Everybody makes mistakes. Biology is no different. However, living organisms have certain error-correction mechanisms that ...

As memory bit cells of any type become smaller, bit error rates increase due to lower margins and process variation. This can be dealt with using error correction to ...

There's a general consensus that performing any sort of complex algorithm on quantum hardware will have to wait for the arrival of error-corrected qubits. Individual qubits are too error-prone to be ...

Quantum systems can interact with one another and with their surroundings in ways that are fundamentally different from those of their classical counterparts. In a quantum sensor, the particularities ...

If you’ve ever sent a text message, played a CD, or stored a file in the cloud, you’ve benefited from error correction. This revolutionary idea dates back to the ...

Same. I'm very tech savvy and fairly physics savvy, but quantum computing just fails entirely to register in my brain. Same. I'm very tech savvy and fairly physics savvy, but quantum computing just ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have succeeded, for the first time, in quickly and continuously correcting errors in digital quantum systems. This means they have overcome an important hurdle on the road to ...

Given three-bit corrections, for example, one could elect to use two of those bits for repairing errors and one bit for run-time reading noise. This creates some room for push and pull between the ...
