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 ...

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

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 ...

IBM and collaborators say their quantum computers outperform all known classical algorithms for three distinct tasks, but ...

Quantum HPC co-location isn't necessary for most hybrid algorithms, a cross-lab study by AWS, NVIDIA, Lawrence Berkeley ...

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 ...
