The purpose of the International Conference On Quantum Software (IQSOFT) is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the advances and business applications of quantum software. Six tracks will be held, covering different aspects of Quantum Software. IQSOFT focuses both on research on and on real-world applications of quantum software. Ideas on how to solve quantum software engineering problems and how to use quantum software in combination with other technologies such as AI will arise from the conference.

Topics

Each of these topic areas is expanded below but the sub-topics list is not exhaustive. Papers may address one or more of the listed sub-topics, although authors should not feel limited by them. Unlisted but related sub-topics are also acceptable, provided they fit in one of the following main topic areas:

1. Quantum Software Theory
2. Quantum Programming Languages
3. Quantum Software And Engineering
4. Quantum Software And Ai
5. Quantum Software Technology
6. Hybrid Quantum /Classical Software

Paper submissions

Papers describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged.

Authors can submit their work in the form of a complete paper. Complete papers can be submitted as a Regular Paper, representing completed and validated research, or as a Position Paper, portraying a short report of work in progress or an arguable opinion about an issue discussing ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research focused on one of the conference topic areas.

Authors should submit a paper in English, carefully checked for correct grammar and spelling, addressing one or several of the conference areas or topics. Each paper should clearly indicate the nature of its technical/scientific contribution, and the problems, domains or environments to which it is applicable. To facilitate the double-blind paper evaluation method, authors are kindly requested to produce and provide the paper WITHOUT any reference to any of the authors, including the authors’ personal details, the acknowledgments section of the paper and any other reference that may disclose the authors’ identity.

When submitting a complete paper please note that only original papers should be submitted. Authors are advised to read INSTICC’s ethical norms regarding plagiarism and self-plagiarism thoroughly before submitting and must make sure that their submissions do not substantially overlap work which has been published elsewhere or simultaneously submitted to a journal or another conference with proceedings. Papers that contain any form of plagiarism will be rejected without reviews. Authors should also avoid using an excessive number of self-citations.

All papers must be submitted through the online submission platform PRIMORIS and should follow the instructions and templates that can be found under Guidelines and Templates. After the paper submission has been successfully completed, authors will receive an automatic confirmation e-mail.
