Lectured by Paul Nation (IBM)
Like to experience how the real quantum computer works?
Want to learn how to write quantum programs for quantum machines?
Join us in this in-depth tutorial session.
As widely known by now, IBM Qiskit is "an open-source quantum computing framework for leveraging today's quantum processors in research, education, and business."[1] In short, you can have a hand-on experience, remotely, with real quantum computers, or do some research experiments on the machines.
Paul Nation, a member of the Qiskit core development team, will guide you through all the steps from installing the Qiskit package to mastering the technical programming in Qiskit. To help those who are less experienced in (classical) computing environment, two assistants, Ha-Eum Kim and Hoang-Anh Le, are ready at your service.
Just bring your own computer and enjoy the experience!
