Dalhousie research is taking a quantum leap into next-generation computing.The university has received $2 million from Lockheed Martin that will benefit the university's basic scientific research in an area of quantum computing, physics and material sciences.
The money, to be spread over four years, is part of the company's commitment to spend $242 million in Atlantic Canada as part of its industrial benefits obligation arising from the federal government's contract with Lockheed Martin to buy 17 C-130J Super Hercules aircraft.
