China Intends to Exceed 300 Exaflops Aggregate Compute Power by 2025

The People’s Republic of China, so cagy in recent years regarding its leadership-class supercomputing resources, on Sunday declared its intent to exceed 300 exaflops of aggregate computing power within two years, a 50 percent increase over its current stated capacity of 200 exaflops. This in the face of tightening sanctions imposed by the U.S. on the export of….

AD Little on Quantum: 4 Myths and 5 Ways to Get Started

Quantum systems will potentially be exponentially more powerful than other forms of computing. That’s a good thing, of course, but it’s also true that quantum is proportionately more complicated than other technologies, making reading and talking about it more difficult by orders of magnitude. That’s why a new paper from Arthur D. Little comes as a breath of fresh air….
