Security News > 2020 > November > Quantum computing: A cheat sheet

TechRepublic's cheat sheet for quantum computing is positioned both as an easily digestible introduction to a new paradigm of computing, as well as a living guide that will be updated periodically to keep IT leaders informed on advances in the science and commercialization of quantum computing.

Who does quantum computing affect? Primarily researchers working in quantum physics, though advances in quantum computing are anticipated to influence other "Fuzzy logic" disciplines, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Which companies are leading the quantum computing race? AWS, Google, Honeywell, IBM, and Microsoft are developing quantum computing capabilities and services.

Smaller companies including 1QBit, D-Wave, IonQ, and Rigetti Computing are also working on quantum computing, including quantum devices and quantum services.

Google is developing quantum processors and algorithms to solve theoretical and practical problems-the focus areas are superconducting qubit processors, qubit meteorology, quantum simulation, quantum assisted optimization, and quantum neural networks.
