This diagram has time across the top and bit states along the side. It represents the legal bit patterns that can occur in the bit stream at specific times. Software can be used, instead of hardware, ...

Today's quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

Given three-bit corrections, for example, one could elect to use two of those bits for repairing errors and one bit for run-time reading noise. This creates some room for push and pull between the ...

Nord Quantique, a pioneer in the field of quantum error correction, today announces a first in applied physics. The company has successfully developed bosonic qubit ...

As with any electronic system, errors in the memory subsystem are possible due to design failures/defects or electrical noise in any one of the components. These errors are classified as either ...

Whenever we send data — whether it’s audio signals over a phone line, a data stream or a legal document — to someone else, we need to know that what arrives on the other end is identical to what we ...
