Many engineering challenges come down to the same headache—too many knobs to turn and too few chances to test them. Whether tuning a power grid or designing a safer vehicle, each evaluation can be ...

Optimization problems can be tricky, but they make the world work better. These kinds of questions, which strive for the best way of doing something, are absolutely everywhere. Your phone’s GPS ...

Scientists have demonstrated a breakthrough application of neutral-atom quantum processors to solve problems of practical use. A collaboration between Harvard University with scientists at QuEra ...

Conventional quantum algorithms are not feasible for solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) with constraints in the operation time of quantum computers. To address this issue, researchers ...

Through the looking glass: In a field increasingly defined by quantum experiments and exotic materials, a physics team at Queen's University in Canada has shown that innovation can also come from the ...
