It is worth remembering that this virtual design does not correspond to the actual or the physical shape of the computer netw... | <urn:uuid:b8c7421a-93b3-4747-8ef9-1c2f04b3a371> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://www.wifinotes.com/computer-networks/network-topology.html | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400379512.32/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123259-00179-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.899451 | 1,833 | 4.03125 | 4 |
Quantum technologies are the way of the future, but will that future ever arrive?
Maybe so. Physicists have cleared a bit more of the path to a plausible quantum future by constructing an elementary network for exchanging and storing quantum information. The network features two all-purpose nodes that can send, receive... | <urn:uuid:de9044c9-55a1-4a26-a520-1ff98872c910> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/universal-quantum-network/ | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416931009968.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20141125155649-00069-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.942877 | 1,158 | 3.796875 | 4 |
Jan. 18, 2001 — Physicists say they can effectively catch a light pulse in a bottle, hold onto it and release it, in an operation described as slowing light to a dead stop. It’s actually the information about the light wave that’s being captured, the researchers say, and such techniques could be applied to a future gen... | <urn:uuid:eb24bf4b-9ea8-4c2e-8967-3cdd26bdccb0> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://www.today.com/id/3077366/ns/technology_and_science-science/ | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400378862.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123258-00047-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.937777 | 1,397 | 3.703125 | 4 |
When in 1935 physicist Erwin Schrödinger proposed his thought experiment involving a cat that could be both dead and alive, he could have been talking about D-Wave Systems. The Canadian start-up is the maker of what it claims is the world’s first commercial-scale quantum computer. But exactly what its computer does and... | <urn:uuid:788d5193-e5fb-4e44-9d8e-fadf975d8355> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://spectrum.ieee.org/computing/hardware/dwaves-year-of-computing-dangerously | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400376197.4/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123256-00116-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.945716 | 1,697 | 3.609375 | 4 |
If the experiment was meant to silence the critics, it didn’t. Four years ago, an upstart tech company created a stir when it claimed to have built a quantum computer—a thing that, in principle, could solve problems ordinary computers can’t. Physicists from D-Wave Systems in Burnaby, Canada, even put on a demonstration... | <urn:uuid:397e301f-6b3f-4b68-9daa-4ed5ab7275f0> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://news.sciencemag.org/physics/2011/05/controversial-computer-least-little-quantum-mechanical?mobile_switch=mobile | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400379404.25/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123259-00226-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.951651 | 1,396 | 3.640625 | 4 |

You may have a $10,000 Sub-Zero fridge in your kitchen, but this is cooler. Theoretical physicists have dreamed up a scheme to make a refrigerator out of a pair of quantum particles such as ions or atoms, or even a single particle. The fridges may be the smallest ones possible. “It’s very elegant and innovative,” says ... | <urn:uuid:4136625a-7681-4b2e-ba8a-f677d4c22b92> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://news.sciencemag.org/2010/08/quantum-physicists-dream-smallest-possible-refrigerator | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400379512.32/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123259-00193-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.952537 | 1,052 | 3.5625 | 4 |
