The Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Computing and Communication Foundations (CCF) division, titled "EXPANDQISE: TRACK 1: COLLABORATIVE OPTIMIZATION AND MANAGEMENT FOR ITERATIVE AND PARALLEL QUANTUM COMPUTING," will fund research to develop a quantum-classical computing system that can optimize the performance of iterative and parallel quantum applications. The $690,583 award to Fordham University, a private non-profit university, aims to create an accessible platform for quantum computing research and promote workforce development in the field through workshops and hackathons targeting underrepresented students. The project will build on open-source frameworks like Qiskit and Kubernetes to enable collaborative optimization and management of quantum-classical systems, incorporating hardware-informed techniques to improve the fidelity of quantum algorithms. This award supports the NSF CCF program's mission to advance computing, communications, and information science and engineering research and education.
