Breakthrough technology advancement solves the biggest problem in traceability — an unacceptably high error rate — ensuring ...

Computers employ a variety of schemes to check whether a chunk of digital information–transmitted as a message, stored in a database, or functioning as a set of instructions–remains error-free. Such ...

I, Brian Wang, interviewed Andrei Petrenko, Head of Product at Quantum Circuits and Neil Wu Becker, Head of Marketing for Quantum Circuits. Quantum Circuits presented at Q2B 2024 Silicon Valley at the ...

IBM scientists today unveiled two critical advances towards the realization of a practical quantum computer. For the first time, they showed the ability to detect and measure both kinds of quantum ...

Correction is not possible with one parity bit since any bit error in any position creates exactly the same information as bad parity. If more bits are integrated ...

Many types of error-correcting techniques exist, but in data communications, Hamming encoding probably finds the widest use. Unlike serial-port communications that use a single parity bit, Hamming ...

Scientists have for the first time demonstrated improvement in quantum computers by using codes designed to detect and discard errors in the logic gates of such machines. The codes were applied to IBM ...
