SUMMARY:Quantum Autumn School 2024 (Hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:Registrations are closed for this event. \n\n\n\n\n\nENCCS joins forces again this year with NordIQuEst\, to deliver a three-day quantum autumn school in early December 2024! The quantum autumn school will be held in Stockholm in hybrid form.  \n\n\n\nAbout the Quantum Autumn School\n\n\n\nExperts from other organisations and industry will showcase the possibilities offered by quantum computing during the school. The school will cover more advanced topics and tutorials compared to QAS23\, which serves as a good starting point for people interested in participating.  \n\n\n\nThe QAS24 will include: \n\n\n\n\nOverview of the main state-of-the-art QC hardware approaches. \n\n\n\nOverview and update on recent developments in QC software stacks.\n\n\n\nIntegration of QC with classical computing: hybrid classical/quantum algorithms and HPC+QC systems. \n\n\n\nQC programming in high-level languages for scientific and industrial use cases.\n\n\n\n\nRecent developments in quantum technologies are bringing the world closer to a technological revolution. The advent of quantum computers able to provide considerable acceleration to important computational tasks. In the coming years\, quantum-accelerated high-performance computing is expected to have a significant impact on many areas of research that can utilise computational modelling.  \n\n\n\nFormat\n\n\n\nThe Quantum Autumn School combines lectures with afternoon hands-on sessions. Participants will learn to use high-level QC programming languages and run quantum programs on Helmi.  \n\n\n\nFurthermore\, on-site participants will be treated to social and networking events. A PechaKucha evening where participants can present their research projects in an informal and entertaining format. Online participants will be able to follow a live broadcast of both seminars and hands-on sessions. Additionally\, they will be able to participate actively in the school through live Q&A and chat.  \n\n\n\nFor the hands-on training sessions\, a basic experience of Quantum computing is desirable. Last year Quantum Autumn School offered a variety of materials and tutorials available for free. Therefore\, we urge participants of the QAS24 to have a look and familiarise themselves with those materials as they offer a basis for the training sessions: \n\n\n\nPrerequisites\n\n\n\nIf you do not have prior experience with quantum computing\, we recommend that you attend the Introduction to Quantum Computing online workshop on November 28\, which is provided in collaboration with IQM Quantum Computers. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, we recommend that you browse the training material from QAS23: \n\n\n\nhttps://enccs.se/news/2023/11/quantum-autumn-school-material-and-recording/ \n\n\n\nFinally\, for more in-depth preparation we recommend the following reading material: \n\n\n\nThomas Wong\, “Introduction to Classical and Quantum Computing”\, chapters 1\, 2\, 4\, and 6\, see  https://www.thomaswong.net/ . \n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\nMonday 2 Dec 2024\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	TimeTopic\n\n\n\n\n	10:00-11:00 Arrival and registration\n\n\n	11:00-11:15 Welcome and introduction to NordIQuEst\, ENCCS and SQS \n\n\n	11:15-12:00 HPC/QC integration and the NordIQuEst application library \n\n\n	12:00-13:00Lunch\n\n\n	13:00-14:00 Introduction to the Helmi quantum computer \n\n\n	14:00-17:00Intro to variational quantum algorithms: QAOA theory and hands-on\n\n\n	17:30-18:30 Study visit to quantum optics labs at Albanova University Center\n\n\n	18:30-21:00 Self-organised dinner in Stockholm \n\n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday 3 Dec 2024\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Time  Topic\n\n\n\n\n	09:00-12:00 Error correction – theory and hands-on \n\n\n	12:00-13:00 Lunch\n\n\n	13:00-14:00 Quantum computing hardware \n\n\n	14:00-15:00 Quantum Monte Carlo and quantum finance \n\n\n	15:00-16:30 QMC and quantum finance tutorial\n\n\n	16:30-17:00 Overview of the Quantum Sweden Innovation Platform – QSIP \n\n\n	17:00-17:30 Post-quantum cryptography \n\n\n	18:00-21:00 QAS dinner\, drinks and Pecha Kucha social event\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday 4 Dec 2024\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Time  Topic\n\n\n\n\n	09:00-10:00Solving Flight Scheduling Optimization using QAOA – Theory\n\n\n	10:00-11:00 Solving Flight Scheduling Optimization using QAOA – Hands-on\n\n\n	11:00-12:00 Quantum walk – seminar and demo\n\n\n	12:00-13:00 Lunch\n\n\n	13:00-14:00 Quantum chemistry and materials science seminar\n\n\n	14:00-15:00 Quantum chemistry and materials science hands-on\n\n\n	15:00-15:30 Quantum extreme learning machine: presentation and case study\n\n\n	15:30-16:15 Overview of the Tergite framework \n\n\n	16:15-16:45Quantum Computing Activities of NCC Iceland\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\nAlberto Lanzanova (CSC)\n\n\n\nAnastasiia Andriievska (ENCCS/RISE)\n\n\n\nBjörn Löfdahl (SEB)\n\n\n\nDelphine Martres (UiO)\n\n\n\nEleftherios Moschandreou (Chalmers Next Labs)\n\n\n\nErik Källman (RISE)\n\n\n\nFranz Fuchs (Sintef)\n\n\n\nHannu Reittu (VTT)\n\n\n\nHemanadhan Myneni (University of Iceland)\n\n\n\nJerome Lenssen (VTT)\n\n\n\nJohan Felix (Chalmers)\n\n\n\nKarim Elgammal (Industry expert)\n\n\n\nMartin Ahindura (Chalmers Next Labs)\n\n\n\nMichael Popoff (RISE)\n\n\n\nModupe Faludon (CSC)\n\n\n\nMorris Riedel (University of Iceland)\n\n\n\nPeter Sutton (Jeppesen)\n\n\n\nPontus Vikstål (Chalmers Next Labs)\n\n\n\nRuben Pariente Bassa (Sintef)\n\n\n\nSven Karlsson (DTU)\n\n\n\nThor Wikfeldt (ENCCS/RISE)\n\n\n\nVictorio Úbeda Sosa (Handelsbanken)\n\n\n\nWilhelm Ågren (Handelsbanken)\n\n\n\nXinyi Wang (Simula)\n\n\n\nZuhair Khan (VTT)\n\n\n\n\nAbout the organisers\n\n\n\nENCCS (NCC-Sweden)\, NCC-Finland\, NCC-Denmark and NCC-Iceland are Nordic EuroCC National Competence Centres which give hands-on support and training on supercomputing\, as well as consulting regarding funding opportunities and access calls. \n\n\n\nNordΙQuEst is the Nordic-Estonian Quantum Computing e-Infrastructure Quest.
