Creating a Quantum Programming Course from Scratch: A Computer Science Professor's Journey

Joshua T. Guerin

Quantum Computing is generating significant excitement within the interdisciplinary academic community, government, and industry. Despite rapid growth in the area, formal education in non-classical computing is limited or absent in many computer science programs. Among the contributing factors is the cutting-edge nature of the field and, until somewhat recently, lack of available platforms for development.

Quantum Computing—A Journey Through Time

Naresh Tangudu, Deepak Davala, G. V. L. Narasimha +1 more

Quantum computing is a development that bridges quantum physics and computer science. It is an emergent field in computer science uses the unique qualities of quantum mechanics to solve large problems that beyond the ability of most powerful classical computers. This paper examines the historical evolution of quantum computing from its initial conceptual idea in 1930s to current implementations and further possibilities. The foundation of this concept began in the 1930s with the work of scientists like Heisenberg and Schrödinger, who established fundamental principles for understanding quantum mechanical systems. Further, in the 1980s, Feynman conceptualized the application of quantum phenomena to computational processes and started the quantum computing prototype. In early 1994, a crucial juncture occurred when Shor developed his factorization algorithm and stated that quantum computing has the ability to solve RSA encryption by promising security concerns. This chapter explains in detail different quantum machines, like qubit technology and various algorithms in quantum ages, and addresses the concepts of quantum computing that surpass classical computers and development hurdles like error correction and programming frameworks. This work concludes by examining quantum computing applications in different industries and cost considerations in research and development by providing both current and future possibilities in this dynamic field.

The Researched: Classical Physics, Quantum Mechanics and the Social Reality—A Paradigm Shift?

Atila Yüksel

This chapter embarks on a journey through the evolving intersections of classical and quantum paradigms, examining their implications for the social sciences. Beginning with the classical paradigm and its limitations, the discussion introduces the philosophical foundations and revolutionary insights of quantum mechanics, challenging traditional assumptions of reality. Key quantum concepts such as uncertainty, complementarity, entanglement, and the probabilistic nature of the wave function are explored to reveal a world marked by interconnectedness and discontinuity. The chapter then reconsiders fundamental constructs of space, time, and causality, investigating quantum non-locality, the complex nature of time, and the nuances of causation beyond mere correlation. Expanding beyond physics, the discussion reimagines social science methodologies, proposing a reconceptualization of reality that embraces quantum perspectives. This framework shifts the understanding of the “researched” from a classical to a quantum human, urging a methodological and philosophical reorientation in social science inquiry.
