- Nov 191:15 PMQuantum Computing and CommunicationUnlike today's "classical" computers that use electrical signals to represent ones or zeroes, quantum computers employ subatomic particles called qubits. When managed properly, qubits can represent combinations of both ones and zeroes simultaneously in the mysterious world of quantum mechanics. "In some cases, computers with these quantum abilities can solve large-scale problems much faster than their classical counterparts can. Examples include simulating the behavior of matter, analyzing compounds to create new drugs, optimizing factory floors or global supply chains, and identifying fraud ad risk patterns in financial transactions" (MIT website), and cracking the most secure passwords such as those currently used for international bank transactions, even though classical computers operate faster (thus better at solving "smaller" problems). Our discussion will cut through the hype.Walter Krawec, Computing Department, UConn
