Unconventional computingUnconventional computing is computing by any of a wide range of new or unusual methods. It is also known as alternative computing. The term unconventional computation was coined by Cristian S. Calude and John Casti and used at the First International Conference on Unconventional Models of Computation in 1998. The general theory of computation allows for a variety of models. Computing technology first developed using mechanical systems and then evolved into the use of electronic devices.
Informatique quantiqueL'informatique quantique est le sous-domaine de l'informatique qui traite des calculateurs quantiques et des associés. La notion s'oppose à celle d'informatique dite « classique » n'utilisant que des phénomènes de physique classique, notamment de l'électricité (exemple du transistor) ou de mécanique classique (exemple historique de la machine analytique). En effet, l'informatique quantique utilise également des phénomènes de la mécanique quantique, à savoir l'intrication quantique et la superposition.
ComputingComputing is any goal-oriented activity requiring, benefiting from, or creating computing machinery. It includes the study and experimentation of algorithmic processes, and development of both hardware and software. Computing has scientific, engineering, mathematical, technological and social aspects. Major computing disciplines include computer engineering, computer science, cybersecurity, data science, information systems, information technology, digital art and software engineering.
Linear optical quantum computingLinear optical quantum computing or linear optics quantum computation (LOQC) is a paradigm of quantum computation, allowing (under certain conditions, described below) universal quantum computation. LOQC uses photons as information carriers, mainly uses linear optical elements, or optical instruments (including reciprocal mirrors and waveplates) to process quantum information, and uses photon detectors and quantum memories to detect and store quantum information.
Nouvelles technologiesvignette|Nouvelles technologies - intelligence artificielle Les désignent des domaines très évolutifs et des techniques diverses, pouvant rendre plus accessible les rapports entre les humains et les machines : au sens large, toute la « haute technologie » ; au sens étroit, les nouvelles techniques de l'information et de la communication (TIC) (Internet, Smartphone, protocole Bluetooth...)..
High-level synthesisHigh-level synthesis (HLS), sometimes referred to as C synthesis, electronic system-level (ESL) synthesis, algorithmic synthesis, or behavioral synthesis, is an automated design process that takes an abstract behavioral specification of a digital system and finds a register-transfer level structure that realizes the given behavior. Synthesis begins with a high-level specification of the problem, where behavior is generally decoupled from low-level circuit mechanics such as clock-level timing.
Boîte quantiqueUne boîte quantique ou point quantique, aussi connu sous son appellation anglophone de quantum dot, est une nanostructure de semi-conducteurs. De par sa taille et ses caractéristiques, elle se comporte comme un puits de potentiel qui confine les électrons (et les trous) dans les trois dimensions de l'espace, dans une région d'une taille de l'ordre de la longueur d'onde des électrons (longueur d'onde de De Broglie), soit quelques dizaines de nanomètres dans un semi-conducteur.
Porte quantiqueEn informatique quantique, et plus précisément dans le modèle de de calcul, une porte quantique (ou porte logique quantique) est un circuit quantique élémentaire opérant sur un petit nombre de qubits. Les portes quantiques sont les briques de base des circuits quantiques, comme le sont les portes logiques classiques pour des circuits numériques classiques. Contrairement à de nombreuses portes logiques classiques, les portes logiques quantique sont « réversibles ».
Quantum networkQuantum networks form an important element of quantum computing and quantum communication systems. Quantum networks facilitate the transmission of information in the form of quantum bits, also called qubits, between physically separated quantum processors. A quantum processor is a small quantum computer being able to perform quantum logic gates on a certain number of qubits. Quantum networks work in a similar way to classical networks. The main difference is that quantum networking, like quantum computing, is better at solving certain problems, such as modeling quantum systems.
Quantum programmingQuantum programming is the process of designing or assembling sequences of instructions, called quantum circuits, using gates, switches, and operators to manipulate a quantum system for a desired outcome or results of a given experiment. Quantum circuit algorithms can be implemented on integrated circuits, conducted with instrumentation, or written in a programming language for use with a quantum computer or a quantum processor. With quantum processor based systems, quantum programming languages help express quantum algorithms using high-level constructs.
