These networks are used to prevent or respond to incidents that pose a threat to people or property. Traditionally, these PSNs were supported by reliable, but low-rate radio technologies that provide limited services such as voice communication among Public Safety Users (PSUs). Consequently, their capability to take advantage of recent developments in wireless networks and broadband applications was restricted. At the forefront of wireless communication technologies, 5th Generation (5G) and beyond Cellular Networks (CNs), are ideal for this purpose due to their advanced infrastructure and tailored techniques developed for broadband services. Their capacity for high data transmission, low latency in data exchange, and ability to support a significant number of connected devices make them perfectly suited to overcome the limitations associated with PSNs. Integrating PSNs into 5G can Plus d'infos

Cornet Seminar – Éric Bourreau – 23/06/2023

23 June 2023

In the context of team Cornet’s seminars, Éric Bourreau (LIRMM) will present his research work on Quantum Computers, a New Information Technology Revolution?, on June 23, 2023, at 11:35 in the meeting room. Abstract: The concept of quantum computing dates back to the late 1980s, and the first quantum algorithms were born in the 1990s. However, the novelty of recent years is the construction of actual quantum machines that are beginning to validate the theory. This seminar will attempt to explain how the definition of QuBits (quantum bits) gives rise to a new paradigm of computation. We will try to understand what computational power is now being offered and at what point quantum optimization could become competitive with ‘classical’ optimization methods.
