For the second half of the lecture course, students will be giving
presentations on the various real implementations of Quantum Information Processing
that are being researched at the current time. Students are encouraged to assess the potential
of the implementation for real quantum computation in the future. Below is a list of the more advanced
implementations, along with some useful references. Students are free to suggest a topic
that interests them that is not on the list.
