Material-Design Tools Taking On Quantum Monte Carlo Methods, Approximation of the Schrodinger Equation

A multi-institutional effort that includes researchers from Argonne, Lawrence Berkeley, and Oak Ridge National Laboratories is now underway to prepare QMCPACK for deployment on forthcoming, GPU-powered exascale machines, including the ALCF’s Aurora supercomputer. The greatly expanded computational power and parallelism of exascale will enable predictive capabilities far beyond the capacity of QMCPACK’s current implementation.

Measuring Your Quantum Computer’s Scale, Quality, and Speed IBM’s Way

Driving quantum performance: more qubits, higher Quantum Volume, and now a proper measure of speed Today, we propose a quantum metric we call Circuit Layer Operations Per Second, or CLOPS. Summary Quality, Speed, and Scale: three key attributes to measure the performance of near-term quantum computers In this arXiv pre-print, we prescribe a procedure for […]

Quantum Computers Could be the Undoing of One-Way Functions

Bye-bye hash functions? Could be, if a quantum computer is developed to suffciently execute the algorithms. Good read. Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit Revolutionary identity verification technique offers robust solution to hacking A team of computer scientists, including Claude Crépeau of McGill University and physicist colleagues from the University of Geneva, have developed an extremely […]

Classiq’s One Reason Why Quantum Computing is a Strategic Supply Chain Technology

QUANTUM COMPUTING AND THE SUEZ CANAL On March 23, 2021, the Ever Given container ship became wedged in the Suez Canal, blocking all maritime traffic. It remained stuck for six days until partially released. A day before its release, over 350 ships were waiting to pass through the Canal, delaying nearly $10B worth of cargo. […]
