Quantum computing is moving from physics labs into real hardware, promising to attack problems that overwhelm even the fastest supercomputers. Among the boldest claims is that these machines could ...

Like their conventional counterparts, quantum computers can also break down. They can sometimes lose the atoms they manipulate to function, which can stop calculations dead in their tracks. But ...

"We are laying critical groundwork to enable quantum computers with more than 100,000 qubits," Will said. In a paper published in Nature, Will, Yu, and their colleagues combine two powerful ...

Designed to accelerate advances in medicine and other fields, the tech giant’s quantum algorithm runs 13,000 times as fast as software written for a traditional supercomputer. A quantum computer at ...

Physicist Jay Gambetta, at IBM’s lab in Yorktown Heights, New York, explains how microwaves orchestrate a solution on a quantum chip: “Think of each qubit as a line in music. You’re creating notes.” ...

Quantinuum has unveiled a third-generation quantum computer that could be easier to scale up than rival approaches. The US- and UK-based company Quantinuum today unveiled Helios, its third-generation ...

London-based Quantum Motion Technologies Ltd. announced today it has delivered the industry’s first quantum computer built using traditional semiconductor chipmaking processes, the same technology ...

For quantum computers to change the game of computation, scientists need to show that the machines’ calculations are correct. Now, there’s hope. Google’s Willow quantum chip has achieved verifiable ...

Software firm Horizon Quantum claimed it is the first private company to deploy a commercial quantum computer in Singapore. The deployment also makes it the first quantum software company to deploy ...

Scientists have built a 98-qubit machine that they say performs better than any other quantum computer in the world. They've used it to gain new insights into superconducting physics. When you ...

The latest trends in software development from the Computer Weekly Application Developer Network. Sometimes classed as a Japanese startup, OptQC works with optical photonic technologies to develop a ...
