Algorithms using computers first rose to prominence in the mid-20th century, when the military began writing formulas for, say, determining where to aim a missile at a moving object.

Algorithms are the building blocks that, when layered together, form the cryptographic fortress that keeps out hackers. As quantum computers gain ascendancy, these bricks must change to keep our ...

Progress in algorithms makes small, noisy quantum computers viable Date: August 13, 2021 Source: DOE/Los Alamos National Laboratory Summary: Instead of waiting for fully mature quantum computers ...

A new algorithm that fast forwards simulations could bring greater use ability to current and near-term quantum computers, opening the way for applications to run past strict time limits that ...

Oct 02, 2023 One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving ...

It took Pan’s and co.'s computer 15 hours to solve the problem – considerably longer than Sycamores' 3.3 minutes, but a refutation of the idea it was effectively beyond classical machines.

The algorithm makes use of all the powerful features of quantum computers: entanglement, superpositions, and now continuous encoding.

Researchers at FIU’s College of Engineering and Computing have developed an encryption algorithm to defend videos from attackers with access to the world's most powerful computers. The encryption ...
