Design Automation of Quantum Computers

Rasit Topaloglu obtained his B.S. in EE from Bogazici University and Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from University of California at San Diego. He has worked for companies such as Qualcomm, AMD, GLOBALFOUNDRIES and has been with IBM for over a decade. As of 2022, he works on next-generation computer design as a Senior Hardware Developer. He was partially involved with qubit characterization laboratory work at IBM Research. He has over seventy peer-reviewed publications and over seventy issued patents, more than thirty of which are on quantum technologies. He serves on IEEE/ACM Design Automation Conference (DAC) and IEEE International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (ISQED) Technical Program Committees that cover quantum topics. He serves as the Chair of IEEE Mid-Hudson and the Secretary of ACM Poughkeepsie. He is an IEEE/ACM Design Automation Conference Outstanding Innovator and an IBM Master Inventor.
