Quantum computers promise enormous computational power, but the nature of quantum states makes computation and data ...

Universal Quantum is tackling the quantum computing frontier by engineering modular trapped-ion quantum systems designed to scale to millions of qubits, all within an industrially manufacturable ...

Twenty years ago, theoretical physicists and computer scientists were developing quantum algorithms for virtual quantum computers, with no working hardware in sight. Today, just about anyone can log ...

Rice computer scientists have developed algorithms that account for quantum noise that is not just random, but malicious ...

Quantum computers are designed to outperform standard computers by running quantum algorithms. Areas in which quantum algorithms can be applied include cryptography, search and optimisation ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward building large-scale quantum computers by successfully linking two separate quantum processors into a single, fully connected system. This breakthrough in ...

For problems suited to specific algorithms where quantum calculations offer advantages, that system would tap its quantum accelerator chip.

Quantum computers that were previously limited to theoretical physics now learn to discover patterns, optimize decisions and ...

The OCU group said, "This is the first example of practical quantum algorithms, which make quantum chemical calculations realizable on quantum computers equipped with a sizable number of qubits.

One of the ways that computers 'think' is by analyzing relationships within large sets of data. An international team has shown that quantum computers can do one such analysis faster than ...
