Organizers: Gilles Brassard (Montréal), Richard Cleve (Calgary)

Description:
The use of quantum mechanics for information processing purposes has the potential to bring about a spectacular revolution in computer science by harnessing phenomena that have no classical counterpart. The workshop will concentrate on computer science aspects of this emerging discipline: quantum computing, quantum cryptography, measures and uses of entanglement, quantum information theory.

Speakers: C. Bennett (IBM Research), A. Berthiaume (DePaul), T. Beth (Karlsruhe), G. Brassard (Montréal), , H. Buhrman (CWI, Amsterdam), R. Cleve (Calgary), C. Crépeau (McGill), D. DiVincenzo (IBM Research), A. Ekert (Oxford), C. Fuchs (California Institute of Technology), L. Grover (Lucent), P. Høyer (Odense), R. Jozsa (Plymouth), T. Mor (UCLA), M. Mosca (Waterloo), J. Preskill (California Institute of Technology), P. Shor (AT&T Labs-Research), A. Tapp (Montréal), U. Vazirani (UC Berkeley)
