Abstract
The proliferation of the Internet and Web have radically changed
the way business is done. Electronic payment systems, electronic
retailing, electronic collaboration, Web-based decision support,
electronic banking, are just a few of the applications. These
have led to ever more sensitive and strategic data being stored
on Web sites and transmitted over the Internet. The ubiquity
of the Internet is also promising radically different ways of
doing transactions such as digital cash and electronic checks.
This tutorial is intended to present a good overview and several
technical details involved in e-commerce and digital cash.
