Google wants to take computing to warp speed and so what better way to do this than do exactly what they just did. Google has partnered with UC Santa Barbara researchers to develop quantum computing
The internet search company announced a new partnership with researchers at the University of California Santa Barbara to develop "quantum computing" technology.What is the science behind quantum computing? : This is a highly technical though still very theoretical. In simple terms, quantum computers make use of quantum bits, or qubits, to process information, as opposed to the binary system of ones and zeros used by traditional computer processors.
Scientists say qubits can behave like ones or zeros, or both. In theory, this should make quantum computers exponentially faster than digital computers that use a binary system to process information.
China is currently, China is home to the world's fastest computer, "The Tianhe-2" supercomputer, which is capable of nearly 55 quadrillion of calculations per second. After the development of quantum computer, 55 Quadrillion could look really snail.
The Partners have said they will form a "quantum artificial intelligence team," to lay the groundwork for quantum computing.
Before this, Google heard already been working with scientists at D-Wave Systems on a quantum computer system developing what some call the first commercially viable quantum computer, "The Vesuvius" Google is also working with NASA on a 1,000 qubit "Washington" processor.
