Well, big news to computer geeks and physicists . . . and maybe a few computer scientists. Here’s the deal: According to a work published in Science and as reported by Hamish Johnston on physicsworld.com, physicists in California claim to be the first to implement a quantum version of the “Von Neumann” architecture found in personal computers. Based on superconducting circuits and integrated on a single chip, the new device has been used to perform two important quantum-computing algorithms. Conventional Von Neumann architecture includes a central processing unit (CPU) linked to a memory that holds both data and instructions.
See, that got your attention, didn’t it? I know you are on the edge of your seat, so click to read the rest of the story!
