REVOTE is devoted to gather researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry in order to get a better understanding of the strengths and the weaknesses of existing techniques and thus lay the foundations for engineering, designing, implementing, as well as deploying a new generation of more secure and robust technologies for polling stations. REVOTE'11 will address the following main issues:

The role of business process (re)engineering techniques for e-voting system development.
Usability requirements for complexity (huge, complex ballots sheets) and for verifiability mechanisms and tradeoffs between different other requirements.
New requirements like unconditional election secrecy, complaints management, transparency.
In addition REVOTE`11 will address the following issues:

Empirical analysis concerning the impact of poorly specified requirements on current e-voting technology.
The role of formal methods in specification and verification of system properties, with particular interest in security, verifiability and anonymity.
Evaluation of systems according to security and usability requirements.
Requirements maintenance, domain engineering and (software) product lines.
Usability requirements for verifiability mechanisms and tradeoffs between different other requirements.
Legal requirements, deducing technical requirements from legal ones.
Analysis of voting requirements documents and requirements capture processes, including those that predate e-voting.
Procedural Security modeling and Analysis.
New protocol ideas to support specific requirements (such as verifiability).
Realistic threat models.
