PhD project

Quantum computation is an exciting development in computer technology, with a theoretical basis that was formalised in the early 1990s. 

Practical-minded technologists are interested in how to design the architecture and the interfaces for these computers, theorists continue to investigate the model and how it contrasts to ‘classical’ computation, and everyone tries to find new techniques to solve problems involving this counterintuitive model of computation.
