Title: Systems Research in Quantum Computing
Speaker: Frank Mueller
Abstract: Quantum computing has become reality with the deployment of different device technologies accessible through the cloud. However, current hardware technologies pose a number of problems, which require research advances in the systems are of quantum. This talk provides an overview of contemporary problems, sample solutions and open research challenges in this filed. It also highlights benefits of interdisciplinary collaborations and discusses funding opportunities.
