Program Details

General Information

All conference talks will take place in the Calvert Ballroom (Salons AB), located on the second floor of The Hotel@UMD.

TQC invited talks are 40min plus 5min for questions. Merged talks are 30 min and other talks are 25 min (inclusive of questions). This year TQC has instituted an Outstanding Paper Award which has a longer talk duration of 35min plus 5min for questions.

The NISQ workshop will be held at the Brendan Iribe Center on the University of Maryland campus. NISQ invited talks are 35min plus 10min for questions and discussions.

The space available for each poster is 4ft x 4ft which will accommodate either landscape or portrait A0 posters.
