IBM, the Technical University of Munich, and the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo, have presented proof of the theorized superiority of a quantum computing over classical computing.
Quantum computing, large-scale computing, machine learning, and big data analytics will be studied jointly by Canadian and German organizations now that a memorandum-of-understanding has been signed.
Canada’s Department of National Defence’s All Domain Situational Awareness S&T program is putting up a substantial financial investment to develop a stealth aircraft detecting radar using quantum physics. The anti-stealth quantum radar will alert of the approach of a stealth aircraft without giving the aircraft notice it has been detected. It is hoped the cutting edge system will help fill the coming radar station gap along Canada’s northern border expected circa 2025.
Signs are promising that quantum computing will get here. Potential military uses are numerous and growing as more minds take on quantum information science. How have the Five Eyes nations – U.S., Canada, Great Britain, New Zealand, Australia – tackled complex military issues in the past? Is now the right time to circle the wagons as has been done throughout modern history?
In the next ten years, the notion of quantum supremacy will have likely been attained, and further, quantum computing will have begun to crack data encryption of the prolific types in use today.
Canada, like Australia, the U.S., and well, China, is upping the ante in the quantum computing research business. Toronto-based firm Xanadu, has raised $9M to
