Overview
CQIQC-V will be the fifth in the series of biennial conferences jointly
organized by the Toronto Centre for Quantum Information & Quantum
Control and the Fields Institute, which aim to bring together researchers
from a broad set of areas ranging from quantum cryptography and computation
to quantum control to quantum foundations to device fabrication, in
a setting which encourages discussion and can help stimulate new collaborations
and interactions. The 2013 meeting will also be a celebration of the
upcoming quinquagenary of Bell’s Inequalities, slightly violating
the inequality atop this flyer. There will be roughly 24 invited talks
and 24 contributed talks, as well as a poster session. The meeting
will also be the occasion of the awarding of the 3rd biennial
John Stewart Bell Prize for Research on Fundamental Issues in Quantum
Mechanics and Their Applications, see http://cqiqc.physics.utoronto.ca/bell_prize/home.html

Poster Session
There will also be at least one poster session, during which we
expect to give an opportunity to more young researchers to present
work that did not fit into the main schedule, as well as several
sessions devoted to focused discussion on a number of topics raised
during the meeting. The meeting will involve researchers at all
stages of their careers, including participation by graduate students.
Accepted posters.
