The Quantum Computing Applications Lab will provide quantum computing as a service to government ministries and departments, researchers, scientists, academia, and developers, to enable advances in areas such as manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, and aerospace engineering. AWS will provide hosting with technical and programmatic support for the Lab.
The government body said that the Quantum Computing Applications Lab will work with subject matter experts from the government sector to define the problem statements, and make them public, inviting applications from researchers, academia, and organizations to address them. It will then provide select applicants with access to quantum computing hardware, simulators, and programming tools, on-demand and at no cost, via Amazon Braket that enables scientists and developers to build algorithms, conduct advanced simulations, and run experiments.
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) on Tuesday announced it will establish a Quantum Computing Applications Lab in India, in collaboration with the Amazon Web Services (AWS). The lab is being set to accelerate quantum computing-led research and development and enable new scientific discoveries.
What is Quantum Computing :-
A quantum computer is a computation device that makes direct use of quantum mechanical phenomena, such as the superposition and entanglement of atoms, photons, electrons etc., to perform operations on data. Quantum computers are different from digital computers based on transistors [1]. Whereas digital computers require data to be encoded into binary digits (bits), quantum computation uses quantum properties to represent data and perform operations on these data. A theoretical model is the quantum Turing machine, also known as the universal quantum computer. Quantum computers shared theoretical similarities with non-deterministic and probabilistic computers [1, 5, and 8]. It has the potential to perform calculations, billions of time faster than any silicon based computer.
