Improving Quality of Large-scale Software: Cloud-based and Quantum-computing-based Solutions

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This proposal aims to mitigate two groups of risks that emerge during software development and maintenance. The first group pertains to building robust large-scale Cloud solutions. The second group is the result of the emergence and growing application of quantum computers. Our objectives are to improve health monitoring of Cloud systems, make software quantum-safe, improve the quality of software running on quantum computers, and speed up software engineering tasks with the help of quantum computers. The expected results would boost the robustness of Cloud services (from critical services to e-commerce platforms). Moreover, they will make software products (such as web browsers and databases) more secure by showing how to make them quantum-safe. Furthermore, they will improve the software quality for quantum computers, which may facilitate research and development in various fields (for instance, physics, chemistry, and pharmacology).
