Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Towards optimization of fusion-based quantum computing using quantum dots

Agreement Number:

1022507

Duration: from Sep 1, 2024 to Jan 30, 2027
Description:

Quantum computing offers exponential speed-up to some key computing problems. Photonic graph states are an important resource for the realization of quantum computing. A major challenge to photonic graph states is to work out an efficient algorithm for its generation. In this project, researchers will develop algorithms for such an optimization. Robustness to noise during the generation process will also be considered. The research may lead to a useful software tool that can perform such an optimization.
