QuEST

Research program

QuEST Program Logo

Quantum Entanglement Science and Technology (QuEST) is a research program, announced by the DARPA Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) in 2008.[1][2] As a follow-on to the QuIST Program, its goal was to further accelerate development in the field of quantum information science.

Example areas under investigation included:[3][4][5][6]

* Shor's factoring algorithm,
* Quantum machine learning,
* Quantum game theory,
* Secure quantum communications,
* Quantum ghost imaging and interaction-free measurement, quantum image processing,
* Remote sensing, quantum radar and quantum metrology, e.g. entanglement-assisted gravitomagnetic interferometry.
