Mphasis and Copa Airlines Seek Quantum Boost to Airline Efficiency

Quantum Zeitgeist5 min read

Mphasis and Copa Airlines hosted a Quantum Computing Challenge, an international innovation contest, bringing together teams from Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and the University of Calgary, and the University of Lethbridge. The challenge focused on using next-generation quantum computing to solve a real-world airline optimization problem, specifically passenger re-accommodation during schedule disruptions.

Copa Airlines and Mphasis recently invited teams from Indian Institutes of Technology and the University of Calgary to tackle a precise challenge: optimizing passenger re-accommodation during flight disruptions, the company says. The international competition focused on improving the passenger re-accommodation rate without impacting the solution runtime, areas where current methods fall short. Participants used quantum computing to address a problem stemming from demand shifts, seasonal routes, or cancellations, working with real Copa Airlines data. “The Quantum Computing Challenge reflects Mphasis’ commitment to applied innovation and advancements in quantum technologies,” said Srikumar Ramanathan, Chief Solutions Officer at Mphasis, as industries seek to deploy quantum computing…
