The Department of Applied Informatics, chaired by Professor Ngoc Thanh Nguyen, is a part of the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology at the Wrocław University of Science and Technology. The Faculty of Information and Communication Technology (FICT) comprises 12 fields of study, nearly 4500 students, eight departments, 300 academic teachers, and more than 100 scientists. Our department employs ten professors, 27 assistant professors, ten assistants, and 11 Ph.D. students. We regularly co-organize two international scientific conferences: the Asian Conference on Intelligent Information and Database Systems (ACIIDS) and the International Conference on Computational Collective Intelligence (ICCCI).
Wrocław University of Science and Technology has launched the Center for Trusted Information and Telecommunications Systems, whose mission is to conduct advanced research in information and telecommunications technologies. The center will focus on areas such as quantum and mobile telecommunications, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity. Professor Ngoc Thanh Nguyen, head of the Department of Applied Computer Science, has joined the Center’s Council.
Future is here: Odra 5 – the first quantum computer in Poland
As a part of ICT Faculty we have been involved in this innovative project – the first quantum computer in Poland. The device is designed to work with leading quantum computing environments, including Qiskit, which utilizes the Python programming language. With the purchase and commissioning of the five-qubit machine, Wrocław University of Science and Technology also gains access to larger machines, including those with 20 or more 50 qubits, installed at the IQM company’s center in Alto, Finland.
