A tour of the IBM Quantum Lab
Published on May 3, 2016
Quote:
Jerry Chow, an experimental quantum computing scientist at IBM, introduces viewers to the Quantum Lab at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center in New York. It is home to a five-qubit processor that represents the latest advancement in IBM’s quantum computing architecture. It can scale to larger quantum systems, and is the leading approach towards building a universal quantum computer.
As part of this pursuit, IBM is introducing a cloud-enabled quantum computing platform called the IBM Quantum Experience to let researchers and the scientific community experiment on a quantum processor to help discover new applications for this technology.
The IBM team has made a number of engineering advances represented in the five-qubit processor. Quantum information is very fragile and needs to be protected from any errors that can result from heat and electromagnetic radiation. The quantum processor’s superconducting qubits are cooled to 15 millikelvin, which is close to absolute zero Fahrenheit. Signals are sent in and out of the refrigerators to measure operations on the quantum processor.

IBM brings quantum computing to the cloud
Published on May 3, 2016

In its latest move to build a practical quantum computer, IBM Research for the first time ever is making quantum computing available in the cloud to anyone interested in hands-on access to the company’s advanced experimental quantum system.
The quantum computing platform called the IBM Quantum Experience will make it easier for researchers and the scientific community to accelerate innovations, and help discover new applications for this technology.
The race to build a universal quantum computer paves the way to solve challenges that are out of reach of today’s classical computers. IBM’s latest five-qubit processor is the beginning of the quantum age of computing. A universal quantum computer, once built, will represent one of the greatest milestones in the history of information technology. Inspired by nature and the laws of quantum mechanics, IBM believes quantum computing is the future of computing and has the potential to solve certain problems we couldn’t solve, and will never be able to solve, with today’s classical computers.

ABSTRACT
It is clear that in recent years quantum computing has moved from proof of principle demonstrations to emerging as a technology. This is an exciting time as theory, experiments, quantum software, and quantum hardware are merging into one and allowing the development of the first quantum stack. In this talk I will start by giving a (very) brief general overview of hardware we are building (superconducting qubits) and then focus on Qiskit . QISKit is an open source Python quantum software development kit we are developing for writing quantum computing experiments, programs, and applications. It allows the user to program and run quantum applications on real quantum hardware using the IBM Q experience and local or online simulators. I will outline a simple quantum “hello world” program and show how QISKit can be used to make complicated quantum states and run more advanced applications.
