Advances in recent years suggest we are entering the Quantum Frontier Era. National security, science, economic ...

Google scientists have created a new algorithm that can solve problems on a quantum processor 13,000 times faster than the world's fastest supercomputers. They say it brings us one step closer to ...

In recent years, the prospect of real-world quantum computing has raised hopes for solving hard combinatorial optimisation problems, leading to tremendous theoretical work on developing and analysing ...

For years, the threat of quantum computing lived comfortably in the category of “interesting but distant,” but that comfort ...

After 30 months of fast-paced innovation in quantum algorithms, six research groups are hoping to hit paydirt. But there can be only one big winner—if there is a winner at all. I’m standing in front ...

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 ...
