DESCRIPTION:\n\nCLOUD COMPUTING SEMINAR SERIES\n\n\n\nTitle: From cloud to 
 quantum: building a new generation of computation\nSpeaker: Dr. Ritajit Ma
 jumdar\, IBM Quantum\nDate &amp\; Time : Wed 12 Nov\, 1130AM\nVenue: CDS 1
 02 Seminar Hall\n_________________________________________________________
 ___________________________________\n\nAbstract: As classical computing ap
 proaches its physical and architectural limits\, new paradigms are emergin
 g to extend computational power. This talk explores how quantum computing\
 , once confined to theory\, is becoming accessible through the cloud\, cre
 ating a bridge between digital infrastructure and quantum systems. In this
  session we shall briefly look into the basics of quantum principles—sup
 erposition\, entanglement\, and interference—and give some insights into
  the current state-of-the-art. Next\, we shall dive into the quantum softw
 are stack\, cloud-based quantum access\, and related areas where inputs fr
 om cloud experts can enhance the workflow. We shall conclude the session w
 ith some qiskit codes showing the execution of some basic quantum circuits
  on IBM Quantum hardware.\n\nBio: Dr. Ritajit Majumdar is a Research Scien
 tist at IBM Quantum\, based at the IBM India Research Lab. He is a part of
  the Quantum Algorithm and Engineering team where he collaborates with res
 earchers to attain utility scale breakthroughs using IBM Quantum technolog
 ies. He holds a PhD from the Indian Statistical Institute\, during which h
 e spent a significant period as a visiting scholar at the IBM Thomas J. Wa
 tson Research Center in New York with the prestigious Fulbright-Nehru Doct
 oral Research Fellowship. He is a recipient of the Gold Medal from Calcutt
 a University for his Master's degree and was honored with the esteemed DST
  Inspire Fellowship. In addition to his work at IBM\, he has also served a
 s full-time and part-time faculties at Calcutta University\, S. N. Bose Ce
 ntre for Basic Sciences and West Bengal University of Technology.\n\nHost 
 Faculty: Prof. Yogesh Simmhan\n\n\n\nAbout: The IBM-IISc Hybrid Cloud Lab 
 (IIHCL) hosted at IISc is curating the Cloud Computing Seminar series with
  guest speakers from Industry and Academia speaking about the latest techn
 ologies and research on Cloud and edge computing\, distributed computing s
 ystems\, and AI/ML/Big Data platforms.\n\n\n\nALL ARE WELCOME
