The primary method for detecting and correcting errors in transmitted data. Forward error correction (FEC) adds bits to the outgoing message, and the receiving end ...

Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

Steve Brierley argues that quantum computers must implement comprehensive error-correction techniques before they can become fully useful to society Exploiting their advantage Quantum computers will ...

There’s widespread agreement that most useful quantum computing will have to wait for the development of error-corrected qubits. Error correction involves ...
