Course schedule
1 Understanding the challenges of quantum computing
- Why not probably buy a quantum computer... you'll be using one within the next 5 years.
- Some basics of quantum physics: the concepts of superposition and entanglement.
- From traditional computing to quantum computing: from bits to qubits.
- The concept of quantum supremacy, the tipping point between traditional and quantum computing.
- States are investing massively: China, the United States, Russia, Canada, France, the United Kingdom, the Gulf States...
- From the Electronic Numerical Integrator Analyser and Computer (ENIAC) to the first quantum computers.
- The challenges of creating a quantum computer: why is it so complex?
- Potential market figures: compilation of major analyst studies.
- Key components of a quantum computer: qubits, processor, quantum gates, error correction, etc.
- The architecture of a quantum computer, current constraints on energy consumption and cost.
- Quantum computing "as a Service", in the cloud, and accessible through a platform.
- High-Performance Computing (HPC), quantum simulator, neuromorphic chips.
- Complementarity and preparation for the development of quantum computing.
- Quantum algorithms: how do they differ from traditional algorithms?
2 First applications by sector
- Overview of the first use cases by sector.
- Finance, transport, communications, healthcare, energy... take a look at the companies investing in quantum computing.
- Financial system security, how RSA and AES algorithms could become obsolete, just like blockchain...
- Why and how can we develop new quantum encryption systems?
- Special case: the defense industry - how quantum computing and telecommunications represent global geostrategic issues.
- The cost of a first prototype: how to calculate it and assess the return on investment?
- Quantum computing for artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning and big data.
- How to position the various complementary technologies: HPC, supercomputers, cloud computing.
- Presentation of a maturity model to position your company.
- How to prepare a proof of concept, and identify a problem to be solved in your organization.
- Initial feedback from companies that have invested in quantum computing. What problems need to be solved?
3 Overview of market players: hardware and software trends
- Hardware (Google, IBM, Microsoft, Alibaba, Amazon, Intel, Fujitsu, Rigetti, D-Wave, Quantum Computing Inc., etc.).
- The latest technologies: Microsoft Majorana, D:Wave Advantage, Nvidia, Google Willow, IBM Universal Quantum, Baidu...
- France's leading quantum start-ups: Quandela, Pasqal, Alice & Bob...
- Techniques and methods for developing quantum algorithms using languages such as Microsoft's Q# or IBM's Qiskit.
- Programming differences with traditional languages.
- Simulation solutions and software platforms.
- An overview of the universities we work with.
- An overview of start-ups in the sector.
- Public and private investment funds specializing in quantum computing.
- What can we learn from early failures in the field?
- Likely trends for the coming years: hardware, software and services.
- Quantum computing for modelling: complex modelling tackles intractable problems.
- The challenges that quantum computing can solve: climate change, transport, augmented intelligence.
- Teleportation, superposition: these principles call into question certain human certainties?
4 Draw up a roadmap: monitoring, training, prototypes
- How to define your roadmap: this is a marathon, not a sprint.
- Set up a technological and strategic watch: deduce an industrial strategy.
- First training initiatives.
- Who to train and who to recruit in the coming years.
- Define PoBs (Proofs of Business), which will lead to PoCs (Proofs of Concept), the first prototypes.
- The energy, societal and ethical impacts of quantum computing.
- Why it's difficult to anticipate rules for a field whose contours we don't yet know.
- How quantum computing may help us to understand the world better.
- How to connect to the first concrete applications and participate in research: climate, transport, AI.
