Quantum Computing

Quantum computing’s distinct power exploits properties unavailable to classical computers. Once fully developed, quantum computers will be able to leverage those properties to efficiently solve scientific and technological problems that are impossible even for today’s most powerful supercomputers. Researchers are working to design hardware and software that will help make these advantages of quantum computing possible.
