Quantum computing for computer architects [electronic resource] / Tzvetan S. Metodi and Frederic T. Chong.

Quantum computation may seem to be a topic for science fiction, but small quantum computers have existed for several years and larger machines are on the drawing table. These efforts have been fueled by a tantalizing property: while conventional computers employ a binary representation that allows c...
