Quantum computing is entering a new phase
Quantum computing is entering a new phase:
Quantum circuits are no longer fixed sequences, but can adapt in real time through mid-circuit measurements, conditional logic, and classical feedback loops within the coherence window of the qubits. These adaptive methods are moving from theory into practice, becoming critical for scalable calibration, quantum error correction, and enhanced algorithmic performance across multiple architectures.
Adaptive Quantum Circuits (AQC) conference offers a unique chance to engage directly with the forefront of quantum research, build collaborations across communities, and shape the direction of this rapidly evolving field.
Topics will include adaptive protocols, mid-circuit measurements, dynamic calibration, quantum error correction, decoding, and hybrid quantum–classical computing. These capabilities are central not only to advancing towards fault tolerance, but also to delivering useful performance in today’s devices.
