The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $400,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) to the Research Foundation for The State University of New York, doing business as Stony Brook University. The project, titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: CSR: MEDIUM: SCALABLE QUANTUM COMPUTING WITH VIRTUAL QUANTUM MACHINES", aims to interconnect multiple quantum processing units (QPUs) to create a scalable quantum computing system with significantly more quantum bits (qubits) than a single QPU. The research will investigate qubit entanglement, mapping algorithms, and optimal physical interconnections to establish the algorithmic foundation for building efficient and scalable quantum computing systems. This project is expected to have a profound impact on solving critical problems in areas such as artificial intelligence, climate change, drug development, and transportation management through the advancement of practical quantum computing applications. The award period is from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2028.
