Quantum Algorithms
CPSC 440/640, Course Information, Spring 2011
Office hours: Monday 2:50-3:50, Thursday 2:00-3:00
Instructor: Dr. Andreas Klappenecker
This course gives a self-contained introduction to quantum
algorithms, one of the most exciting recent developments in computer
science. We do not expect any background knowledge in quantum
computing nor in quantum physics. You should know how to multiply a
matrix with a vector, but the most important prerequisite is simply an
open mind.
Quantum computing is not difficult, but
simply different!
