Researchers from the University of Queensland have taken a significant step in the quest to build a quantum computer, creating a light-based quantum circuit capable of basic calculations and moving quantum computing closer to a becoming a reality.
Australian researchers have taken another step towards quantum computers -- computers which use sub-atomic particles to minimise transistors' size and maximise computing power.
A Google scientist will join a controversial demonstration of a claimed quantum computer on Monday but scientists doubt the validity of the system being shown.
In a true sci-fi moment, two teams of scientists stop and trap light - a feat that could lead to major advances in quantum computing.
It's not Star Trek, but quantum computing looks set to revolutionise the way we do computing.
Post-election adrenaline surging through his veins, one of the first acts performed by new Communications Minister Stephen Conroy was to disband the expert panel that his predecessor Helen Coonan had appointed last June to evaluate tenders for fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) construction.
Discover the future of computing beyond Moore's Law. Will we have to change our entire approach to software and hardware design?
Hewlett-Packard researchers will unveil a major breakthrough in the field of nanotechnology, a milestone in the company's goal to build chips based on "molecular grids".
Carbon. Is there nothing it can't do? As well as being the fundamental element behind life, the premium component in energy storage and the top contender for executioner of the human race, it's now beginning to fill in the forms for consideration as inheritor to silicon's electronic crown.
The average datacentre lasts between 15 and 20 years, so when the current generation of datacentres near the end of their working life, will their replacements be at all familiar?
In the 60 years since its invention, the transistor has shrunk from hulking origins to the point where more than six billion can fit in an area the size of a credit card. Follow the history of the transistor from its humble origins in Bell Labs to its possible quantum future.
It's not Star Trek, but quantum computing looks set to revolutionise the way we do computing.
Discover the future of computing beyond Moore's Law. Will we have to change our entire approach to software and hardware design?
Canadian scientists say they have invented a spintronic transistor, which uses the spin of electrons to store information. It could mark an important step in quantum computing.
As interest in nanotechnology peaks, scientists are claiming a significant breakthrough with the ability to make atoms move one by one.
