Accelerated Research in Quantum Computing (ARQC)
The DOE SC program in Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) hereby announces its interest in receiving applications from large multi-disciplinary teams (requesting support of more than $2 million per year) with the potential to dramatically accelerate research in quantum computing (QC). This FOA solicits applications for Accelerated Research in Quantum Computing (ARQC) Teams that will adopt a holistic and disciplined approach to address basic research gaps in the abstractions, methods and tools that connect QC applications to hardware.
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Pitt is seeking course proposals for its Fall 2018 Term. OLLI courses are typically 1x a week for 5 weeks. Each term offers 2 sessions of courses. We seek course proposals in a variety of areas including: literature, history, political science and government, the arts, sciences, languages and more. Most OLLI designed courses are similar to actual college courses (but no tests or grades, abbreviated content, and shortened to run for 5 weeks).
On behalf of the Secretary of the Air Force, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) began a review of the US Air Force science and technology strategy to maintain its technological advantage and meet the national security challenges of 2030 and beyond. To support this effort, AFOSR, the basic research directorate of AFRL, is reaching out to its community across the US to capture a diversity of ideas.
