An Introduction to Quantum Computing

Abstract:
Computers have changed the way we process information, communicate and do business. There is a continual drive towards faster and smaller processors allowing the solution of many scientific problems, greater breadth of communication and fuelling an industry that is worth hundreds of billions of euros. Quantum computing offers a completely new paradigm in computing, and although it will not be available soon, it is expected that the first quantum computers will be a reality sometime this century.
