Quantum computing is still in its infancy, easily beaten by traditional computers. One of the biggest challenges? The fact that quantum bits — qubits — are much more fragile than the bits in silicon ...

Modern network communications increasingly rely on sophisticated error correction techniques to maintain streaming performance and ensure reliable data delivery even ...

Quantum computing breakthroughs from IonQ, D-Wave, QuEra, Alice & Bob, and others in the last six months, with dates, achievements, and their impact on error-corrected, scalable quantum systems. May 7 ...

Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

There’s a strong consensus that tackling most useful problems with a quantum computer will require that the computer be capable of error correction. There is ...
