In cooperation with IBM Germany, the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft is establishing a national competence network in the research field of quantum computing. With the participation of currently eleven Fraunhofer Institutes, specialist expertise is being pooled in regional competence centers. On our Institute the Center for Quantum HPC has been established. The focus of the Competence Center Quantum Computing Rhineland-Palatinate is on quantum High Performance Computing.

It’s that time of year. It’s spring and that also means trade fair time, including job fair time – mixing technology experts and curious visitors to meet, connect and exchange experiences. For example, at the European level in Croatia. On May 17-18, 2023, we will participate in the career fair in Zagreb. Visit the company’s booths, participate in talks, workshops, and panel discussions, get familiar with current technological trends and opportunities in a relaxed atmosphere. We have a booth at the fair and look forward to seeing many interested students or doctoral candidates. Come and visit us!

Programmable materials are true shape-shifters. At the push of a button, they change their properties in a controlled and reversible manner and adapt independently to new conditions. Areas of application include comfortable seating or mattresses that prevent bedsores. In this case, the carpet pad deforms in such a way that the contact surface is large and the pressure on the body parts is reduced as a result. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Cluster of Excellence »Programmable Materials« CPM are developing such programmable materials and bringing them to market together with industrial partners. One of the aims is to reduce the use of resources.
