The European Commission has made available the prepublication version of the calls for the ICT part of the Work-programme 2018-2020. the documents contains the call for the QKD testbed

QuSoft, the PCQC and the University of Latvia started a collaboration to develop quantum software.

In January 2017 the QuantERA Consortium will announce a Call for Proposals in the field of quantum technologies.

China’s quantum network could soon span two continents, thanks to a satellite launched on Aug 15.

Following the nomination of the chair, Prof. Mlynek, the Commission has now formally set-up the Commission Expert Group, with 13 very high level academic members, that will provide recommendations on the preparation of the Quantum Technology Flagship.

Physical Review A has recently changed its formal statement of coverage to explicitly include Quantum Information.

A realization of a scalable Shor algorithm, as proposed by Kitaev, is presented, factoring the number 15 by effectively employing and controlling seven qubits and four “cache qubits” and by implementing generalized arithmetic operations, known as modular multipliers.

IOP Publishing is announcing the launch of Quantum Science and Technology, a new, high-impact journal engaged with advances in fundamental quantum information science and related quantum-enabled technologies.
