Researchers have developed a quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm for maximum power point tracking that reportedly generates 3.33% more power in higher temperature tests and 0.89% more ...

It’s been difficult to find important questions that quantum computers can answer faster than classical machines, but a new algorithm appears to do so for some critical optimization tasks.

Once a post-quantum replacement is named, Garfinkel warned, “There’s going to be this mad rush to sell new things to the government so the government can immediately adopt these new algorithms.

That assumption still underpins some critical protocols today. Shor’s algorithm showed that it would fail spectacularly in a world with powerful quantum computers. In the past 30 years, computer ...

In 2019, physicists at Google announced that they used a 53-qubit machine to achieve quantum supremacy, a symbolic milestone marking the point at which a quantum computer does something beyond the ...

For now, a basic processor can handle 50 qubits, a unit of quantum information. Some scientists estimate that a machine with the capacity to process thousands or millions of qubits will be needed ...

Birth Of The Quantum Threat Quantum’s threat to encryption began in 1994, when Bell Labs mathematician Peter Shor developed a quantum-based algorithm that could factor large prime numbers. When ...

The ML-KEM algorithm is somewhat similar to the kind of public-private encryption methods used today to establish a secure channel between two servers, for example. At its core, it uses a lattice ...
