A major breakthrough in quantum computing has just been achieved by American researchers at MIT. This innovation, dubbed the “quantum superhighway”, revolutionizes communication between quantum processors and opens up promising new prospects for the development of more powerful and efficient supercomputers.
Quantum computers today represent the cutting edge of computing technology, capable of solving problems far beyond the capabilities of conventional supercomputers. However, their efficiency depends on fast, precise communication between their various processors. This is precisely the challenge that American engineers have just met.
The innovation developed by the MIT team consists of an interconnection device enabling instant communication between quantum processors. Unlike traditional “point-to-point” link systems, which are prone to increasing errors during data transfer, this “quantum superhighway” promotes far more efficient “all-to-all” communication.
