The Quantum Communications and Information Technology (QCIT’16) workshop is dedicated to explore the new opportunities for application of communications theory and technologies to quantum technology.

Over the last decade, a variety of physical quantum computing devices has been demonstrated and used for fundamental experiments in laboratories. Results confirm the feasibility of practical applications in quantum communications and quantum information processing related fields. Some specific applications, such as quantum key distribution are already close to the market. However, the step from a quantum technology based device to a real system carrying out a communications or information processing task has not been completed at the time of writing.

Come and join this workshop to connect with people from academia and industry to discuss and progress all the theory, technology and applications and to exchange ideas conceived for progressing the engineering and development of this exciting new field.
