We cordially invite you to submit a paper presenting the results of original research in the area of quantum computing at the Quantum Computing Thematic Track to be held in conjunction with the International Conference on Computational Science, June 3 - 5, 2020, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Introduction
Quantum computing is a new paradigm that exploits fundamental principles of quantum mechanics to solve problems in various fields of science that are beyond possibilities of classical computing infrastructures. Despite increasing activity in both theoretical research and hardware implementations, reaching the state of useful quantum supremacy is still an open question. This workshop aims to provide a forum for computational scientists, software developers, computer scientists, physicists and quantum hardware providers to understand and discuss research on current problems in quantum informatics.
Topics
Specific topics include (but are not limited to):
- New quantum computing algorithms;
- New hybrid quantum-classical solutions;
- Application of quantum computing to current problems in computational science;
- Quantum algorithms in machine learning and big data;
- Integration of quantum computation with supercomputing infrastructure;
- Quantum computing hardware;
- Quantum error correction;
- Advanced methods for quantum software engineering;
- Novel numerical methods supporting quantum information theory;
- Environments and frameworks for quantum computing;
- Quantum simulators;
- Cloud-based support for quantum computing;
