Summary
This was followed by the Dynamic Resource Allocation project, which expanded the company’s work into industrial environments affected by disruptions and uncertainty. In this project, Quantumz.io Sp. z o.o. developed the XaosQ system for dynamic resource allocation and rescheduling, combining physically inspired algorithms (including quantum methods), stochastic disruption models, and schedule stability metrics.
This trajectory is explored further by developing a hybrid classical-quantum optimization system based on physical algorithms and chaotic quantum annealing, including a new optimization algorithm, intelligent solver and parameter selection modules (QUBO/Ising), and a prototype service platform for large-scale optimization challenges in logistics, manufacturing, energy, finance, and smart city applications.
In terms of EU grant funding, Quantumz.io Sp. z o.o. received PLN 5,722,716.35 for VeloxQ, PLN 11,728,260.00 for the Dynamic Resource Allocation / XaosQ project, and PLN 7,971,927.00 for the latest chaotic quantum annealing project. Together, these projects secured a total of PLN 25,422,903.35 in EU co-funding, with a combined project value of PLN 35,704,059.75. This demonstrates a strong and sustained strategy of using European funding to build proprietary hybrid optimization technologies, strengthen in-house research capabilities, and commercialize advanced optimization services for industry.

PROJECT SUBJECT
Quantumz.io Limited Liability Company is implementing a project entitled “Dynamic Resource Allocation in Industrial Ecosystems Prone to Disruptions Using Physically-Inspired Algorithms and Machine Learning,” co-financed by the European Union funds within the European Funds for a Modern Economy Program. The subject of the project is the development of the XaosQ information system for managing dynamic resource allocation in an environment susceptible to disturbances. For this purpose, physically-inspired algorithms, including quantum algorithms, and methods from the field of machine learning will be utilized. A stochastic model of disturbances occurring in the process of dynamic resource allocation and a scheduling model generating stable solutions will be developed.
Research
STAGE 1
Stochastic Model of Disturbances
Construction and simulations of a stochastic model of disturbances occurring in the process of dynamic resource allocation.
STAGE 2
Costs of Stability
Determining the measure of costs of (in)stability of the schedule.
STAGE 3
Scheduling Model
Development of a scheduling model that generates solutions stable with respect to stability measures.
STAGE 4
Rescheduling Algorithm
Development of an algorithm that enables dynamic resource allocation (rescheduling) considering cost functions along with preliminary implementation.
STAGE 5
HPC Implementation
Implementation of algorithms from previous stages utilizing HPC resources in the form of a prototype solution.
Project Objective
The objective of the project is to develop an innovative tool for optimizing resource management and scheduling in situations of dynamic changes and disruptions. By using hybrid approaches that combine classical and quantum technologies, the algorithm will enable companies in these industries to quickly and efficiently respond to disturbances, minimizing their impact on schedules and reducing the cascading effect. The target group for the project’s results is the aviation industry (aircraft scheduling problem; ASP) and the transportation industry (vehicle routing problem; VRP).
Project Outcome
The result of the project will be a new innovative service, XaosQ – dynamic resource allocation in industrial ecosystems prone to disturbances, which will change the way companies handle disruptions, contributing to the transformation of the target market. The introduction of the service to the market will contribute to competitive advantage and market value growth, accelerating the transformation towards the use of advanced computing technologies and preparing the sector for the era of quantum computing. XaosQ will become a key element in the future management of resources, logistics, and digital security, influencing the acceleration of the transformation of the target market.
