Farnel—this word means basket in Portuguese—is a paper based voting protocol conceived by Ricardo Felipe Custódio in 2001. His master student Augusto Jun Devegili was responsible for the name and for the first electronic version of the protocol. Roberto Araujo takes Farnel and has proposed severals improvements on it. He also did his master thesis at Computer Security Laboratory (LabSEC - http://www.labsec.ufsc.br) managed by prof. Custódio. == Short description == The Farnel paper-based voting scheme is based on signatures and employs two ballot boxes. One of the ballot boxes (the first one) is able to receive ballots, shuffle its contents, and output ballots; this ballot box is initialized before the election with votes signed by a voting authority. The other ballot box (the second one) begins the election empty. The voting phase is described as following: 1. The voter receives a blank ballot signed by the voting authority, marks her option, and casts it into the first ballot box; 2. The ballot box shuffles its ballots and returns a random ballot to the voter; 3. To finish the process, the voter signs the ballot received and casts it into the second ballot box. In the tally phase, the ballots from the first ballot box are signed by the authority and cast into the second ballot box. To obtain the voting results, all ballots of this ballot box are counted and the ballots cast before the voting are discounted. See “A Verifiable Voting Protocol based on Farnel” and “An electronic scheme for the Farnel paper-based voting protocol” for more details about the scheme.
