Designing, Managing and Debugging Quantum Networks
"QUESTING is a groundbreaking Doctoral Network (DN) initiative aimed at revolutionizing the field of Quantum Technology by addressing critical gaps in interdisciplinary education and training. This program will cultivate a new generation of ""Q-System Innovators,"" equipping 15 doctoral candidates with expertise in quantum networks, hybrid classical-quantum systems, and interoperable cultural co-design. By integrating mathematics, physics, computing, and communications engineering with socio-cultural and ethical perspectives, QUESTING pioneers an innovative approach to building scalable, robust, and adaptive quantum systems. QUESTING tackles foundational challenges in quantum networking, including entanglement optimization, fault-tolerant design, and resource-efficient hybrid systems. By leveraging advanced methodologies such as small-world network modeling, Bayesian optimization, and quantum game theory, it addresses issues like the fragility of entanglement, network scalability, and adaptive fault detection. The program’s innovative approach encompasses the development of key performance indicators, physical models for noise and decoherence, and algorithms for resource management, ensuring seamless integration of quantum technologies with existing classical systems. The program's holistic methodology spans from theoretical advancements to real-world applications, including secure quantum communication, distributed resource management, and sustainable network topologies. Through its unique blend of participatory research, co-design processes, and industry-academic collaboration, QUESTING ensures alignment with global challenges such as cybersecurity, digital transformation, and equitable access to emerging technologies. This initiative is instrumental in advancing the European Union's Quantum Technologies Flagship and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, fostering innovation-driven growth while preparing Europe to lead responsibly in the quantum revolution."
