QUICS

Quantum Innovation and Computing for SMEs

QUICS is a quantum computing test and consulting center tailored to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).

  • QUICS aims to create low-threshold opportunities for enterprises — especially SMEs — and other institutions interested in exploring the potential of quantum computing. Our goal is to provide these organizations with the necessary consulting and resources to identify and implement potential quantum computing use cases in their business processes.
  • QUICS will offer a comprehensive testing platform that provides a wide range of software and hardware solutions, including alternative classical approaches. We also offer tailored training and consulting services, particularly focusing on use case requirement analysis. This enables SMEs to better assess their resource requirements, supporting the successful evaluation of quantum computing for future practical applications.

Vehicle Routing Problem with Quantum Annealing
Vehicle Routing Problem with Quantum Annealing
Quantum annealing helps solve complex logistics problems like the Vehicle Routing Problem. We split it into cluster and route phases, encode as QUBO, and solve with a D-Wave simulator. This is a glimpse into the future of more efficient supply chains.

Gate-based Quantum Computing vs Quantum Annealing
Gate-based Quantum Computing vs Quantum Annealing
Gate-based quantum computing and quantum annealing are two approaches to implement quantum computing. The former is universal, the latter ideal for optimization. The choice depends on your problem — and your hardware.

Quantum Computing for Condensed Matter Physics
Quantum Computing for Condensed Matter Physics
OpenFermion makes it easy to simulate complex quantum systems like the Bose-Hubbard model using quantum computing. We explore the transition from superfluidity to the Mott insulator and observe how the phase reoccurs. This is a peek into how quantum computing is shaping the future of condensed matter physics.
