DESCRIPTION:Our Distinguished Speaker\, Dr. Chuck Easttom\, begins with a b
 rief overview of quantum computing\, including essential concepts and hist
 orical milestones. Then current research is discussed. This includes work 
 in quantum key distribution\, quantum proof cryptography\, and quantum inf
 ormation. The current status of developments in quantum computing are cove
 red. This means this talk is updated every time it is given.\n\n[]\n\nSome
  feedback for Dr. Easttom in a prior year:\n\n&quot;I would like to take a mome
 nt to express my sincere appreciation for this informative event. Thank yo
 u very much for hosting this excellent session.&quot; -- Amir Yahyaeian&quot;\n\n&quot;I 
 thought the presentation was very good and enjoyed it.&quot; -- Ralph Prichard\
 , PE\n\n&quot;Thanks. That was an excellent presentation! Looking forward to mo
 re awesome sessions on hardware\, quantum\, AI\, etc.&quot; -- Rajat Joy\n\n&quot;It
 ’s a fascinating topic and it was clear to me that Dr. Easttom is an aut
 hority on the subject. As a networking professional my primary concern is 
 tracking the adoption of newer encryption methodologies and encouraging cu
 stomers to adopt larger key sizes with an eye toward new algorithm use.&quot; -
