The Institute for Quantum Computing, or IQC, located in Waterloo, Ontario, is an affiliate scientific research institute of the University of Waterloo with a multidisciplinary approach to the field of quantum information processing. IQC was founded in 2002.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What Great Philanthropy Can Do )〕 It is currently located in the Mike & Ophelia Lazaridis Quantum-Nano Centre and the Research Advancement Centre at the University of Waterloo. It is led by co-founder and physicist, Raymond Laflamme with researchers based in 6 departments across 3 faculties at the University of Waterloo. In addition to theoretical and experimental research on quantum computing, IQC also hosts academic conferences and workshops, short courses for undergraduate and high school students, and scientific outreach events including open houses and tours for the public. ==Mission== The IQC seeks to harness quantum mechanics to develop transformational technologies that will benefit society and become a new engine of economic development in the 21st century. It aims to develop and advance quantum information science and technology at the highest international level through the collaboration of computer scientists, engineers, mathematicians and physical scientists.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Strategic Direction )〕 The institute's three strategic objectives have been stated as: #To establish Waterloo as a world-class centre for research in quantum technologies and their applications. #To become a magnet for highly qualified personnel in the field of quantum information. #To establish IQC as the authoritative source of insight, analysis and commentary on quantum information. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Institute for Quantum Computing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
