Quantum computers—devices that process information using quantum mechanical effects—have long been expected to outperform ...

Quantum computers still can’t do much. Almost every time researchers have found something the high-tech machines should one day excel at, a classical algorithm comes along that can do it just as well ...

The IBM Institute for Business Value (IBV) has published a beautiful book, good to read and also a substantial addition to any executive office: the fourth edition of The Quantum Decade. The 168-page ...

Researchers from Google Quantum AI report that their quantum processor, Willow, ran an algorithm for a quantum computer that solved a complex physics problem thousands of times faster than the world's ...

Arxiv – A survey of applications and end-to-end complexities. (337 pages. Oct 2023) by Researchers at AWS Center for Quantum Computing, Institute for Quantum Information, RWTH Aachen University ...

Conventional quantum algorithms are not feasible for solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) with constraints in the operation time of quantum computers. To address this issue, researchers ...

Quantum computers won’t break the internet tomorrow… but they will break your email security sooner than you think. Today, cybercriminals and state-sponsored groups are quietly collecting encrypted ...

Peter Shor didn’t set out to break the internet. But an algorithm he developed in the mid-1990s threatened to do just that. In a landmark paper, Shor showed how a hypothetical computer that exploited ...

The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has finalized a set of encryption algorithms designed to withstand cyberattacks from quantum computers. These ...

The first post-quantum cryptographic algorithms were officially released today, with more to come from ongoing public-private sector collaborations. The first series of algorithms suited for ...

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 ...
