Title: Quantum Computing 101: Challenges and Opportunities
Abstract: Rigorous efforts from industry and academia to pave the way for practical quantum computers at scale have rendered proof-of-concept demonstrations featuring hundreds of qbits. However, significantly larger quantum systems are required to unlock the quantum advantage over classical computers. The current state of quantum computing is often compared to classical computing in the 1950s, when the fundamental building blocks existed but the full-fledged system stack did not. Another camp argues that quantum technology is much closer to classical hardware of the late 1930s, when it was unknown what type of building blocks would prevail or how they would be integrated to construct useful machines. In either case, we may regard the development of classical computers decades ago as a roadmap for the development of quantum computers today, although quantum computers are inherently different and pose greater challenges. In this talk I will cover basics of quantum computing from theory to practice.
