Prof. Daowen Qiu

Sun Yat-sen University, China

Daowen Qiu, Doctor of Science, finished a postdoctoral follow from Tsinghua University in August 2002, and then was associated with Sun Yat-sen University under the "Hundred Talents Program" in the same year. He has been appointed as a full professor of computer science and a supervisor of the doctoral students since 2004. Also, he has engaged in research on quantum computing and quantum information for more than 20 years, and focuses on quantum computing models, quantum query algorithms, distributed quantum algorithms, (fuzzy, probabilistic, and quantum) automata and discrete event systems. His research integrates classical and quantum computational processing, aiming to achieve better physical realizability with essentially superior to classical computation as well. He has published more than 200 academic papers in academic journals and conferences and one academic monograph on quantum automata. Currently, he serves as an editorial board member of Theoretical Computer Science, an associate editor of Frontiers in Computer Science, and an editorial board member of Quantum Reports.
