ORNL researchers advance performance benchmark for quantum computers

Green Car Congress

Whereas traditional “bits” have a value of either 0 or 1, qubits are encoded with values of both 0 and 1, or any combination thereof, allowing for a vast number of possibilities for storing data. These benchmarks give us an idea of how future quantum systems will perform when tackling similar, though exponentially more complex, simulations.
