QC Compact: Quantum Computing Basics and Applications

​​​How does quantum computing (QC) work, what principles is its programming based on and why does the so-called “quantum advantage” promise disruptive change in almost all industries? In a one-day workshop, experts from Fraunhofer IAO will introduce QC and present the innovation network, its opportunities and challenges, and potential applications.​​ 

​​​Quantum computing promises great potential for companies in almost all sectors thanks to its speed and efficiency advantages. The QC compact seminar provides participants with a comprehensive overview of the current innovation network in the field of quantum computing.  

​​After an overview of the two quantum technologies, quantum computing and quantum sensing, we will discuss the differences between classical computers and quantum computers and the associated challenges and opportunities, in particular types of problems that can potentially be solved with QC. We then demonstrate the quantum principles using qubits by explaining e.g. bloch sphere and quantum states such as superposition and their measurement. Based on this, different quantum algorithms and exemplary use cases will be presented.   

​​Optional: In the afternoon, we invite participants to get to know the state of the art of today's system
