D-Wave is the company that claims to have made revolutionizing progress towards a quantum computer. It will hold two events; one on the 13th at Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California and on the 15th at Telus World of Science in Vancouver, Canada. The system that it calls Orion has been designed to solve a NP problem called two dimensional Ising model in a magnetic field. The system i built around a superconducting 16-qubit adiabatic quantum processor and it can be used with a regular system which is in need of a NP problem solver. 16-qubit means that it has 16 quasi-circular loops arranged in 4 x 4;
The picture shows how the circuit has been designed with its 16 qubits. Each qubit is then connected to its nearest neighbor cluster through an tunable flux transformer, all in all 42 connections.
The implementation of these circuits will be incredibly simple though as no software will have to be specifically written, but you can use the same software as of today, just redirect the NP problem here instead. D-Wave will use two applications to demonstrate the power of the processor where one will search in databases for molecules which follows a certain pattern. The other is a seat arrangement program that will simply arrange seats according to the persons’ individual demands and requirements, for example for a dinner or a wedding.
