Abstract

The main features of quantum computing are described in the framework of spin resonance methods. Stress is put on the fact that quantum computing is itself nothing but a reinterpretation (fruitful indeed) of well-known concepts. The role of the two basic operations, one-spin rotation and controlled-NOT gates, is analyzed, and some exercises are proposed.
