Today is the era of noisy intermediate scale quantum (Nisq) computers. These can solve difficult problems, but they are said to be “noisy”, which means many physical qubits are required for every ...

Building on a landmark algorithm, researchers propose a way to make a smaller and more noise-tolerant quantum factoring circuit for cryptography. The most recent email you sent was likely encrypted ...

A new computing paradigm—thermodynamic computing—has entered the scene. Okay, okay, maybe it’s just probabilistic computing by a new name. They both use noise (such as that caused by thermal ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA — The most recent email you sent was likely encrypted using a tried-and-true method that relies on the idea that even the fastest computer would be unable to efficiently break a gigantic ...
