Tonon Leandro, Vice President of Global Technology at PronacaQuantum computing is a field of research that explores the use of quantum mechanical principles to perform computing tasks. Unlike classical computing, which relies on bits to represent information as 0s and 1s, quantum computing uses quantum bits, or qubits. Qubits can exist in multiple states simultaneously, a phenomenon called superposition, and can be entangled, meaning that the state of one qubit is associated with the state of another, regardless of the physical distance between them . The benefits of quantum computing are many and potentially groundbreaking.Exponential acceleration: One of the most…
