A quantum computer is assembled by six engineering trades, only one of which is quantum physics. Here is what each of them does, and…
A QPU next to a supercomputer is a demonstration. A QPU inside the job queue is a resource. Here is what sits between the…
Shots, tasks, queues, transpilation and reserved time. A walk through the full access path from credentials to returned counts, with a worked shot budget.
A quantum processor reached over a network behaves unlike any accelerator you have integrated before. Four placement patterns, and the arithmetic that picks between…
Open architecture turned the quantum computer into a set of parts. Someone still has to assemble them and connect the result to the infrastructure…
Threat assessments still track one qubit count on one processor. The machine that matters for cryptography looks more like a data center than a…
