Applications and Principles of Quantum Computing

Guixi Wu

Contemporarily, the classical computing has met the upper limitations of Moore’s law due to the restrictions of the resolution for light sourcing and material. On this basis, the quantum computing has been rapidly developed due to the advantages of parallel computation, which is able to be faster more than 3 orders of magnitude than conventional computer in some issues. With this in mind, this study discusses the basic principles of quantum computing as well as the corresponding state-of-art applications. To be specific, the developing history of the quantum computing is briefly introduced. Subsequently, the entanglement principle will be demonstrated accordingly. Afterwards, three types of the state-of-art quantum computing facilities will be demonstrated. Then, some of the applications and common algorithms will be discussed simultaneously. According to the analysis, the limitations and defects of current investigation of quantum computing will be illustrated. In conclusion, these outcomes provided guideline for further exploration of quantum computing.

Abstract Quantum computing promises to be the next disruptive technology, with numerous possible applications and implications for organizations and markets. Quantum computers exploit principles of quantum mechanics, such as superposition and entanglement, to represent data and perform operations on them. Both of these principles enable quantum computers to solve very specific, complex problems significantly faster than standard computers. Against this backdrop, this fundamental gives a brief overview of the three layers of a quantum computer: hardware, system software, and application layer. Furthermore, we introduce potential application areas of quantum computing and possible research directions for the field of information systems.

Quantum computing represents a new paradigm in computation that exploits the principles of quantum mechanics to solve complex problems beyond the practical capabilities of classical computers. By utilizing qubits, superposition, entanglement, and quantum interference, quantum computers have the potential to revolutionize cryptography, optimization, drug discovery, artificial intelligence, financial modeling, and materials science. Although remarkable progress has been achieved in quantum hardware and algorithms, significant challenges remain, including qubit stability, error correction, scalability, high implementation costs, and limited practical applications. This paper presents the fundamental principles of quantum computing, explores its major applications, examines current limitations, and discusses future research directions.
