Future applications of quantum computing
According to IBM, future applications of quantum computing may include:
Drug and Materials Discovery: Untangling the complexity of molecular and chemical interactions leading
to the discovery of new medicines and materials;
Supply Chain & Logistics: Finding the optimal path across global systems of systems for
ultra-efficient logistics and supply chains, such as optimizing fleet
operations for deliveries during the holiday season;
Financial Services: Finding new
ways to model financial data and isolating key global risk factors to make
better investments;
Artificial Intelligence: Making facets of artificial intelligence such as machine learning much
more powerful when data sets can be too big such as searching images or video,
etc.
Cloud Security: Making cloud
computing more secure by using the laws of quantum physics to enhance private
data safety.
