What is quantum computing anyway?
címmel előadást tart
Quantum computing is an exciting field that is gaining more and more attention, as small (and noisy) quantum devices become increasingly available for mostly educational and academic purposes. Not only scientists, engineers or technological- and industry leaders should have a basic understanding of the concepts behind quantum computing, but everybody should have at least a vague idea of the theoretical concepts and potential future applications of quantum computing. This talk focuses mainly on the fundamental principles behind this fascinating technological development. The basic concepts are introduced in an approachable way, and no prior knowledge of mathematics, physics or computer science is expected. The talk is an attempt to motivate the ideas of quantum computing and should encourage everybody to ask questions and engage in a discussion while the concepts are being introduced.

A consortium of European partners led by the University of Luxembourg has been selected by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking to design and implement the first pan-European High-Performance Computing (HPC) pilot Master’s programme. The University of Pannonia is a member of the consortium that will offer courses from autumn 2022 to provide students with outstanding career perspectives in the rapidly expanding field of HPC, High-Performance Data Analytics (HPDA), or Artificial Intelligence.The consortium of European universities, research/supercomputing centres, and industrial partners will develop a higher education programme with the main objectives to:
- Educate students in areas such as the design, deployment, operation, and/or the use of current and future generation HPC and HPC-related technologies in Europe;
- Educate experts skilled in driving HPC adoption and knowledge transfer in industry and academia in different strategic domains, thereby linking HPC activities in industry and academia.
The availability of HPC experts, such as HPC administrators and architects, HPC proficient data scientists, HPC application developers, and expert users, is a key factor that drives digital transformation in Europe and requires the training of highly skilled and talented graduate students.
While many university curricula include basic computer science and programming languages, education programmes today must be adapted to a rapidly developing HPC technology ecosystem. The curriculum of the HPC pilot Master’s programme will be designed in a modular structure to facilitate full or partial integration of the modules into new or existing Master’s programmes.
A central goal of the initiative is to strengthen mobility between European universities, research centres, and industry. The new HPC-centred Master’s programme will reach out to scientific and industrial target groups and serve key actors in the private and public sectors.
The role of the University of Pannonia in the consortium is to contribute to the design of a new EU HPC MSc curriculum, to participate in the development of teaching materials, as well as in student and teacher mobility programmes. We look forward to improving the quality of our MSc programmes and strengthening our international cooperations that will allow us to equip our students with in-depth knowledge of HPC technologies.
Background
The consortium led by the University of Luxembourg consists of universities, research/supercomputing centres, industrial and SME partners, and additional supporting partners. Eight universities will initially be awarding degrees (University of Luxembourg, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Politecnico di Milano, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Sorbonne Université, Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski, Università della Svizzera Italiana, Kungliga Tekniska Hoegskolan).
The consortium will develop and implement one or more pilots of a European Master of Science programme for HPC. This action is part of the EuroHPC JU’s broader strategy to support the development of key HPC skills, education, and training for European science and industry.
