When quantum computers become commonplace, current cryptographic systems will become obsolete. Scientists are racing to get ...
Conventional quantum algorithms are not feasible for solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) with constraints in the operation time of quantum computers. To address this issue, researchers ...
In 1994, a mathematician figured out how to make a quantum computer do something that no ordinary classical computer could. The work revealed that, in principle, a machine based on the rules of ...
that's what I figured. Even with a brute force approach, programming can be more involving. A cursory glance tells me that more than 2/3s are wrong.
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 ...
