About QuantumDB
Project Overview
The IAQI QuantumDB is a comprehensive database and web interface for tracking quantum computing conferences and their research contributions. Our goal is to provide a centralized, searchable repository of publications, authors, and committee members from the major quantum computing conferences. IAQI is the International Association for Quantum Information.
We currently track three premier annual conferences in quantum information science:
- QIP - Quantum Information Processing
- QCrypt - Annual Conference on Quantum Cryptography
- TQC - Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication and Cryptography
Report Errors or Issues
If you spot an error, missing information, or have suggestions for improving QuantumDB, please contact us at:
Common issues to report: incorrect author names, missing papers, wrong affiliations, or outdated committee information.
Technology
QuantumDB is vibe-coded with modern web technologies to ensure performance, reliability, and type safety:
- Backend: Rust with Axum web framework and Tokio async runtime
- Database: PostgreSQL with SQLx (compile-time verified queries)
- Frontend: Askama templates with Pico CSS and HTMX for interactivity
- API: RESTful API with OpenAPI/Swagger documentation
The project is open source and available on GitHub at https://github.com/IAQI/QuantumDB. Contributions, bug reports, and feature requests are welcome!
