POTSDAM – Clarkson University Computer Science Professor Christino Tamon has been awarded an $800,000 National Science Foundation Office of Strategic Initiatives (NSF OSI) award for his research in quantum computing. The grant is a joint collaboration with Professor Gushu Li from the Department of Computer and Information Science at the University of Pennsylvania.
The project holds significant potential to advance the field of continuous-time quantum walk, an important and versatile model of quantum computation, with broad interdisciplinary applications such as graph analysis, quantum simulation, and cryptography. This research can enhance quantum software tools and foster collaboration across diverse fields, including quantum physics, mathematics, and programming languages.
Additionally, the project integrates a robust educational component, focusing on cultivating the next-generation quantum computing talent, particularly among underrepresented demographics. By developing new course materials incorporating quantum walk concepts, the project aims to deepen our understanding of quantum physics, algorithms, and graph theory, while promoting diversity and inclusivity within science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education.
