Open Access QC Initiative Hopes For Public Global Ecosystem In Quantum Technologies by Mid Decade
Smaller groups are already supporting what the bigger university research initiatives are doing in the QC ecosystem Photo by Joshua Rawson-Harris on Unsplash Grassroots In one of my latest articles published in TQD, I covered the QC initiative at The University of Maryland called the Quantum Technology Center. Like others started by universities and places of […]
Calculating the benefits of exascale and quantum computers
A quintillion calculations a second. That’s one with 18 zeros after it. It’s the speed at which an exascale supercomputer will process information. The Department of Energy (DOE) is preparing for the first exascale computer to be deployed in 2021, according to a news release from the organization. Two more will follow soon after. Yet […]
Algorithm May Be Able to Predict Power of Early Quantum Computers
Quantum physicists at the University of Sussex have created an algorithm that speeds up the rate of calculations in the early quantum computers which are currently being developed. They have created a new way to route the ions – or charged atoms – around the quantum computer to boost the efficiency of the calculations. […]
The Nanotechnology Sector is set to Serve the Quantum Computing Industry. One Company, with its Blue-Chip Client Case, is Already There
Photo by mahdis mousavi on Unsplash The Rise of Nanotechnology There can be no doubt nanotechnology will be an area of technology that will grow in demand as the popularity of quantum computing (QC) rises. With several companies already on the scene such as Archer Materials from Australia leading the way, it is only a matter […]
The Quantum Technology Support Market Segment
The maturing of quantum technology is generating a number of potential opportunities for new companies, products and services. The support-market has burst on the scene and looks as if it will grow along the same lines as the primary technology through 2025. It is worth noting that given the variable characteristics of quantum technology, it […]

The state of Maryland is becoming a hotbed for research and industry in quantum information science. We now take a look at another initiative hoping to play its part in the revolution Photo by Alessandro Bianchi on Unsplash Big Cheese As with other stories about research institutes covered in TQD, we try our very best to […]
AWS Announces General Availability of Its Quantum Algorithm Design Service
Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com company, announced the general availability of Amazon Braket, a fully managed AWS service that provides a development environment to help customers explore and design quantum algorithms. Customers can use Amazon Braket to test and troubleshoot quantum algorithms on simulated quantum computers running on computing resources in AWS to help them […]
TQD Exclusive: CQC CEO Ilyas Khan Says Research, a Deep Scientific Bench of World Class Talent, and Product Focus Drive Firm’s Mission to ‘Get the Very Best Out of Quantum Computers Today And in the Future”
Technology centers tend to latch onto geographic labels — Silicon Valley, the Silicon Fen, Research Triangle, etc. — but companies that make their home in those centers don’t draw from geographic or topographical features, but from the creativity, talent and intelligence of the people who live and work in those ecosystems. It’s no surprise, then, […]
