An Introduction to Quantum Computing and Its Applications
Mandeep Singh, Albert H. Carlson
Winning is much easier if you have an edge, whether that be better personnel, strategy, and/or technology. Quantum Information Science (QIS) - which includes quantum sensing, networking, communications, and computing - provides a technology that both tactical and strategic commanders will leverage to seize the initiative and create positions of advantage. Optimizing the exploitation of quantum technology will require that senior leaders understand enough about the technology and its fast-evolving applications to outmaneuver and outthink our adversaries. This does not require expertise in all facets of QIS, any more than a computer user needs to know computer design. This article attempts to be an introduction to quantum technology and some of its potential uses in the military operational environment.
