Ebook: Quantum computing: where do we want to go tomorrow?

The subjects discussed in this book include both experimental and theoretical aspects on ion-trap quantum computers and other proposals for quantum information processing. It includes work on quantum error correction codes and their potential implications for vlarge' quantum computers. The optimal efficiency of Grover's algorithm is discussed here as well s cryptographic problems that are unsolvable even with a quantum computer. Other questions in the processing and representation of quantum information are studied.
