Primer enlace cuantico seguro operativo entre sedes bancarias
El primer enlace cuantico seguro bancario operativo ha sido establecido entre dos sedes de la entidad rusa Sberbank, mediante un sistema desarrollado por el Russian Quantum Center. Los fisicos e ingenieros rusos comenzaron a trabajar en redes de comunicacion cuantica hace unos tres anos. La primera de esas redes se creo en la Universidad ITMO de San Petersburgo en 2014, donde los cientificos vincularon dos edificios universitarios a traves de un cable de fibra optica.

The Secret To Replacing Fossil Fuels
Last month, researchers from Russian ITMO University said they’d made a new solar cell coating, combining the features of an electrode with those of a light-trapping structure. This combination reduced the amount of reflected light and protected the cell from overheating, potentially improving its overall efficiency by as much as 20 percent.

Russia, India work on edtech cooperation
Russia’s Ministry of Education and Science is prioritising future cooperation with India on educational and digital programs, according to Alexander Sobolev, director of the Department of State policy in higher education, who spoke to the Indo-Asian News Service on a recent trip to India. It would not be the first time Russian and Indian HEIs have combined on technological progress. In 2016, ITMO University (St. Petersburg) worked with the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, on the Kumbh-Mela experiment on crowd behaviour modelling to improve crowd safety.

Russia keen to develop education programmes with India using modern digital technology
«ITMO University (in St. Petersburg) is the Russian leader in IT, providing training and research in advanced science, humanities, engineering and modern information technology, developing translational IT, which means applying the university's expertise in computer technologies, for example, to health care, urban and social studies, blending the culture of innovation in IT and discovery with world-class education», said Alexander Sobolev, Director of the Department of State Policy in Higher Education of the Ministry. In 2016-2017, ITMO University was assigned by Bengaluru's Indian Institute of Science to design a system that helps provide security at global mass gatherings using multi-agent modelling technologies. The mathematical model that can predict crowd behaviour was designed on the basis of the data collected at Kumbh Mela (this was the so-called Kumbh-Mela experiment), a study with the largest number of participants.
