Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC) 2024
2024-06-24 - 2024-06-28 | Vancouver, Canada
The Annual ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC), is the flagship conference of SIGACT, the Special Interest Group on Algorithms and Computation Theory, a special interest group of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). It has been held annually since 1969, traditionally in May/June.

STOC covers all areas of research within Algorithms and Computation Theory. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: algorithms and data structures, computational complexity, randomness in computing, algorithmic graph theory and combinatorics, approximation algorithms, cryptography, computational learning theory, economics and computation, parallel and distributed algorithms, quantum computing, algorithmic coding theory, computational geometry, computational applications of logic, optimization, algebraic algorithms, and theoretical aspects of areas such as networks, privacy, computational biology, and databases. Papers that broaden the reach of the theory of computing, or raise important problems that can benefit from theoretical investigation and analysis, are encouraged.
Danny Lewin Best Student Paper Award
A prize is given to the author(s) of the best student-authored paper (or split between more than one paper if there is a tie). A paper is eligible if all of its authors are full-time students at the time of submission. This must be indicated in the submission registration process.
Business Meeting
The annual SIGACT business meeting is traditionally held during one evening of the STOC conference. Attendance is open to all members of the theoretical computer science community. SIGACT prizes, including the Knuth Prize, Gödel Prize, ACM-SIGACT Distinguished Service Prize, and the Danny Lewin Best Student Paper Award are traditionally awarded at the Business Meeting.

XPRIZE Quantum Applications
2024-06-30
QUANTUM FOR REAL-WORLD IMPACT

$5 MILLION Prize Purse

XPRIZE Quantum Applications is a 3-year, $5M global competition designed to generate quantum computing (QC) algorithms that can be put into practice to help solve real-world challenges.

OVERVIEW

QC is a multidisciplinary field at the intersection of computer science, physics, and mathematics that seeks to use the information processing power of quantum mechanics to solve otherwise difficult computational problems.

Competing teams will develop new applications for quantum computers that can address complex, global challenges in climate, sustainability, health and beyond. This is a pivotal time for quantum computing; join us in shaping a future where technology meets the world’s most pressing challenges head-on.
XPRIZE Quantum Applications is made possible thanks to the generous support of title sponsor Google Quantum AI, with funding from Google.org, and presenting partner the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator (GESDA) Foundation.

BARRIER

Currently, quantum computers are not sufficiently advanced enough to solve real-world societal problems that classical computers cannot. However, as the technology advances, relatively few companies and university researchers are focused on translating quantum algorithms into real-world application scenarios and assessing their feasibility to address global challenges once sufficiently powerful hardware is available.

BREAKTHROUGH

A future in which a diverse community of quantum experts, policymakers, and business leaders collaborates to identify and unleash the potential of quantum computing algorithms and applications to tackle some of the largest problems humanity faces.

THE IMPACT

XPRIZE Quantum Applications has the potential to transform how we tackle some of the largest problems humanity faces — a testament to XPRIZE’s dedication to pioneering and impactful innovation. This prize brings together XPRIZE’s expertise in designing, launching and executing large-scale competitions, Google Quantum AI’s extensive knowledge and leadership in advancing quantum computing, and GESDA’s global perspective and ability to convene policymakers and experts to create change. Together, our goal is to nurture the growth of an ethical and forward-looking quantum ecosystem.
While this competition marks the initial stages of uncovering the positive impacts of quantum computing on global challenges, some aspirational examples of applications might include:

Enhancing the drug discovery process by enabling more accurate predictions of how drug candidates interact with proteins in the human body.
Making simulations of electrical grid loads more efficient by improving the way we model inductors and capacitors in differential equations.
Reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency by helping us better model materials and molecules, such as those in batteries or fusion reactors.

THE COMPETITION

XPRIZE Quantum Applications is actively seeking applicants working on quantum algorithms focused on sustainability and social impact. We welcome global innovators from various fields to participate in the competition. The winning submissions will most accelerate the field of quantum algorithms towards quantum advantage for positive real-world applications.
To learn more, check out our Competition Guidelines.

The Quantum Science GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
Quantum information science has made remarkable strides, with transformational breakthroughs in even the last five years. Quantum computers are becoming increasingly powerful, and companies and researchers are exploring their potential for solving complex problems, having now demonstrated first results that go beyond the capabilities of classical simulators. Despite these advances, critical challenges remain between present capabilities and transformative, fault-tolerant quantum computing: development of error correction codes to mitigate the effects of decoherence; development of scalable hardware architectures; and even discovery of algorithms that efficiently leverage quantum advantage. Furthermore, establishing practical quantum networks requires further exploration.
This GRC aims to convene experienced and early-career researchers from both academic and industrial backgrounds, fostering discussions, idea exchange, and the juxtaposition of theoretical advancements with experimental achievements. it will encompass a diverse range of topics, spanning novel approaches to fundamental principles, quantum dynamics, and information scrambling. It will delve into innovative applications of quantum advantage and the integration of quantum computers with quantum materials. Advances in quantum metrology and sensing will be highlighted, alongside discussions on emerging applications and platforms in quantum science and simulation.
