Quantum Computer

Industry players caution that it may take several years for this innovation to become commercially viable

Some scientists disputed the claim. In the years since, as traditional supercomputers grew more powerful, they matched the feats of Google's quantum computer

Google claims its new Willow chip completed a task in under 5 minutes, a calculation the fastest supercomputer would take 10 septillion years to perform

In a paper published in the journal Nature, Google said that it has found a way to string together the Willow chip's qubits so that error rates go down as the number of qubits goes up

Science and Technology Minister Jitendra Singh on Tuesday invited Israeli startups to collaborate with Indian firms on the National Quantum Mission. Singh made the offer to Israel's Industry and Economy Minister Nir Barkat who met him here. The two leaders discussed collaboration in startups in the space, quantum technology, agriculture and health sectors. Singh invited Israeli startups, known for their pioneering work in quantum computing, to partner with Indian institutions to co-develop critical quantum technologies. "India and Israel can supplement each other in this domain India with its large market, manpower, and opportunities, and Israel with its cutting-edge innovation," Singh said. India's National Quantum Mission aims to harness quantum technologies to bolster sectors like communication, cryptography, and computing, he said. Singh said Israeli startups and researchers could play a vital role in co-developing critical technologies, leveraging their experience for mutua

India must urgently develop a robust policy framework for the adoption of quantum technologies to build on the initial successes achieved by its startups

During PM Narendra Modi's recent Russia visit, Russian media reported that New Delhi and Moscow are in talks to construct six more high-powered nuclear power units, as well as small nuclear plants

Early planning is necessary, the U.S. cyber watchdog agency, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, said in a 2022 advisory

The Department of Telecom is working to establish a quantum certification lab and set standards for quantum computing, a senior official said on Thursday. While speaking at the Second International Quantum Communication Conclave, Telecom Secretary Neeraj Mittal said that a lot of work is happening in C-DoT on quantum communications, and India has to be cautious in developing the technology with like-minded parties. "We are working with TEC to create standards (for quantum computing). We are also working on setting up a quantum certification lab," Mittal said. He said that the certification lab will test and verify the solutions that claim to be based on quantum technology. "There are countries who have massive resources at hand but do not necessarily believe in democratic values as India. We need to find the right partners and work with them," Mittal said. The Cabinet approved the National Quantum Computing Mission on April 19, 2023, with an outlay of Rs 6,003.65 crore for 8 ...

"On the retail side, its technologies, how systems cope and how people behave are the focus areas. So we are not looking at volumes," Sankar said

The technology uses the principles of fundamental physics to solve complex problems in a range of sectors

Georges-Olivier Reymond, co-founder of Pasqal, spoke with Pranjal Sharma at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos about applying quantum computing

The establishment of quantum computing hubs would take place through public-private partnerships and focus on offering high-performance computing to startups and MSMEs

Machines vastly more powerful than today's fastest supercomputers would be capable of cracking the codes that protect virtually all modern communication, a Canadian cyber security firm has warned

Samsung Semiconductor India Research has collaborated with the Bengaluru-based Indian Institute of Science to help set up a Quantum Technology Lab. This is an effort towards Samsung Semiconductor India Research's (SSIR) Corporate Social Responsibility commitment and aims to provide research and training support opportunities to dozens of faculty members and hundreds of students pursuing higher education 'both in IISc and in other educational institutions', particularly in the fields of physics, engineering, computer science and mathematics every year, it said in a statement on Thursday. Led by Mayank Shrivastava, Associate Professor in the Department of Electronic Systems Engineering (DESE), the lab aims to be a pioneering facility dedicated to advanced quantum technologies,IR said. "The lab will serve as a centre for technological innovation, manpower training, and collaboration with national and international quantum research institutions," the statement said. "With a focus on ...
