Abstract:
Quantum computers have arrived. How does their presence affect the evolution of legacy software? How can we improve the construction and testing of quantum software components? Let us explore some answers to these questions.

Dr. Andriy Miranskyy is an associate professor at the Department of Computer Science, Ryerson University. His research interests are in the area of mitigating risk in software engineering, focusing on large-scale software systems. Andriy received his Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics at the University of Western Ontario. He has 20+ years of software engineering experience in the information management and pharmaceutical industries. Before joining Ryerson, Andriy worked as a software developer in the IBM Information Management division at the IBM Toronto Software Laboratory; currently, he is the Faculty Fellow of the IBM Centre for Advanced Studies. He has served as a guest editor for several journals, as well as an organizer, committee member, and reviewer for several international software engineering workshops and conferences.
