These new Quantum-based systems will not replace Classical Information and Communications ones, but will be run in conjunction with them by enhancing them where Classical ones present critical weaknesses, such as the impossibility of simulating some biochemistry systems in the pharmaceutical systems, achieving nano-scale sense of physical magnitudes, solving some hard computing problems, or warranting secure communications that cannot be never deciphered by third parties.

Marine robots are seen as game changers for marine science, deep-sea and polar exploration, environmental monitoring, oceanographic research, but also shipping. They offer the potential of exploring the oceans at depths currently out of reach while remaining at sea for several months and continuously recording data and collecting samples.

The Summer Session of the ASCSA is an intensive introduction to Greece from antiquity through the modern period.
