Inside UNSW's quantum computing laboratory
Centre for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology is leading a global race to develop a quantum computer
Cyber security needs “rascals” not hand-raisers who won’t question authority. But the problem is that the education system is not typically geared towards generating the kind of rebellious spirits that the sector needs, according to UNSW professor of cyber security Richard Buckland.
They pause, bring their head up, and swing a leg back to shoot. They extend a foot, miss the ball completely and fall with a thud on the turf.
UNSW researchers have measured the accuracy of two qubit operations in silicon for the first time, giving fidelity results that "confirm the promise" of silicon as a viable and scalable platform for future quantum computers.
The collaborative spirit within the quantum computing research community is bearing fruit with joint research by scientists at UNSW and the University of Sydney which has “overcome a fundamental hurdle” in the field.
Back in the ’70s, researchers in the US Defence Department’s internetworking program needed to decide how much address space computers on “this Internet thing” were going to need.
