Other Ones and Zeros: quantum computing made probable
It would appear that one and zero are not enough. At the very least, their usual arrangement inside our classically designed computers is in for some serious revision. This November, the number of releases from researchers working on quantum computing spiked sharply. In all probability, it has more to do with scheduling and funding than the actions of some invisible force or supposed “hundredth monkey” effect. The theoretical work stretches back through decades into the dark recesses of cryptography and the woolier constructs of particle physics. It appears that the …
