Technical Description, Focus, and Scope

Quantum Computing technologies are growing at exceptional rates thanks to the advancements in both quantum hardware and quantum computing approaches and methodologies, thus becoming promising and viable for exploitation in the context of distributed systems, for addressing infrastructure, management, networking, and applicative needs.

It is time for the research community to study intersections and bridges between these two fields, so as to cultivate common grounds and develop innovations.

For this purpose, the workshop aims to bring together scientific and industrial communities to discuss, propose, define, and evaluate innovative algorithms, approaches, and models for leveraging Quantum Computing in Distributed systems. Considering the novelty of the context, the workshop also aims to define a collaborative research agenda to highlight future research directions.

This workshop aims to foster the exchange of new ideas, results, and developments among researchers and practitioners, addressing existing challenges and identifying emerging ones.

Possible Topics Include (but are not limited to):

Submission and Review Process

Authors are invited to submit papers describing original or ongoing research, state-of-the-art reviews, and overviews of research projects. Submissions must be in PDF format, written in English, and formatted according to the IEEE camera-ready standard format (double column, 10pt font size). Papers should be between 4 and 6 pages in length.

Submit your paper via the main conference site at https://edas.info/N33777.
