Si comunica che per motivi personali il prof. Alessandro Curioni non potrà tenere il Colloquio della Classe di Scienze previsto, il 23 maggio 2018. Al suo posto sono stati invitati il prof. Ivano Tavernelli e il prof. Fabrizio Renzi. Di seguito i dettagli del Colloquio:

Colloqui della Classe di Scienze - Anno Accademico 2017/2018

Mercoledì 23 Maggio 2018 ore 15:00

Sala Azzurra Palazzo della Carovana

*Fabrizio Renzi (Innovation, Research, University and Technical Director at IBM - Italia)*

*Ivano Tavernelli (Theoretical Quantum Computing Technical Leader at IBM Research - Zurich)*

*Titolo: “**IBM Q: building the first universal quantum computers **for business and science**”*

*Abstract:*

"We are at an exciting inflection point in quantum computing. The disciplines of quantum physics and quantum information science are mature to the point of producing a number of practical algorithms, and today's quantum computers are capable of providing a concrete implementation with which we can explore the possibilities of these techniques.

IBM has opened up real and simulated quantum computers for everyone to learn how to program in this new paradigm.

One of the promising applications for quantum computing is in Materials and Chemistry. With a quantum computer scientists and engineers expect to untangle the complexity of molecular and chemical interactions leading to the discovery of new materials and medicines, and model the quantum states of molecules. We will discuss the status of the applications in this space and share some recent activity.

Other potential application areas are Business Optimization, where a quantum computer can provide improved solutions to complex optimization problems found in supply chains, logistics, modeling financial data, and risk analysis, or Machine Leaerning / AI, for instance to speed up the training of classifiers or even build new types of systems."

Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.
