Quantum computing

Valerio Scarani • American Journal of Physics (1998)

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...

Functionally Accurate, Cooperative Distributed Systems

Victor Lesser, Daniel D. Corkill • IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics (1981)

A new approach for structuring distributed processing systems, called functionally accurate, cooperative (FA/C), is proposed. The approach differs from conventional ones in its emphasis on handling distribution-caused uncertainty and errors...
