Last month I showed how coding and error correction allows next-generation broadcast technologies such as DVB-T2 and DVB-NGH to achieve performance very close to the ...

For quantum computers to go from research curiosities to practically useful devices, researchers need to get their errors under control. New research from Microsoft and Quantinuum has now taken a ...

If you’ve ever sent a text message, played a CD, or stored a file in the cloud, you’ve benefited from error correction. This revolutionary idea dates back to the ...

Researchers at Google Quantum AI and collaborators have developed a quantum processor with error rates that get progressively smaller as the number of quantum bits ...

Quantum computers are largely theoretical devices that could perform some computations exponentially faster than conventional computers can. Crucial to most designs ...

The fragile qubits that make up quantum computers offer a powerful computational tool, yet also present a conundrum: How can engineers create practical, workable quantum systems out of bits that are ...
