Quantum computing as the name suggests, is an intersection field of quantum physics and computer science. In this article, I tried to explain the basics of quantum computing for non-majors to get a grasp of the foundation of how computational technology might look like in an almost foreseen future. Before going further into the topic it is essential to know what is a qubit. [Read more]

In 2018 one of my classmates gave a presentation about Quantum Computing at the University of Utah. I became familiar with quantum physics during my undergraduate program. Still, the presentation sounded very futuristic, and to be honest, somewhat fictitious. Because the computation advantages that were being claimed in that presentation were too good to be true and so it didn't really strike to me. Especially for someone like me, whose entire Ph.D. research is on reducing computation runtime for some specific optimization problems. [Read more]
