IEEE International Symposium onOpen Source Science (OSS 2023) The inaugural IEEE Symposium on Open Source Science (OSS) is a dedicated platform to showcasing the impact of open-source technology on scientific advancements. It brings together experts from academia, research, and industry to discuss how open-source software is helping drive discoveries and breakthroughs in various scientific fields, including cybersecurity, material sciences, climate and sustainability, healthcare and life sciences, etc. The symposium will feature a plenary panel at the IEEE SERVICES 2023, distinguished speeches, panels, an OSS Expo of live demos, and OSS Awardee presentations. The presentations and discussions from the creators of these open-source technologies provide attendees with a unique opportunity to learn about their experiences and challenges. Join us to explore the vital role of open source in driving scientific progress. The inaugural IEEE OSS Expo is open to all registrants of the IEEE SERVICES event. Authors of accepted papers are encouraged to provide on-site demos of their open-source data/software contributions at the Expo. The participants are welcome to share OSS-related career growth opportunities. Monetary sponsorship for the OSS Expo will be appreciated. The inaugural IEEE OSS Award builds upon the success of last year’s Open Software Services Award with a focus on contributions to scientific advancements. Effort made in cross-disciplinary collaboration will be appreciated in the evaluation process.

In this talk, we delve into specific examples of research made possible by Qiskit and explore its utility for developing an ecosystem of extensions. Additionally, we highlight the collaborative nature of the development community and its interaction with IBM Quantum, its main developer, emphasizing the values of openness and transparency. Join us to discover the transformative impact of Qiskit on quantum research and the dynamic community shaping its future.
