Quantum Computing at Google and in the Cloud An update on Google's quantum computing program and its open source tools. by Kevin D. Kissell At: FOSDEM 2019 https://video.fosdem.org/2019/AW1.121... Google is a world leader in technology and a major contributor to a number of open source efforts. Google's quantum hardware and algorithms teams have achieved a number of quantum computing "firsts". This talk will present the Google quantum computing architecture, an update on current hardware implementations, and a description of the design and philosophy of Cirq, Google's open source programming language for near term "NISQ" (noisy intermediate-scale quantum) computers.
