DESCRIPTION:The IEEE NSS CAS/SP/COM and Computer Chapters invites you to an
  engaging technical presentation exploring one of the most ambitious engin
 eering challenges of our time: building a practical quantum computer.\n\nT
 his talk will provide a high-level overview of the leading quantum computi
 ng hardware technologies\, examine the key physical and engineering constr
 aints affecting scalability and performance\, and discuss what will be req
 uired to transition from experimental systems to useful\, large-scale quan
 tum machines.\n\n📅 Date: November 12\n🕠 Time: 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM\n
