<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Georgia",serif">I would like to advertise the course CS 4900/5900 "Quantum Information Processing Systems" (class numbers 12498/12499). The only prerequisite is linear algebra & complex numbers
(a quick review will be provided), you do NOT need to know quantum mechanics. These are the topics we hope to cover in the course:
