evolved with modern society, so the use of information technologies is a useful tool for such evolution. Considering that, this article presents the design and implementation of an Integrated Electronic Voting System (IEVS). The system, which was proved for choosing the position of student advisor at School of Mechanical and Electric Engineering (ESIME), Culhuacan Campus, meets needed requirements for this kind of systems, in addition to speed up the execution time of traditional process and ensure reliable results. All of this is achieved by using different cryptographic primitives such as: encryption, decryption, signature and verification and a hash function, by getting in this way a reliable Electronic Voting System.
