QCMobility: Quantum Computing & Mobility — •Matthias Zimmermann and the QCMobility-Team — Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. (DLR), Institute of Quantum Technologies, Ulm, Germany

This talk provides an overview of the project QCMobility [1] within the DLR Quantum Computing Initiative. Here, we explore application problems in mobility which might benefit from the usage of quantum computers. These include strategic and tactical planning processes in air transport, optimization problems in demand-driven traffic in road transport, planning and dispatching processes in rail transport, route and trajectory optimization in highly automated/autonomous systems in maritime transport, and optimization of multidimensional logistics networks in intermodal transport. In close collaboration with several contractors from industry and various DLR institutes, we aim at developing customized quantum algorithms and demonstration problems to implement them on quantum computing hardware. The project results will be incorporated into the Quantum Computing and Mobility application roadmap.
