    Solving Complex Computational Problems with Supercomputers and Quantum Computers

    17 Oct 2026
    Lecture Hall Alfa, Faculty of Information Studies, Ljubljanska cesta 31a, Novo mesto
    Rudolfovo – Science and Technology Centre Novo mesto invites you to a practical workshop as part of Exascale Day – SLING Open Doors, on Friday, October 17, 2025, at 10:00 AM, in Lecture Hall Alfa, Faculty of Information Studies, Ljubljanska cesta 31a, Novo mesto. Participants will learn how to solve challenging Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problems effectively using the BiqBin solver. The workshop will cover how to run BiqBin locally on a personal computer or on a supercomputer, and how to connect it with the D-Wave quantum computer to leverage the advantages of quantum computing. As a practical example, the application of QUBO models for portfolio optimization will be presented. The 90-minute workshop offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience with advanced optimization methods that combine high-performance computing and quantum computing. Attendance is limited to ten participants, so early registration is recommended. Register by emailing: katja.sinur@rudolfovo.eu

    Advanced Cryogenics for Research Infrastructures (training course, on-site)

    11 Nov 2026 — 12 Nov 2026
    Forschungszentrum Jülich
    Cryogenics – the science of extremely low temperatures – serves as the invisible backbone of modern high-level research. Without the ability to cool systems down to near absolute zero, many of today’s scientific breakthroughs would be impossible. From enabling superconductivity in particle accelerators and fusion reactors to stabilising qubits in quantum computers, cryogenics is the "enabling technology" behind many large-scale research infrastructures. This course explores the advanced techniques and technologies involved in building, maintaining and troubleshooting cryogenic systems, as well as integrating them with quantum devices. * Millikelvin techniques: dilution refrigerators, adiabatic demagnetisation, pulse-tube systems * Advanced cryostat design: thermal anchoring, radiation shielding, vibration isolation * Vacuum technologies: UHV systems, leak detection, bake-out procedures, troubleshooting * Cryocooler maintenance: pulse tube, Gifford-McMahon (GM), Joule-Thomson (JT) expanders; reliability, efficiency optimisation * Systems engineering: integration with quantum devices, sensors and control loops * Failure analysis: case studies, root cause analysis, predictive maintenance; hands-on repairs
