Computers employ a variety of schemes to check whether a chunk of digital information–transmitted as a message, stored in a database, or functioning as a set of instructions–remains error-free. Such ...

I’ll discuss them with respect to RS code but they can be used with all FEC codes, including mixing types of FEC code. Interleaving is simply taking a number of messages and mixing the bytes, in a ...

A new technical paper titled “Leveraging Qubit Loss Detection in Fault-Tolerant Quantum Algorithms” was published by ...

Error detecting and correcting codes are based on significant distance between two bit strings in terms of the number of bits that have to alter to get from the first ...

IBM scientists today unveiled two critical advances towards the realization of a practical quantum computer. For the first time, they showed the ability to detect and measure both kinds of quantum ...

I, Brian Wang, interviewed Andrei Petrenko, Head of Product at Quantum Circuits and Neil Wu Becker, Head of Marketing for Quantum Circuits. Quantum Circuits presented at Q2B 2024 Silicon Valley at the ...

The controller has to do two sets of writes or reads — one for the data and one for the code, adding latency to each access. Some controllers can pack multiple codes together for sequential data, ...

Scientists have for the first time demonstrated improvement in quantum computers by using codes designed to detect and discard errors in the logic gates of such machines. The codes were applied to IBM ...
