Quantum computing is still in its infancy, easily beaten by traditional computers. One of the biggest challenges? The fact that quantum bits — qubits — are much more fragile than the bits in silicon ...

A new review examines how insertion and deletion (indel) errors disrupt data synchronization in modern communication systems.

Quantum computers are no longer a physics challenge but an engineering one, and quantum error correction is the heart of what ...

For the first time, a quantum computer has improved its results by repeatedly fixing its own mistakes midcalculation with a technique called quantum error correction ...

Quantum computers are a little like librarians: both abhor noise. Compared with their classical counterparts, quantum computers are finicky and need a serene environment to perform their calculations ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have succeeded, for the first time, in quickly and continuously correcting errors in digital quantum systems. This means they have overcome an important hurdle on the road to ...

There’s widespread agreement that most useful quantum computing will have to wait for the development of error-corrected qubits. Error correction involves ...

Quantum bits are fussy and fragile. Useful quantum computers will need to use an error-correction technique like the one that was recently demonstrated on a real machine. In 1994, Peter Shor, a ...
