Understanding Qiskit: Quantum by Quantum - GeoPython 2021
Anmol Krishan Sachdeva
High Peformance Computing using Quantum Computing is the future and the GIS community should start learning about its concepts and implementation techniques in order to leverage Quantum Computing for solving complex spatial problems. This talk focuses on introducing the basic concepts of Quantum Computing using Qiskit.
Qiskit is a popular open-source, feature-rich, and modular Quantum Computing Python SDK by IBM. It enables working with Quantum Computers at the level of circuits, algorithms, and application modules.
