Emergent magnetic monopoles isolated using quantum-annealing computer
By Technical Paper Link - 27 Jul, 2021 - Comments: 0

Using D-Wave’s quantum-annealing computer, Los Alamos National Laboratory has shown that it’s possible to isolate magnetic monopoles. This research could one day enable future nanomagnets.   Abstract: "Artificial spin ices are frustrated spin systems that can be engineered, wherein fine tuning of geometry and topology has allowed the design and characterization of exotic eme... » read more

The Next Leap
By Ed Sperling - 14 Aug, 2020 - Comments: 0

Some interesting new technologies are about to go on display. Chipmakers and systems companies have been working on quantum computing, photonics, and specialized AI processors, for the past several years, and those efforts are beginning to gain momentum. The goal is no longer a doubling of performance and power. It's now orders of magnitude improvement, and next week's Hot Chips conference i... » read more

The Week In Review: Design/IoT
By Jesse Allen - 01 May, 2015 - Comments: 0

Tools Cadence released the new debug platform Indago, with the aim of reducing the time to identify bugs in a design by up to 50 percent compared to traditional signal- or transaction-level debug methods. Included are three debugging apps that provide an integrated debug solution for testbench, verification IP, and hardware/software debug for SoC designs. Mentor Graphics announced three n... » read more

How To Program A Quantum Computer
By Katherine Derbyshire - 28 Aug, 2014 - Comments: 5

Quantum computers have captured the attention of the computer science world because they are faster than classical computers for some problems. Spend any time reading about quantum computing technology, and you’ll see that statement over and over again. But what does it actually mean, given that classical computing is a mature, highly optimized technology and quantum computers are in their in... » read more

Not All Qubits Are Small
By Katherine Derbyshire - 30 Jun, 2014 - Comments: 1

While diamond nitrogen-vacancy centers offer one attractive implementation of quantum qubits, many other systems have been proposed. In theory, at least, any system with clearly identifiable quantum states can serve the purpose. The challenge lies in finding a system in which those states can be manipulated and measured by external forces and can be fabricated in large enough numbers for practi... » read more

Introduction To Quantum Computing
By Katherine Derbyshire - 28 Apr, 2014 - Comments: 2

Quantum computing has attracted a lot of attention lately. Recent revelations about the extent of the U.S. National Security Agency’s data collection programs, along with several large-scale corporate data breaches, have called attention to the need for secure communications. Quantum computing has potentially far-reaching implications for data security, both reducing the effectiveness of conv... » read more
