11/05/2011

D-Wave Systems is a quantum computing company, based in Canada. The company's D-Wave One was described as "the world's first commercially available quantum computer", operating on a 128-qubit chipset that uses quantum annealing.

Code-named "Rainer", the processor in the supercomputer can perform a single mathematical operation with discrete optimization. The quantum annealing is used to solve the optimization problems.
