The 5th QC/QCC on QCs

The 5th OCU International WS on Quantum Chemistry/Quantum Chemical Calculations on Quantum Computers: Quantum Algorithms 2018

 Seminar room (6th Floor), OCU Media Center, Osaka City University, Osaka 558-8585, Japan

Mar. 29 (Thu.) – 30 (Fri.), 2018

You are cordially invited to the 5th OCU International WS on Quantum Chemistry/Quantum Chemical Calculations on Quantum Computers: Quantum Algorithms 2018), Mar. 29-30, 2018 at OCU Media Center, Osaka City University.

The WS on QC/QCC-on-QCs: Quantum Algorithms has been held early spring every year since 2014 at OCU. The WS is not a scalable one, and only the limited number of scientists/researchers in this emerging field have been invited, giving their intensive lectures in the WS. The topics of each workshop will reflect emerging subjects and trends in the field of quantum algorithms and related fields from both the experimental and theoretical sides.
