5th Workshop on Quantum and Hybrid Quantum/Classical Computing Approaches

Building on the success of the last four years at ISC, the 5th Quantum and Hybrid Quantum-Classical Computing Approaches workshop continues to explore the forefront of quantum computing and its integration with classical systems. In particular, the workshop serves as a platform to showcase advancements in hybrid quantum-computing integration, software, middleware and applications that are relevant to the ISC community. It offers a well-rounded program of contributed talks, invited speakers, and a welcoming environment where attendees can engage and exchange ideas on the current and future landscape of hybrid quantum computing.

In true spirit of ISC26 slogan, Connecting the Dots, in this workshop we aim at connecting the very best of HPC practices, lessons learned and future directions, with the integration of quantum computers and their software stacks, as well as other transformational technologies (e.g AI). We will provide the audience with insights to novel hybrid quantum-classical applications integrating NISQ devices with classical frameworks to solve real-world challenges, as well as diversified talks on different quantum architectures, benchmarking strategies, advances in error correction and mitigation methods, inviting leaders in different sectors of quantum hardware and software design.
