Munich Quantum Software Forum 2024: Talk by Andre Carvalho (Q-CTRL)

Title:
Make Quantum Computing Useful with Performance-Enhancing Infrastructure Software

Abstract:
Excitement about the promise of quantum computers is tempered by the reality that the hardware remains exceptionally fragile and error-prone, forming a bottleneck in the development of novel applications. In this talk, we show how quantum control delivered by software could accelerate the adoption of quantum technologies by improving the performance of commercial quantum computers. We will illustrate how our automated performance management software solution improves the execution of a suite of algorithms, including hybrid algorithms with direct application to high-value logistic optimization problems.
