Publisher's Synopsis
The rapidly developing field of quantum computing and its potential to upend science, business, and society are examined in Bits to Qubits: The Quantum Transformation of Computing. This book provides a thorough and approachable overview of one of the most revolutionary technologies of the twenty-first century by bridging the gap between the classical underpinnings of computation and new quantum concepts.
The book starts by demystifying the basic components of quantum computing-qubits, superposition, entanglement, and quantum gates-for researchers, graduate students, engineers, and inquisitive readers. Next, it moves on to programming frameworks, real-world architectures, and innovative quantum algorithms like Grover's and Shor's. Applications in cryptography, optimization, machine learning, and materials science are covered along with practical concerns such as hardware problems, quantum cloud platforms, and quantum error correction.
This book offers a clear road map of where quantum computing is now and where it's going to go in the future, regardless of whether you're switching from classical computing or entering the field for the first time. It functions as a guide for the future as well as an academic reference thanks to its case studies, real-world examples, and straightforward mathematical explanations.
