These same problems would take hundreds of years to solve on our bes t supercomputers\, known as a classical computers\, by brute-forcing their way searching through all possible solutions.  If usable quantum computin g were accessible\, the field of cryptography would dramatically change\, and encryption codes could be broken quickly and perhaps crushing Blockcha in technology.  The fields of Chemistry\, Medicine\, and Pharmacology woul d shift to the next level with this dramatic leap in computing power--perh aps providing real solutions to climate change\, food production\, supply chain issues\, or drug discovery and cures for cancer.The presentation wil l discuss:What is Quantum Computing?How does it work?What is Entanglement? Can we really communicate faster than the speed of light?Have Quantum Comp uters already outperformed the best supercomputer?Can it break Encryption as we know it?Is Dayton a special place for breaking Encryption?Are there jobs in Quantum Computing?How can I write my first quantum computing progr am?How do I learn more?It will have live examples and is accessible to eve ryone without the need to be an expert in computer science\, mathematics\, or physics. There will be a webinar of the presentation for anyone that c annot attend in person.Event Webpage: https://wright.webex.com/wright/j.ph p?RGID=rb4cc25d5e2917931740c34f2e0cb05d0 DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220825T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220825T130000 LAST-MODIFIED:20220817T194449Z LOCATION:NEC Room 101 (Neuroscience Engineering Collaboration Building) SUMMARY:The Excitement of Quantum Computing by Nella Ludlow\, Ph.D. URL;TYPE=URI:/events/excitement-quantum-computing-nel la-ludlow-phd END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
