 B.C. firm's quantum computing claim questioned
A Vancouver-area company holding public demonstrations of what it claims as "the world's first quantum computer" has admitted it may be overstating the case in the face of questions raised by researchers.
The fundamental element of a traditional computer is a bit, which, like a switch, can only be in the on or off state at any given moment, or hold a value of either one or zero.
In contrast, the fundamental element of quantum computing, the quantum bit or "qubit," can exist in multiple states at the same time so every qubit is simultaneously on and off with a value of one and zero.

 IBM Research | Autonomic Computing | Research Focus
Over the past forty years the computer industry has been defined and driven by an obsession with faster, smaller, and more powerful.
The focus has been on raw processing power and the individual components that allow ever smaller and greater capacity to store, process and move data.
There are a number of immediate needs that require us to adjust our thinking and reinterpret our approach to computing in general, and specifically to the interaction between computer hardware, software and networks.
