mode (str)– The choice of mode, explained further above. ctrl_state (str |int | None)– The control state in decimal, or as a bitstring (e.g. ‘1’). Defaults to controlling on the ‘1’ state. Returns A handle to the instructions created. Raises ValueError –if the given mode ...
Simply explained, a quantum computer is a processor that uses the laws of quan-tum mechanics to perform calculations. It thus enables very precise simulations of smallest physical particles (e.g., atoms and molecules), as particularly in this field quantum mechanics is significant. A principle th...
experts contend. In a survey by Hyperion Research in partnership with D-Wave Quantum -- a provider of quantum systems, software and services -- 61% of respondents viewed quantum computing-based optimization as integral to improving the performance of key business processes, and ...
Every day, more and more researchers are using the IBM fleet of utility-scale quantum computers to explore problems at the very limits of classical computation, and it is becoming clear that quantum advantage may well be just around the corner. However, to cross that finish line, we must now...
about neck and neck quantum competition. And although IBM went all-out on quantum at this year's CES, it is still far from evident that the company will emerge as the winning research lab. "It is way too early to predict who will be leading the quantum computing race," said Hensinger...
In short, the method explained herein is based on an unknown quantum state lying in the neighborhood of a referenced state. The approach is very different from almost all known procedures for providing a measure of goodness for a NISQ computer. In particular, it is vastly different from the ...
Numerous labs, government agencies, universities and vendors around the world are developing quantum computing technology. The effort includes tech giants, such as Amazon, Google, IBM, Intel and Microsoft; various quantum startups; research universities, including Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Ha...
The announcement explains that quantum-safe cryptography support will allow the service’s users to “prepare for future threats that could evolve with advances in quantum computing.“ IBM Cloud vice president and chief technology officer Hillery Hunter explained the importance of preparing for ...
What the hell is quantum computing? As it was explained in very plain words to me, we can imagine quantum computing as a process where calculations don’t follow each other as in regular computing but take place all at the same time. A quantum computer is able to run all the calculations...
(employs superconducting qubits), Google, IBM, Alibaba, IBM, Google, IonQ (which customs solid ion qubits), Xanadu (which develops photonic quantum computing), and Microsoft (which uses topological qubits) are the major companies producing consumer (military) quantum computers. The quantum domain ...
