Intel Corporation today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Classiq, a leading provider of quantum computing software. The combination of Classiq's synthesis platform with Intel's spin-qubit manufacturing and existing software would create a user-friendly full-stack quantum computing…
Quantum computing represents a fundamental shift in computation, promising to solve problems currently intractable for classical computers. However, misconceptions persist; quantum computers are not universally faster, nor do they replace classical systems. Current Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices face…
NVIDIA is expanding its family of open models across language, robotics, biology, and quantum computing, giving developers, researchers and enterprises what they need to build applications tailored to local languages and industries The portfolio includes the new NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super VL and Nemotron 3.5 Bolt…
Cloud-accessible quantum computing has made heterogeneous Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) available through provider platforms that differ in qubit technology, calibration state, queueing behavior, and pricing model. This heterogeneity makes execution management a quantum-engineering concern: a quantum circuit may be…
Distributing quantum circuits across a network of quantum devices is a recent approach to improve the scalability of quantum computation. Entangled pairs of qubits distributed across network nodes are used as a communication resource for executing inter-node (remote) gates. However, establishing these entanglement…
Emerging quantum networks enable distributed quantum computing (DQC) by interconnecting modest, noisy quantum processors. However, practical deployments face tight memory budgets, probabilistic entanglement generation, and decoherence, all while serving multiple users. In realistic settings -- cloud execution,…
Deploying quantum neural networks (QNNs) on sparse hardware requires preserving task accuracy while reducing compiler-induced two-qubit gates, SWAPs, and depth. We present ConQUESTA (\underline{C}onstrained \underline{Qu}antum \underline{E}ntangler \underline{S}election with \underline{T}opology…
Fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) introduces substantial systems-level complexity through quantum error correction (QEC), making debugging FTQC programs challenging. Existing quantum debugging approaches primarily target logical-level circuits and do not naturally support debugging within realistic FTQC…
Quantum computing promises new capabilities beyond classical computation. Mid-circuit measurements (MCMs) enable error correction and outcome-dependent control, but their reliability is limited by noise on superconducting hardware. These operations depend on accurate quantum state discrimination (QSD), which assigns…
Scaling fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) requires orchestrating millions of operations continuously across a tightly coupled classical-quantum control stack. A critical challenge in this orchestration is determining the optimal hardware-software boundary, i.e., the Quantum Instruction Set Architecture (QISA).…
A quantum computer can be an ungainly thing, because even the most elegant qubit-housing cryostat usually sprouts a thicket of control cables. Most qubits don’t work above a fraction of a degree above absolute zero, but the conventional electronics that control the qubits don’t work in the cryogenic cold. Hence…
Countries around the world are trying to find their place in a world of new and powerful quantum computing possibilities. China and the U.S. are investing tens of millions of U.S. dollars to build individual quantum computers for their national laboratories as part of a wider investment of tens of billions of dollars…
