DARPA has selected Atom Computing, Diraq, IBM, and IonQ for Stage C of its Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI) to verify the performance of their fault-tolerant quantum computing architectures. This stage involves direct physical testing and empirical validation of their hardware, aiming to assess their potential for utility-scale operation by 2033.…
Cisco's Outshift division has launched the Quantum Network Controller and Network-Aware Quantum Compiler v0.2.0 to manage multi-node quantum networks. The Controller offers Entanglement-as-a-Service, enabling on-demand entanglement across diverse quantum hardware. The Compiler integrates circuit compilation, qubit partitioning, and distributed quantum error correction, optimizing for physical network limitations.
QuantumCT has opened its 4,500-square-foot innovation headquarters in New Haven, serving as a central hub for quantum computing research, talent development, and startup incubation. This initiative, backed by significant public and private funding, aims to establish Connecticut as a leading U.S. quantum commercialization center. Key funding includes a $50.5 million…
