Event Summary
Quantum computing promises transformational capabilities for developing new materials and pharmaceuticals, finding better answers to the most complex optimization problems in logistics and finance, enabling RSA key decryption, accelerating search algorithms for very large data, and more. However, quantum computers are currently still small, error-prone, and fragile. So, why should you learn about quantum computing, algorithms, and programming now? Because viable, advantageous quantum computing systems are imminent—potentially just a few years away—and the evaluation and learning curve should be started now if you have problems with new ideas for which classical computing has constraints and you want a competitive advantage. Also, quantum computing-inspired algorithms are already starting to have an impact on how we use classical computers!
So, join us for an overview of:
- How quantum computers work
- How they are built and what constraints we must overcome
- How they are programmed, and how this compares to programming classical computers including powerful HPC systems
- Examples of algorithms and problems for which QC will greatly accelerate new, better solutions
- Types of problems for which your company or organization may need quantum computing in the years ahead to achieve discovery, innovation, and competitive advantage
- Real hands-on programming on a working quantum computing system!
