IV. PROPOSED SYSTEM
Our E-voting system is an android application
developed using Android studio. The front end used was
XML and java for the rear end MYSQL and Firebase
server.
The voter will login by giving the Voter id, Name
and Region if the given voter details are correct it'll move
to the voting page where the symbols and candidate name
are posted after selecting the candidates the voter should
enter mobile number for generating the OTP the voter
should submit the OTP if it's a legitimate OTP the vote
are going to be consider as valid .
For generating the OTP, we are using Firebase
server. Firebase is made on Google infrastructure
hence it's highly secured. Admin can login with the Fig.2 Flow Diagram for AES256
given user name and password.
V. MODULES IN PROPOSED SYSTEM
The admin will activate the voting page on the day
of election and adds the candidates for the election. The There are four modules in the proposed system.
Admin decrypt the results using AES256 and announce the The process of these three modules are discussed in the
results. below session.
A. LOGIN MODULE
The E-voting application consists of login for
voter and admin. The voter will login by giving Voter id,
Name and Region where admin will login by giving
username and password.
