Harnessing the Quantum World
Speaker(s): Raymond Laflamme - University of Waterloo/IQC
Abstract: Are you ready for this upgrade? The very foundation of computer science is changing. As Moore's Law draws to a close, rules of quantum physics are taking over. Learn how leading researchers are using counterintuitive effects, such as superposition, in their quest to build ultra-powerful quantum computers. You'll see how quantum particles behave, are controlled and, ultimately, used to calculate.
