A team has realized a key milestone in the quest for stable, scalable quantum computing. For the first time, the team has created a programmable, logical quantum processor, capable of encoding up to ...

Arbitrary logical state preparation protocol. Top panel: The surface code is divided into 5 regions, the central data qubit, regions I, II, III, and IV. The logical operators Z ̂_L and X ̂_L intersect ...

The xCORE XS1-L4-64 integrates four 32-bit logical processor cores at a price that is comparable with competing single-core devices. The xCORE XS1-L4-64 integrates four 32-bit logical processor cores ...

Microsoft Thursday said the next upgrade of its Windows Server operating system will scale up to 256 logical processors. Microsoft defines a logical processor as the number of physical processors ...

The era of the big, muscular CPU is on the decline. The real trend is toward slicing and dicing cores virtually, one for each thread The current approach taken by x86 CPUs — to stuff as many processor ...

Just a week after Apple quietly upgraded their Mac Pro line to use 3.33Ghz quad-core Xeon CPUs comes our first good look at the processor that will likely drive the next significant refresh of the Mac ...

In quantum computing, a quantum bit or “qubit” is one unit of information, just like a binary bit in classical computing. For more than two decades, physicists and engineers have shown the world that ...
