Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve problems that overwhelm today’s most powerful supercomputers. Instead of ...

The quantum computing future is rapidly reshaping how scientists think about computation, with machines moving toward fault-tolerant systems capable of solving problems beyond classical limits. From ...

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed various computing tools that could help to solve challenges in quantum physics. These include large-scale deep neural networks that can be ...

With growing focus on the existential threat quantum computing poses to some of the most crucial and widely used forms of encryption, cryptography engineer Filippo Valsorda wants to make one thing ...

Quantum technologies like quantum computers are built from quantum materials. These types of materials exhibit quantum properties when exposed to the right conditions. Curiously, engineers can also ...

Overview Quantum systems evaluate countless supply chain variables simultaneously, helping organizations solve complex ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Building a utility-scale quantum computer that can crack one of the most vital cryptosystems—elliptic curves—doesn’t require nearly the resources anticipated just a year or two ago, two independently ...

Quantum computers powerful enough to break widely used public-key encryption aren’t here yet, but migration won’t be as simple as swapping in a new tool.

Researchers have developed a quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm for maximum power point tracking that reportedly generates 3.33% more power in higher temperature tests and 0.89% more power ...

All US federal agencies will have to complete their post-quantum cryptography transition by 2031, according to a new Trump ...

It's an aggressive move that'll effectively force operators of critical French infrastructure to move away from traditional cryptographic systems.
