This year’s edition featured 41 participants and a scientific programme with 31 presentations.

Vacancies in Quantum Computing

Our group has to offer two PhD positions in Interdisciplinary Doctoral Program in Quantum Systems Integration at RWTH Aachen University. The first is about formal methods for supporting the development of zero-defect quantum programs, while the second aims to provide a systematic framework for compiling quantum software to computing architectures featuring qubit shuttling. For details, […]

Thesis Awards

During the virtual Tag der Informatik, two students of our group have been awarded for their final theses. Florian Keßler received the CS Department Award for his bachelor’s thesis On the Decidability of Entailment Checking in Quantitative Separation Logics, while Jan Svejda received the DSA Industrial Award for his master’s thesis entitled Interpretation-Based Violation Witness Validator. Congratulations!

ICT Young Researcher Award

On October 30, the ICT Young Researcher Award 2020 has been awarded to Christopher Brix, who did his master thesis entitled Proving Non-Existence of Imperceptible Adversarial Examples in Deep Neural Networks Using Symbolic Propagation With Error Bounds in our group. The award is given to students at Bachelor, Master and Ph.D. level at RWTH Aachen […]
