Nokia donates seed funding to Aalto University for launching an industrial PhD program on quantum technology
The first two PhD students will be hired to the program this year.
Quantum Software and Algorithms
Fostering large-scale quantum computing
Quantum computing deploys the phenomena of quantum mechanics to solve complex problems that even the most powerful supercomputers cannot execute. This interdisciplinary research area is focused to achieve large-scale quantum computing from the software perspective. The main goal is to support the execution of quantum algorithms with a practical advantage. This implies that at least the following research topics will be pursued:
- (quantum) machine learning
- compilation and optimization of circuits
- efficient error-correction and fault-tolerance
- simulation of quantum circuits
