Note publique d'information : A quantum computer is a computer based on a computational model which uses quantum
mechanics, which is a subfield of physics to study phenomena at the micro level. There
has been a growing interest on quantum computing in the 1990's, and some quantum computers
at the experimental level were recently implemented. Quantum computers enable super-speed
computation, and can solve some important problems whose solutions were regarded impossible
or intractable with traditional computers. This book provides a quick introduction
to quantum computing for readers who have no backgrounds of both theory of computation
and quantum mechanics. “Elements of Quantum Computing” presents the history, theories,
and engineering applications of quantum computing. The book is suitable to computer
scientists, physicist, and software engineers.
