Quantum computers—devices that process information using quantum mechanical effects—have long been expected to outperform classical systems on certain tasks. Over the past few decades, researchers ...

When a quantum computer processes data, it must translate it into understandable quantum data. Algorithms that carry out this 'quantum compilation' typically optimize one target at a time. However, a ...

The reliable engineering of quantum states, particularly those involving several particles, is central to the development of various quantum technologies, including quantum computers, sensors and ...

Quantum HPC co-location isn't necessary for most hybrid algorithms, a cross-lab study by AWS, NVIDIA, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and NASA has found. Their Rcc metric shows most NISQ ...

MIT’s Peter Shor explains why he devised an algorithm for a quantum computer that could unravel our online data encryption Internet security relies on the fact that our computers can’t break its ...

There are many algorithms for which it has been mathematically proven that a quantum computer can generate results that would ...

A search problem refers to the task of finding a solution within some space of possible options, and that space could be made up of discrete steps or continuously varying values. For example, solving ...

Two recent scientific publications from the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Solid State Physics IAF shed light on how the concept of quantum advantage can be assessed more precisely and realistically ...

Paris, December 4, 2020 – Atos introduces "Q-score", the first universal quantum metrics, applicable to all programmable quantum processors. Atos' Q-score measures a quantum system's effectiveness at ...
