  • Gilles Brassard was born in Montreal, Canada, in 1955. He received a Masters degree from the Université de Montréal in 1975, and obtained his Ph.D. in Computer Science from Cornell University in 1979, working in the field of cryptography with John Hopcroft as his advisor. He has been a faculty member of the Université de Montréal ever since, where he became Full Professor in 1988. Brassard is best known for his fundamental work in quantum cryptography, quantum teleportation, quantum entanglement distillation, pseudo-telepathy, and the classical simulation of quantum entanglement. Some of these concepts are still theoretical, but others have been implemented in the laboratory.In 1984, together with Charles H. Bennett, he invented the BB84 protocol for quantum cryptography. He later extended this work to include the Cascade error correction protocol, which performs efficient detection and correction of noise caused by eavesdropping on quantum cryptographic signals. (en)

  • Gilles Brassard nació en Montreal, Canadá, en 1955. Recibió su diploma de la Universidad de Montreal en 1975, y obtuvo su título en Ciencias de la computación de la Universidad de Cornell en 1979, trabajando en una agencia de cartografía junto a John Hopcroft como su supervisor. Ha sido un miembro de importantes facultades en la Universidad de Montreal hasta convertirse en profesor en 1988. Brassard es mejor conocido por su trabajo fundamental en criptografía cuántica, teleportación cuántica, entrelazamiento cuántico y la clásica simulación del entrelazamiento cuántico. Muchos de esos conceptos son todavía teóricos, pero otros han sido implementados en laboratorios. En 1984, junto con Charles H. Bennett, inventó el Protocolo BB84 para criptografía cuántica. Más tarde él extendió su trabajo para corregir el dado en llamar error cascada, un error en dicho protocolo, que consite en la eficiente detección y corrección de los ruidos causados por las deficiencias del mismo y sus signos.
