S_1_08 — Blockchain and Decentralized Systems

Blockchain is a distributed, append-only data structure in which transactions are grouped into blocks, cryptographically linked in sequence, and validated by a decentralized network of nodes using a consensus mechanism —

S_1_11 — Machine Learning and Deep Learning

Machine learning (ML) is the subfield of AI in which systems learn patterns from data rather than being explicitly programmed. Deep learning uses artificial neural networks with many layers (hence "deep") to learn hierar

Education technology (EdTech) applies digital tools to learning and instruction. MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses): launched with high ambitions — Coursera (Stanford, 2012), edX (MIT/Harvard, 2012), Udacity (Stanford,

ZA_5_09 — Quantum Simulation: Programming Nature to Model Nature

Quantum simulation — using one controllable quantum system to emulate the behavior of another, less tractable quantum system — was proposed by Richard Feynman in 1982 as a natural solution to the fundamental difficulty o

ZA_5_05 — Quantum Error Correction: Protecting Quantum Information from Decoherence

Quantum error correction (QEC) — the encoding of quantum information across multiple physical qubits to protect it from decoherence and operational errors — is widely regarded as the critical enabling technology for larg
