- Description
- The U.S. Army Research Office (ARO) announces the availability of Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) No. W911NF-06-R-0010 for Experimental and Theoretical Development of Quantum Information Science. ARO together with the Disruptive Technologies Office (DTO) solicits research proposals in the following categories: (1) Quantum Computing Concept Maturation proposals are specifically for combined experimental and theoretical studies of potential physical embodiments of quantum bits and quantum logic, perha ps including studies in the related fields of quantum error correction, control, decoherence, and entanglement; (2) Short-Term, Innovative Concept proposals are smaller, short-term (1-3 year) experimental or theoretical studies exploring new quantum comput ing concepts that could engender a larger scale project in the future; (3) Quantum Algorithm proposals should primarily develop new quantum computing algorithms, but may also consider issues of quantum computational complexity and computability; (4) Quantu m Enabling Technologies proposals should primarily develop special technologies or devices difficult to procure, or unavailable commercially, that are critical to the quantum computing and quantum communications projects; and (5) Quantum Computing and Comm unications Research Fellowships are proposals for graduate students or postdocs who are U.S. citizens working on quantum computing or communications research in areas described in the BAA. The BAA contains additional information along with instructions fo r white paper and proposal preparation and submission. White papers are required and must be received at ARO by 4:00 P.M. Eastern Daylight Saving Time on August 30, 2006. Proposals must be received at ARO by 4:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time on December 11 , 2006. Electronic submission of white papers and proposals is required. This BAA may be found on AROs website at http://www.aro.army.mil/baa. POC is Dr. T.R. Govindan, 919-549-4236 or tr.govindan@us.army.mil.
