DESCRIPTION:Quantum computers are currently small and noisy devices\, with
  little commercial value or advantage over classical alternatives. As thes
 e computers continue to grow\, the challenge not only becomes creating and
  maintaining a collection of qubits\, but also building the control system
  to make them useful. The software and hardware that forms the control sta
 cks for current devices will not scale\, and this must change. The solutio
 n requires a multidisciplinary approach that integrates rapid advancements
  in both quantum software and systems engineering.\n\nBio:\nKenton Barnes 
 is a Quantum Engineer at Riverlane\, involved in the design of the archite
 cture for an operating system for quantum computers. He has previously res
 earched the automatic creation of quantum programs\, using both the circui
 t model and category-theoretic approaches.\n
