The field of quantum computation has made rapid progress just in the last few years. In 2016, IBM put the first quantum computer on the cloud, expanding the reach of the technology beyond research ...

At this nascent stage of quantum computing, each of the limited hardware/device makers have their own software stacks. As the ecosystem evolves and early use cases prove out, there might be a more ...

As the rubber begins to meet the road for quantum computing, the conversation is shifting from one about the practicality of hardware to how future users will interface with quantum systems. We have ...

In the early 2000s, high-performance computing experts repurposed GPUs -- common video game console components used to speed up image rendering and other time-consuming tasks -- as co-processors that ...

Developers can now be officially quantum-certified. IBM has unveiled a quantum developer certification which it says, once devs have passed the 60-question test, will act as proof of at least some of ...

Outside the crop of construction cranes that now dot Vancouver’s bright, downtown greenways, in a suburban business park that reminds you more of dentists and tax preparers, is a small office building ...

Several technical advances have been achieved recently in the pursuit of powerful quantum computers. Now, Computer scientists have made an important breakthrough in the field of programming languages: ...

I recently attended a virtual conference on processors that was dominated by companies building AI chips. At last count there are well over 200 companies, research labs, and universities working on AI ...

At its Ignite conference today, Microsoft announced its moves to embrace the next big thing in computing: quantum computing. Later this year, Microsoft will release a new quantum computing programming ...

The world is about to have its first quantum computers. The complexity and power of quantum hardware, such as ion traps and superconducting qubits, are scaling up. Investment is flooding in: from ...
