Applied quantum computing refers to the practical use of quantum computing to solve real-world problems. Quantum computing is a rapidly advancing field of study that applies the principles of quantum mechanics to develop new computer technologies.
Unlike classical computers, which use bits to store and manipulate information, quantum computers use qubits, which can exist in multiple states simultaneously. This allows quantum computers to perform certain types of calculations much faster than classical computers, making them potentially useful for solving problems that are intractable for classical computers.
Applied quantum computing involves developing algorithms and software that can run on quantum computers to solve specific problems in fields such as cryptography, materials science, chemistry, finance, and logistics. It also involves building and optimizing quantum hardware, such as quantum processors, to improve the performance and scalability of quantum computing systems.
Some examples of applied quantum computing include using quantum computers to develop new materials with specific properties, optimize supply chain logistics, improve drug discovery, and break cryptographic codes.
