A new quantum-inspired algorithm is reshaping how scientists approach some of the most complex materials known, enabling ...

After 30 months of fast-paced innovation in quantum algorithms, six research groups are hoping to hit paydirt. But there can be only one big winner—if there is a winner at all. I’m standing in front ...

Quantum technologies like quantum computers are built from quantum materials. These types of materials exhibit quantum properties when exposed to the right conditions. Curiously, engineers can also ...

Quantum computing promises to reshape energy by enabling advanced simulations and accelerating materials discovery for carbon ...

When a quantum computer processes data, it must translate it into understandable quantum data. Algorithms that carry out this 'quantum compilation' typically optimize one target at a time. However, a ...

Quantum computers still can’t do much. Almost every time researchers have found something the high-tech machines should one day excel at, a classical algorithm comes along that can do it just as well ...

An international research team has developed a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on quantum computing for real-time maximum power point tracking (MPPT) implementation in PV systems.

Google claims to have developed a quantum computer algorithm that is 13,000 times faster than the most powerful supercomputers. This would bring the technology another step closer to real-world ...

What do cars, bridges and airplanes have in common? They are all exposed to the open air most of the time and are subjected to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Airplanes are particularly ...

Quantum computers—devices that process information using quantum mechanical effects—have long been expected to outperform classical systems on certain tasks. Over the past few decades, researchers ...
