The official website for the project is online.

Consortium

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The consortium covers the full value chain of quantum software development — from high-level programming and compiler infrastructure through to hardware integration and application validation. It is geographically distributed across Europe and South Korea, in line with the EU–ROK cooperation objectives of the call.

Each partner names a representative — the person scientifically responsible for the project at that institution, its local principal investigator — and a deputy who stands in for them.

Consortium resources

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

These services are for consortium members. This page is public — it only explains how to reach them; the services themselves are behind a login.

The services

Nextcloud — file storage, at /cloud
Forgejo — code repositories, at /git
Authelia — the single sign-on portal, at /auth
This website — public project site

How signing in works

All access goes through Authelia, the single sign-on portal. There is no separate username and password for Nextcloud or Forgejo: you sign in once through Authelia and both accept that login. Direct login with a local password is not available for regular users.

Coordination

The project is coordinated by Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI), Italy. Gerardo Pelosi is the project coordinator, with Giovanni Agosta as deputy.

Partner contacts

Each partner’s representative and deputy are listed on the consortium page, and each work package’s leader on the work packages page.

Following the project

News and results are posted on the news page, which is also available as an RSS feed.

Events

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The consortium runs joint EU–ROK workshops and training sessions (WP3), and presents results at scientific and industrial venues. Public outreach includes events such as the European Researchers’ Night and local science fairs.

By the end of the project the consortium aims for 20 conference participations, two workshops and one hackathon.

Media kit

Everything here may be reused to write or talk about QuoUSKWe, provided the project is credited and the EU funding acknowledgement is kept intact.

How to refer to the project

Acronym: QuoUSKWe (pronounced kwo-us-kwe, from the Latin quousque, “up to which limit”)
Full name: Quantum computing European Union–South Korea Working Team

Outcomes

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

QuoUSKWe commits to open science. Peer-reviewed publications are made openly accessible immediately on publication, research data is managed according to the FAIR principles under the project’s data management plan, and the compiler toolchain and application code are released as open source alongside a commercial exploitation track.

Use cases

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The project’s software stack is not built in the abstract. Three high-impact applications drive its requirements and prove its worth: quantum cryptanalysis, simulation of strongly correlated systems, and Quantum AI for 6G networks.

All three are executed on IQM’s superconducting quantum hardware through the cloud (T4.5) and assessed against performance, reliability and scalability criteria (T4.6), creating a feedback loop between algorithm design, hardware constraints and application needs.

Strategic KPI 3 — develop and validate at least three killer applications for quantum computing.

Work packages

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Each work package is led by one beneficiary. The work package leader is the person responsible for running it; each participating institution’s representative is the person scientifically responsible there.

Tasks list the institution leading them. Named task leaders are still being settled and will be added here as they are confirmed.
