Abstract :
Heat dissipation, leakage, and other physical phenomena limit our ability to build increasingly faster solid state devices, while quantum computation holds out the promise to solve efficiently most difficult problems in computational sciences such as simulation of quantum systems, integer factorization, database searching and the computation of discrete logarithms.
