▶Title: What can we learn from applications for the development of quantum computing?
▶Speaker: Jeanette Lorenz ( Fraunhofer IKS )
▶Abstract: Although the development of quantum computing hardware and software is progressing fast with many papers appearing on arXiv daily, the advantage of using quantum computing for real-life (industry and academic) applications remains unclear.
Present quantum computers remain to be limited in the number of qubits, the connectivity and are affected by noise.
While the execution of fault-tolerant quantum algorithms with a clear advantage for industrial applications is therefore currently not possible, we can still use the present NISQ-devices to understand the prospective potential of quantum computing hardware, software and algorithms for (academic and industrial) applications. Furthermore, this also tells us in which direction further developments are required.
This talk reflects on importance of application-centric benchmarks which exactly the intend to investigate this interplay of hardware and software from the perspective of applications via concrete examples.
