Is Quantum Computing the Answer to Future Data Center Innovation? Excerpts and salient points ~ • Speaking during a keynote address at this week’s Glue Conference 2019 event, Murray Thom, vice president of software and cloud services at D-Wave Systems, laid out ways that quantum […]
Stabilising quantum computers with ‘noise-cancelling headphones’ Excerpts and salient points ~ • Quantum entanglement is a delicate state that requires the particles used for computing, known as qubits, to be insulated from outside vibrations, electromagnetic waves, and kept at incredibly low temperatures… Interference not only […]
Reducing Monte Carlo Simulations to Near-real Time. IBM has revealed research results for quantum computing protocols processing Monte Carlo calculations. Typically, when using Monte Carlo simulations for financial portfolios on classical systems, the calculation and risk assessment computation may last for several days. According to the […]
Argonne National Laboratory: Reducing Quantum Noise. Many current quantum information applications suffer from decoherence. Decoherence is the loss of quantum information due to environmental noise inherent to quantum hardware. Magnetism, temperature fluctuations in and around the device, and electrical currents contribute greatest to this noise. […]
