Voting is one of the fundamental pillars of modern democracy. Continuous efforts have been made to strengthen the processes and methods involved to achieve verifiable, transparent voting systems. In recent years, blockchain has been increasingly used to address multi-dimensional challenges across widespread application domains including healthcare, finance and e-voting. However, achieving an efficient solution via use of blockchain requires consideration of a range of factors such as block generation rate, transaction speed, and block size which have a profound role in determining the overall performance of the solution. Current research into this aspect of blockchain is focused on Bitcoin with the objective to achieve comparable performance as of existing online payment systems such as VISA. However, there exists a gap in literature with respect to investigating performance constraints for wider application domains. In this paper, we present our efforts to address this gap by presenting a detailed study into performance and scalability constraints for an e-voting system. Specifically, we conducted rigorous experimentation with permissioned and permissionless blockchain settings across different scenarios with respect to voting population, block size, block generation rate and transaction speed. The experiments highlighted interesting observations with respect to the impact of these parameters on the overall efficiency and scalability of the e-voting model including trade-offs between different parameters as well as security and performance.

The tendencies of introduction of e-government in public administration bodies of the world are analyzed on the basis of the analysis of publications in the international scientific journals “International Journal of Electronic Government Research” and “International Journal of Public Administration in the Digital Age”. The author gives an overview of the topics of the first magazine, which includes theoretical and philosophical discussions of e-government issues, technological and software technologies, e-government implementation policy and dissemination of positive experience, e-government planning and management. And also - the topics of the second magazine, which include the introduction of information technology for the efficiency of urban and regional governance in the examples of developed and developing countries, as well as comparing the success of these implementations in private organizations with public authorities. During the analysis the author noted that when analyzing the experience of different countries of the world, it is necessary to pay attention to the specifics of these countries, their development priorities and resources.The author emphasized that for Ukraine in the current economic conditions, the implementation of e-government instruments in state bodies of public administration is especially important, because it strengthens the direction of irreversibility in the way of declared reforms by our state.The trends of implementation of e-government in the forthcoming years concerning open data, e-procurement, e-services, electronic interaction, electronic identification have been proved. It also recommends that they be taken into account in conjunction with existing priorities for the development of public administration in Ukraine when considering modernization issues.The author describes the actuality of using the following e-governance technologies: cloud computing technologies, blockchain in government information networks, and the Internet of Things architecture. Emphasis is placed on the need for mandatory cyber security training for public servants, as well as involving citizens in engaging with the state through social networks in the provision of administrative services.On the basis of the analysis the author identifies critical technologies of e-government for modernization of administrative processes in public administration bodies of Dnipropetrovsk region.

La confianza es un elemento fundamental del mundo contemporáneo, especialmente en las diferentes transacciones que realizan las empresas. El incremento del fraude, así como la falsificación de productos y servicios, han generado que las compañías deban gastar dinero y esfuerzos en reprocesos y medidas de seguridad. Las transacciones transparentes se han convertido un reto que muchos buscan lograr. Una de las grandes propuestas de transacciones confiables es la tecnología blockchain. Esta puede ofrecernos, transparencia en las transacciones y confianza entre las organizaciones, aun si no se conocen entre ellas previamente. En nuestro artículo desarrollaremos la revisión de la literatura de las capacidades de transparencia y confianza que nos presenta la tecnología blockchain en la cadena de suministro.
