It Works! Google's Quantum Computer is '100 Million Times Faster' than a PC
Dec 09, 2015
Announcing the results of its experiment, Google says Quantum Computer is More than 100 Million times faster than a regular PC. Two years ago, Google and NASA ( National Aeronautics and Space Administration ) bought a D-Wave 2X quantum computer , which they have been experimenting at the U.S. space agency's Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California for the past two years. The goal is to create a better way to solve highly complex problems in seconds rather than years.

What is Quantum Computers? Quantum computers can theoretically be so much faster because they take advantage of quantum mechanics. While tradition...
