We are excited to announce the Assessing Performance of Quantum Computers (APQC) 2027 workshop (May 3-6, 2027 in Estes Park, CO). APQC brings together experts in QCVV, quantum hardware, error correction, and algorithms to measure the performance and power of cutting-edge quantum computational hardware. Applications are welcome. Full consideration will be given to applications received by December 31, 2026. Later applications may be considered if space permits.
In 2019, the Sandia Quantum Performance Laboratory (QPL) organized the inaugural APQC workshop (September, 2019 in Estes Park, CO). APQC 2019 was jointly organized with the University of New Mexico’s CQuIC, with support from the National Science Foundation. The 2023 workshop, held four years and one pandemic later, successfully reconnected the community after a long hiatus. The APQC workshop is now held annually to continue fostering collaboration and innovation in the field of quantum computing performance assessment. APQC will now be hosted by the Association of High Speed Computing and co-sponsored by the Quantum Performance Laboratory.
As in previous years, APQC 2027 will focus on approaches, techniques, and theories for assessing the quality and performance of quantum computational hardware. The goal of APQC is to bring together experts in all the fields that are essential to performance assessment – including QCVV, quantum algorithms, quantum computational utility and advantage, quantum error correction, and experimental quantum hardware – to stimulate advances in the emerging field of quantum performance assessment.
