Japan – Tohoku University and NEC start joint research on computer systems using a newly developed 8-qubit quantum annealing machine
Tohoku University and NEC Corporation (TSE: 6701) have started joint research on computer systems using an 8-qubit quantum annealing machine developed by NEC and Japan’s new windowNational Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST). The 8-qubit quantum annealing machine used in this research has been newly developed using superconducting technology paired with ParityQC Architecture(1). Owing to this, the machine is resistant to noise and remains capable of scaling up to a fully-connected quantum annealing architecture while maintaining a prolonged quantum superposition state. This is the first domestically manufactured quantum annealing machine in Japan that is accessible from the outside ... Read more
