Dave Bacon (University of Washington) This is a new interdisciplinary field that bridges quantum physics, Alexandre Blais (Université de Sherbrooke) computer science, mathematics, as well as computing technologies. Masato Koashi (Osaka University) AQIS'07 is the successor of the series EQIS'01–EQIS'05 and Mikhail Lukin (Harvard University) AQIS'06. Following tradition, AQIS'07 will consist of invited talks and Ben Reichardt (California Institute of Technology) selected oral communications and posters. Peter Shor (MIT) Ronald de Wolf (CWI, Amsterdam) Submissions of abstracts for contributed talks and posters are Steering Committee Chair: sought in research areas related to quantum information science Jozef Gruska (Masaryk University, Brno) and technology, both theory and experiments.
