Just a reminder:
- Xiaodi
(1) QIP 2020 Student Travel Grants
Thanks to the generous support of local organizers/sponsors and the US National Science Foundation, there will be a substantial amount of travel supports for (both US-based and non-US-based) students to attend QIP 2020 at Shenzhen, China (http://www.szpclab.com/qip2020) .
Anyone who is interested should submit the application according to the instruction (http://www.szpclab.com/qip2020#/studentSupport) by AoE November 4th, 2019.
(2) PLanQC 2020: Programming Languages and Quantum Computing
Call for SubmissionsWe invite members of the programming languages (PL) and quantum computing (QC) communities to submit talk proposals for the First International Workshop on Programming Languages for Quantum Computing (PLanQC 2020), co-located with POPL 2020 in New Orleans in January, 2020.PLanQC aims to bring together researchers from the fields of programming languages and quantum information, exposing the programming languages community to the unique challenges of programming quantum computers. It will promote the development of tools to assist in the process of programming quantum computers, as they exist today and as they are likely to exist in the near to distant future.Submissions to PLanQC should take the form of 2-4 page abstracts, with links to larger preprints when appropriate (work-in-progress is welcome). We hope to make PLanQC maximally accessible to the programming languages community. Thus, abstracts should cover cutting edge ideas and results, but not be opaque to new, potential entrants to QC coming from PL. Abstracts will be reviewed for quality and relevance to the workshop, and accepted authors will be invited to give talks or poster presentations. We will not be publishing formal proceedings, but the extended abstracts, along with links (where available) to full papers will be posted to the workshop’s website.Invited speakers:Jennifer Paykin, Galois Inc — Quantum Computing for PL ResearchersPeter Selinger, Dalhousie University — Quantum Programming LanguagesFred Chong, University of Chicago — Quantum CompilationBettina Heim, Microsoft Research — The Q# LanguageWorkshop topics include (but are not limited to): • High-level quantum programming languages • Verification tools for quantum programs • Novel quantum programming abstractions • Quantum circuit optimizations • Error handling, mitigation, and correction • Instruction sets for quantum hardware • Other techniques from traditional programming languages (e.g., types, compilation/optimization, foreign function interfaces) applied to the domain of quantum computation.Important dates (anywhere on earth):------------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract submission deadline: Tue 28 Oct 2019Notification: Mon 21 Nov 2019Workshop: Sun 19 Jan 2020------------------------------------------------------------------------Website:https://popl20.sigplan.org/home/planqc-2020Submission:https://plaqc2020.hotcrp.com/Programme Committee:Matt Amy University of WaterlooRoss Duncan Cambridge Quantum Computing, University of StrathclydeChris Granade Microsoft ResearchBettina Heim Microsoft ResearchYipeng Huang Princeton UniversityAleks Kissinger Radboud UniversityJennifer Paykin Galois IncRobert Rand (Chair) University of MarylandNeil J.
