suppol

SupPol is a programming language designed for creating and managing secure polling systems. Its primary focus is on ensuring the integrity and privacy of votes cast during elections or surveys. The language provides a set of built-in functions and data structures that facilitate the secure transmission, storage, and tabulation of poll results.

Key features of SupPol include its cryptographic primitives that allow for end-to-end encryption of ballots, preventing unauthorized access to individual votes. It also incorporates mechanisms for voter authentication, ensuring that only eligible participants can cast a ballot. The language's design emphasizes auditability, allowing for independent verification of the election process and its outcomes. SupPol's syntax is designed to be relatively straightforward, aiming to make it accessible to developers who may not have extensive backgrounds in cryptography.

The SupPol compiler translates source code into executable programs that can be deployed on various platforms. This enables the creation of diverse polling applications, ranging from small-scale internal surveys to large-scale governmental elections. Development of SupPol is ongoing, with a community of researchers and developers contributing to its evolution and the addition of new security features. Its intended use cases are primarily in environments where trust and verifiability are paramount.
