University of Parma brings expertise from computer engineering and physics in the domain of quantum compiling for local/distributed quantum computing, simulation of quantum networks for the design and analysis of quantum protocols, quantum computing, and quantum simulation. They will work on developing network services that support distributed quantum computing over a quantum network.University of Parma is also leading the QIA Use Case Team, which provides expertise in the development, simulation, and benchmarking of (quantum) applications and protocols of communication networks.
