IonQ Opens Door to Dramatically More Powerful Quantum Computers, Debuts Industry First: Reconfigurable Multicore Quantum Architecture
IonQ, Inc. (“IonQ”), the leader in quantum computing, August 25, 2021, unveiled the industry’s first Reconfigurable Multicore Quantum Architecture (RMQA) technology, a breakthrough in quantum computing. Starting with the demonstration of 4 chains of 16 ions each that can be dynamically configured into quantum computing cores, IonQ believes it has laid the foundation for increases to qubit count into the triple digits on a single chip, as well as future Parallel Multicore Quantum Processing Units.

UNSW Sydney: ‘Missing Jigsaw Piece’ is Key to Controlling Millions of Qubits
Rather ingenious control method. Claim is that they could control up to four million qubits “in principle”. None-the-less, this could be a truly breakthrough moment. Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit
Is Quantum Computing Too Distant to Prepare for Now?
This report keeps reality on the scope of quantum computing. There is not a commercially viable quantum computing platform, yet. There is a lot of hope and anticipation that a such a quantum computing system is just in the offing. That offing is beginning to feel as though it is continuously 5 years off. Worth […]
