It requires a lot of costs and manpower to manage an election. The electronic voting scheme can make the election system economic and trustful. The widespread use of smart phones causes mobile voting to be a major issue. The smart phone can be used as a mobile voting platform since it can carry out many services in addition to basic telephone service. To make mobile voting practical and trustful, we analyzed two subjects of study. Firstly, the way to make a biometric based mobile ID, which has legal binding forces. In mobile voting, user identification is accomplished on line since the voter should be able to vote wherever they go. The digital ID conducts a similar role to the need for a resident card. The user's identity is bound to the resident card legally. To bind the user's identity to the smart phone, we use USIM. Biometric recognition is also needed to authenticate the user, since the user cannot prove him or her on line face-to-face. The proposed mobile ID can be reissued by means of introducing a random secret value. Secondly, the mobile voting scheme is proposed where candidates can accept election results without doubt. The goal of an election is to select a leader among two or more candidates. Existing electronic voting schemes mainly focus on the study of ballot verification accomplished by voters. These approaches are not safe against collusion attacks where candidates and the election administration center are able to collude to fabricate election results. Therefore, a new type of voting and counting method is needed where candidates can directly take part in voting and counting stages. The biometric based multi-signature scheme is used to make the undeniable multi-signed ballot. The ballot cannot be verified without the help of all candidates. If candidates accept election results without a doubt, the fairness of the election is satisfied.

유비쿼터스 환경이 도래함에 따라 모바일 단말을 이용한 무선 인터넷의 이용이 증가하고 있다. 그 결과 사용자가 관리해야 하는 Digital Identity 정보가 기하 급수적으로 증가하고 있다. 또한 사용자가 가입 시 SP(Service provider)에게 등록한 개인정보는 기초적인 신상정보부터 금융정보에 이르기까지 다양한 정보들을 포함하고 있다. 따라서 개인 정보를 사용자 스스로가 통제가 가능하며 전자ID지갑에 단순한 인증정보뿐만 아니라 금융, 결제 등 다양한 정보를 포함한 Ticket을 전자ID지갑에서 간단하게 선택해 자신의 정보를 안전하게 관리할 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위하여 사용자 스스로가 개인정보의 활용을 통제할 수 있는 모바일 환경에서의 사용자 중심의 Digital Identity 운용 메커니즘을 제안한다.
