Taming a new computing technology...
An IBM researcher working on an advanced quantum computer.
The race is on to build the world's first meaningful quantum computer -- one that can deliver the technology's long-promised ability to help scientists do things like develop miraculous new materials, encrypt data with near-perfect security and accurately predict how Earth's climate will change, Larry Greenemeir reports on scientificamerican.com.
Such a machine is likely more than a decade away, but IBM, Microsoft, Google, Intel and other tech heavyweights breathlessly tout each tiny, incremental step along the way, Greenemeir wrote.
