Mphasis Limited (NSE: MPHASIS), a global AI-led technology solutions provider, in partnership with Copa Airlines, recently hosted a Quantum Computing Challenge, an international innovation contest. The challenge brought together teams from various Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) in India and universities in Canada to solve a real-world airline optimization problem using next-generation quantum computing.

Objective and Scope

The challenge focused on disruption management by addressing the passenger re-accommodation problem, a critical airline process involving reassignment of passengers to alternate flights during schedule disruptions due to demand shift, seasonal routes, or cancellations. Traditionally solved through well-established mathematical optimization techniques on high-performance classical computing systems, the problem was reimagined and resolved in this challenge using quantum computing with the focus on improving the speed and accuracy at scale.

Competition Details

The competition was conducted in two phases. Phase 1 included 22 IIT teams evaluated jointly by Mphasis experts and IIT-Madras faculty, from which six teams were selected. In Phase 2, these six teams competed with three teams from the University of Calgary and the University of Lethbridge using real Copa Airlines data and quantum infrastructure provided by Classiq, Multiverse computing, and qBraid.

Participants developed end-to-end solution pipelines, including identification of impacted flight segments and passengers, passenger scoring and prioritization based on Customer Value Management (CVM) data, ranking of alternate flight options, and optimal reassignment of passengers using quantum and classical optimization techniques. Mphasis, with IIT-Madras and Quantum City, shortlisted three solutions for presentation to Copa Airlines leadership.

The winning teams will receive a cash prize and a joint certificate from Copa Airlines and Mphasis. This initiative reflects Mphasis’ commitment to applied innovation and advancements in quantum technologies, showcasing how quantum optimization can improve efficiency and decision-making in airline operations.
