1st International Workshop on
Q-STRIDE - Quantum Solutions for Technology Resilience & Infrastructure Development Enhancement
in conjunction with
26th IEEE International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM),2025,
May 27-30, 2025, Fort Worth, Texas, USA
As we enter a new era in computing, quantum technologies are poised to reshape the landscape of cyberinfrastructure, offering innovative solutions to the challenges faced by today’s digital systems. Quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum sensing are rapidly transitioning from theoretical concepts to practical applications, with the potential to revolutionize sectors like cybersecurity, healthcare, finance, and environmental health. These technologies can address problems that classical systems struggle with, ushering in a new era of secure, efficient, and resilient infrastructures.
Quantum computing enables the processing of vast data sets simultaneously, tackling complex optimization and simulation problems in a fraction of the time traditional computers would take. Quantum communication offers unprecedented data security through quantum encryption, safeguarding sensitive information against evolving cyber threats. Quantum sensing, with its ability to provide highly precise measurements, opens new frontiers in fields such as environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, and industrial applications. However, the integration of these technologies into existing infrastructures presents challenges. As quantum systems evolve, they must work seamlessly with legacy systems while ensuring security and functionality. This creates an opportunity for interdisciplinary collaboration, where researchers, industry leaders, and policymakers explore how quantum technologies can enhance and complement current infrastructures. Quantum innovations are set to address critical issues like data privacy, network optimization, and secure communication, providing solutions to long-standing challenges in cybersecurity and system performance.
Q-STRIDE aims to explore the transformative potential of quantum technologies in cyberinfrastructure and structural biology. We invite researchers and professionals to submit original research, case studies, and technical papers that showcase practical applications of quantum technologies in building secure, resilient systems. We are particularly interested in applications that leverage quantum technologies for societal good, such as modeling environmental health risks and addressing global challenges like public health and climate change. Join us to explore how quantum innovations will redefine cybersecurity and shape the future of digital infrastructures.
In today's digital age, the rapid expansion and increasing complexity of data demand innovative solutions for building secure, efficient, and resilient cyberinfrastructure. Quantum technologies—including quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum sensing—offer transformative potential to address challenges that conventional systems cannot resolve. Q-STRIDE will harness these advancements to enhance cyberinfrastructure through secure data processing, advanced cryptography, and robust network resilience. Participants will explore key applications, such as quantum algorithms for complex problem-solving, quantum-secure communication to counter emerging cyber threats, and quantum-enhanced sensing for real-time monitoring and optimization. These innovations hold significant promise across industries like healthcare, finance, and national security.
The workshop will foster interdisciplinary collaboration, uniting researchers, industry leaders, and policymakers to exchange ideas, address research gaps, and examine ethical and societal implications. Through interactive sessions, attendees will gain actionable insights and hands-on skills to integrate quantum technologies into their domains. By bridging the gap between pioneering quantum research and practical applications, this workshop aims to shape a quantum-ready cyberinfrastructure, equipping participants to navigate the challenges and seize the opportunities of the quantum era.
