Tensor networks enable researchers to tackle quantum physics problems previously thought to be solvable only by quantum computers. Credit: Lucy Reading-Ikkanda/Simons Foundation By applying a 1980s ...

Expand your knowledge of the full lifecycle of software development – from design and testing to deployment and maintenance – with a hands-on, 30-credit online Master of Science (MS) in Computer ...

Kharizmi helped solidify the concept of algorithms in mathematics and popularized algebra and the use of the zero.

Encryption systems rely on “random” numbers, but conventional computers can’t generate them perfectly. New research shows that quantum physics can.

With dozens of companies, from small startups to tech giants, pursuing quantum computing, there’s a steady flow of results as they try to find a path to utility. We typically focus on new technologies ...

Quantum is almost here, but organizations are not ready. Experts urge moving from 128-bit to 256-bit encryption ASAP. Another looming issue: quantum skills. Quantum computing is making our future ...

It’s a weird time to be studying computer science. Recent grads have a higher unemployment rate than those in just about every other major—yes, even philosophy. The internet is littered with rants ...

The US government has taken $2 billion worth of equity stakes in nine quantum computing companies, including one linked to the Trump family and another taken public by a current Pentagon official. IBM ...

This article is part of a package on the future of quantum computing. Read about the most promising applications of these machines here and see an illustrated field guide to qubits here. Inside a ...

The clock is ticking on Q-Day, the looming yet unknown date when quantum computing will have the capacity to quickly and easily break the encryption keys that keep most internet communication safe.

A new quantum-inspired algorithm has cracked a problem so massive that conventional supercomputers struggle to even approach it. Researchers used the method to simulate extraordinarily complex quantum ...
