Online introductory weekly lectures (seven) on quantum computing from 6 Nov 2020
by Mohan Hr 05 Nov '20

05 Nov '20

Dear all Pl see the announcement on a series of weekly lectures on Quantum Computing. The talks will focus on the practical aspects of quantum computing and are organised by CERN openlab and the CERN Quantum Technology Initiative. Pl utilise the opportunity and get benefited. With regards -- hrmohan Announcement on the lecture series ============================== Online introductory lectures on quantum computing from 6 November No previous knowledge of quantum physics is required to follow these open, free lectures on quantum computing A series of weekly lectures on the basics of quantum computing will be broadcast via webcast starting 6 November 2020 at 10.30 a.m. New lectures will be broadcast each Friday of the next seven weeks. The talks will focus on the practical aspects of quantum computing and are organised by CERN openlab and the CERN Quantum Technology Initiative. They will be given by Elias Fernandez-Combarro Alvarez, an associate professor in the Computer Science Department at the University of Oviedo in Spain since 2009 and a cooperation associate at CERN since earlier this year. Quantum computing is one the most promising new trends in information processing. This course introduces basic concepts of the quantum circuit model (qubits, gates and measures) and important quantum algorithms and protocols, including those that can be implemented with a few qubits (BB84, quantum teleportation, superdense coding, etc.), as well as those that require multi-qubit systems (Deutsch-Jozsa, Grover, Shor, etc.). Some of the most recent applications of quantum computing in the fields of optimisation and simulation will be addressed (with special emphasis on the use of quantum annealing, the quantum approximate optimisation algorithm and the variational quantum eigensolver) along with quantum machine learning (for instance, through the use of quantum support vector machines and quantum variational classifiers). Examples of how these techniques can be used in chemistry simulations and high-energy physics problems will also be provided. Beyond the practical aspects of quantum computing, the course will cover the implementation of algorithms in quantum simulators and actual quantum computers (such as the ones available through the IBM Quantum Experience and D-Wave Leap). No previous knowledge of quantum physics is required and only a good command of basic linear algebra is necessary. Some familiarity with the Python programming language would be helpful, but is also not required. Individual links to each lecture are provided below.

SALIS 2020: International Virtual Conference on Challenges and Opportunities to Libraries and LIS Professionals in the Changing Global Scenario Date: 28-30 December 2020 Organized by: SALIS ( Society for the Advancement of Library and Information Science in Collaboration with: Karunya Institute of Technology and Sciences, Coimbatore B.S.AbdurRahman Crescent Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai National Engineering College, Kovilpatti Coimbatore Institute of Technology, Coimbatore K.S.Rangasamy College of Technology, Tiruchengode Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Madurai Alagappa University, Karaikudi Indian Institute of Management Tiruchirappalli Bharathiar University, Coimbatore Objective of the Conference: Libraries are undergoing tremendous changes in terms of collection, services, technology, distribution and dissemination due to ICT revolution, availability of digital resources, tech-savvy Google generation users, diminishing library budget, dominance of Google and global access to open sources and technologies. Library and Information Services are changing at par with technology so, there is need for Libraries and LIS professionals to update themselves with recent trends in the field. In view of technology and market driven library services, the traditional library services are replaced with artificial intelligence, machine-learning software, and robotics enabled applications.
