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 ...

When running a server, especially one with mission-critical applications, it’s common practice to use error-correcting code (ECC ... decided to upgrade their computer anyway, but there were ...

To circumvent this difficulty, Markus Müller's research group has established a method that allows the quantum computer to switch back and forth between two correction codes in an error-tolerant ...

Researchers have demonstrated a quantum error correcting code. The work brings quantum computing a step closer. The journal Nature Photonics recently published an ...

It doesn’t matter how many signal relay towers blanket your city, the quality of your wireless reception can often change drastically—sometimes within a few steps. But MIT researchers think ...

Far more efficient quantum error-correcting codes are needed to cope with the ... just as a logical qubit in a quantum computer is reproducible from many different subsets of physical qubits.
