Description: Product InformationQuantum computing -- the application of quantum mechanics to information -- represents a fundamental break from classical information and promises to dramatically increase a computer's power. Many difficult problems, such as the factorization of large numbers, have so far resisted attack by classical computers yet are easily solved with quantum computers. If they become feasible, quantum computers will end standard practices such as RSA encryption.Most of the books or papers on quantum computing require (or assume) prior knowledge of certain areas such as linear algebra or quantum mechanics. The majority of the currently-available literature is hard to understand for the average computer enthusiast or interested layman. This text attempts to teach quantum computing from the ground up in an easily readable way, providing a comprehensive tutorial that includes all the necessary mathematics, computer science and physics.Product IdentifiersPublisherWorld ScientificISBN-109814412112ISBN-139789814412117eBay Product ID (ePID)117208658Product Key FeaturesFormatTrade PaperbackLanguageEnglishPublication Year2012Number of Pages300 PagesAdditional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberQa76.889AuthorRiley Tipton PerryCopyright Date2012TopicPhysics / Quantum Theory, Algebra / Linear, Physics / Mathematical & ComputationalDewey Decimal004.1Dewey Edition23IllustratedYesGenreScience, Mathematics
