Abstract This paper gives a brief introduction to a novel voting system, the Network-based Voting System
(NVS). The system design is based on the careful analysis and evaluation of a traditional voting system, the
computer controlled and managed voting system. The new system integrates technologies such as image
processing, networking and databases to enhance three aspects of system performance: data collection, data
transfer, and data management. Experiments have proved that the performance of the network-based voting
system is superior to the CCMVS.
