Education

 

AtomThis online community is intended to help educate and inspire the next generation of QIS scientists and engineers.

Quantum Information Science (QIS) is at a historically important juncture.

The situation gives rise to a number of questions.

There is rapid funding now available in quantum computing, like the billion-dollar National Quantum Initiative and likely industry co-investment.

08 June 2022 | IEEE Spectrum

When pushed to explain why quantum computers can outspeed classical computers, stories about quantum computing often invoke a mysterious property called “entanglement.” Qubits, the reader is assured, can somehow be quantum mechanically entangled such that they depend on one another.

Summary of the 2019 IEEE Workshop on Benchmarking Quantum Computational Devices and Systems

2019 IEEE Workshop on Benchmarking Quantum Computational Devices and Systems7 November 2019 | San Mateo, California, USA

A summary and speaker presentations on the topics of quantum supremacy and quantum computer performance are now available from our half-day workshop on benchmarking quantum computational devices and systems. The workshop was held in conjunction with the 2019 IEEE International Conference on Rebooting Computing (ICRC) and was part of IEEE Rebooting Computing Week 2019.
