CALL FOR PAPERS AQIS 2007 *********************************************************** Asian Conference on Quantum Information Science Shiran Kaikan, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan September 3 - 6, 2007 http://qc.naist.jp/aqis07/ *********************************************************** AQIS'07 will focus on quantum information science and technology. This is a new interdisciplinary field that bridges quantum physics, computer science, mathematics, as well as computing technologies. AQIS'07 is the successor of the series EQIS'01-EQIS'05 and AQIS'06. Following tradition, AQIS'07 will consist of invited talks and selected oral communications and posters. Submissions of abstracts for contributed talks and posters are sought in research areas related to quantum information science and technology, both theory and experiments. These include, but are not limited to: * Quantum algorithms and complexity theory * Quantum cryptography * Quantum information theory * Quantum entanglement and non-locality * Quantum error-correction and decoherence-free subspaces * Quantum optics, NMR, and solid-state technologies * Quantum processors and computer design schemes * Quantum programming languages and semantics IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline: July 1, 2007 Notification of Acceptance: August 1, 2007 Final Manuscript Deadline: August 15, 2007 Early Registration Deadline: August 7, 2007 Registration Deadline: August 25, 2007 INVITED SPEAKERS Scott Aaronson (University of Waterloo) Dave Bacon (University of Washington) Alexandre Blais (Universite de Sherbrooke) Masato Koashi (Osaka University) Mikhail Lukin (Harvard University) Peter Shor (MIT) Ronald de Wolf (CWI, Amsterdam) COMMITTEES Steering Committee Chair Jozef Gruska (Masaryk University, Brno) Conference Co-Chairs Hiroshi Imai (University of Tokyo/ERATO-SORST) Kazuo Iwama (Kyoto University) Program Committee Scott Aaronson (University of Waterloo) Dorit Aharonov (Hebrew University) Charles H.
