Quantum Computers – Boon or Bane?
Quantum computers can perform operations much more quickly and efficiently even with the use of less energy than conventional computers, but that’s bad news for encryption — a process which scrambles data according to a massively complex mathematical code.
In theory, quantum computers can break almost all the existing encryption algorithms used on the
China has taken one more step forward towards achieving success in Quantum communication technology.
China has launched the world’s first quantum communications satellite into orbit aboard a Long March-2D rocket earlier today in order to test the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics at space.
‘Hack-Proof’ Communications System
The satellite, dubbed Quantum Science Satellite, is designed
In Brief
What would you do if you get access to a Quantum Computer? IBM Scientists launches the world’s first cloud-based quantum computing technology, calling the IBM Quantum Experience, for anyone to use. It is an online simulator that lets anyone run algorithms and experiments on the company’s five-qubit quantum computer.
Quantum computers are expected to take the computing technology to
Announcing the results of its experiment, Google says Quantum Computer is More than 100 Million times faster than a regular PC.
Two years ago, Google and NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) bought a D-Wave 2X quantum computer, which they have been experimenting at the U.S. space agency’s Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California for the past two years.
