Still Hacking Anyway (SHA2017),
Aug. 4, 2017, 8 p.m.
(60 minutes).
The goal of Quantum Internet project at TU Delft is to build an optically-connected network of many (small) quantum computers. Such a network enables the exchange of quantum bits between any of the connected quantum processors in order to solve problems that are intractable classically. #science #networksecurity
In this talk, Stephanie will invite fellow hackers to join in testing the prototypes, and join in the future building of Quantum Internet. Currently, Dutch test-bed is the leading edge of the developments in the world, but in the future this could be brought to the actual prduction network - with your help.
