dc.description.abstract	There are many vocal opponents to the introduction of e-voting systems for use in democratic elections and referendum. Criticism stems from the belief that the system cannot be produced to sufficient levels of dependability to guarantee accurate results, and as a consequence require a voter verifiable paper trail to allow the e-voting results to be verified. This paper examines what it means for software to be dependable and the feasibility of software engineering techniques to provide a solution to this problem.	en
