Description
Quantum computers are considered a key technology of the future. They do not follow the rules of classical logic, but the laws of quantum physics – and that is what makes them so powerful. Quantum computers open up completely new ways to solve especially complex problems from science and industry. And what long sounded like science fiction is rapidly taking shape: quantum computers are developing so quickly that in some areas they already compete with classical high-performance computers. Physicist Heike Riel provides an overview of the current state of the technology, the major breakthroughs, and the question of how close practical application really is. Dr. Dr. h. c. Heike Riel is an IBM Fellow, head of the Science and Technology department at IBM Research, director of IBM Research Quantum in Europe, and president of the German Physical Society (DPG).
