*** ABOUT IEEE QSW AND IEEE SERVICES CONGRESS ***

The 3rd IEEE International Conference on Quantum Software (IEEE QSW 2024) eagerly invites the global community to explore the expanding horizon of quantum software engineering. This year, we delve deeper into the intricacies and innovations of quantum computing, with a keen focus on high-performance computing with quantum computers, hybrid quantum software, and AI-assisted quantum development. The core aim of IEEE QSW 2024 is to foster an environment of collaboration and knowledge sharing, where the latest developments in quantum software applications, analysis and evolution, engineering, and cloud integration are brought to the forefront. Join us at IEEE QSW 2024 to be part of a transformative journey that shapes the future of quantum software engineering.

The 2024 IEEE World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2024)

is solely sponsored by IEEE and the IEEE Computer Society under the auspice of the Technical Community on Services Computing (TCSVC). The scope of SERVICES 2024 covers all aspects of services computing and applications, current or emerging. Centered around services computing, SERVICES 2024 covers various systems and networking research pertaining to cloud, edge and Internet-of Things (IoT), as well as technologies for intelligent computing, learning, Big Data and blockchain applications, addressing critical issues such as knowledge network, high performance, security, privacy, dependability, trustworthiness, and costeffectiveness. Particularly, the 2024 Congress will welcome papers on the continued aftermath and the impact of COVID-19 on services and the world infrastructure. Besides theme-topic conferences, the Congress will also include symposia and workshops supporting deep-dive discussions on emerging important topics, and complement the SERVICES 2024 program with industry and application presentations and panels
