Spotlight on Military Uses of Quantum Computing

  Here, we will put the spotlight on a recent report rolled out by Congressional Research Service. And, in the report, the research committee highlighted that there are three applications of quantum technology that could be key to the military and DOD in particular (Department in Defense). Now, first, let us look at the key concepts of the term “Quantum Computing,” which is the fundamental building block of the larger field called “Quantum Technology.” Basics of Quantum Computing The first facet we need to learn about quantum computing is the fact that it is directly related to quantum physics. The development of this field of technology primarily depends on the evolution of research in quantum physics. Quantum computing would be very different from the traditional computation theory that has been going since Newton’s time. The main differential fact between traditional computational theory and the new theory of quantum computing is the use of something called “qubits.” In traditio...
