Advance Program-at-a-Glance
QCE24-Advance-Program-at-a-Glance.pdf
IEEE Quantum Week 2024 has formed an Exceptional Program with exciting exhibits featuring technologies from quantum companies, start-ups and research labs. The Advance Program-at-a-Glance in the form of a six-page PDF file (one page per day) provides links to all the QCE24 sessions for ease of access. The QCE24 Conference App will also provide easy access to the conference sessions.

Technical Paper Sessions
222 Technical Papers Program with Best Papers — Sessions Agenda
IEEE Quantum Week aims to be a leading venue for presenting high-quality original research, ground-breaking innovations, and compelling insights in quantum computing and engineering. Technical papers are peer-reviewed, can be on any topic related to quantum computing and engineering, and are considered by different technical paper tracks. The papers are published in IEEE Xplore.
Proceedings & Best Papers
- Papers accepted to and presented at IEEE International Conference on Quantum Computing & Engineering (QCE24) will be submitted to IEEE Xplore Digital Library and IEEE Computer Society Digital Library (CSDL) in September 2024.
- The best QCE24 papers will be recommended to the journals IEEE Transactions on Quantum Engineering (TQE) and ACM Transactions on Quantum Computing (TQC).
- QCE24 will award Best Paper Awards for the Technical Program Tracks. The QCE24 Best Paper Awards will be presented in the plenary sessions before the keynote presentations on the day the respective paper is being presented.
Reviewing Guidelines
QCE24 received a record number of 450+ technical paper manuscripts―an increase of 150+ compared to QCE23. At least three reviewers must review each manuscript, and each reviewer is expected to review 6-8 papers.
