Description for Quantum Approach to Informatics
Hardcover. The quantum theory of information, communication, and computing is rather recent, and is growing at a surprising speed. Many discussions of physical observations and quantum measurements are phrased in terms of information theoretic concepts. There is a need to educate students in this new way of thinking. Num Pages: 238 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: UYA. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 236 x 162 x 16. Weight in Grams: 478.
An essential overview of quantum information
Information, whether inscribed as a mark on a stone tablet or encoded as a magnetic domain on a hard drive, must be stored in a physical object and thus made subject to the laws of physics. Traditionally, information processing such as computation occurred in a framework governed by laws of classical physics. However, information can also be stored and processed using the states of matter described by non-classical quantum theory. Understanding this quantum information, a fundamentally different type of information, has been a major project of physicists and information theorists in ... Read more
