quantum computing Quantum Measurements

With the end of the Moore’s law, it became imperative to find new principles for computing that can avoid the current physical limitations. Among the promising approaches is Quantum Computing which has resulted in substantial national investments in research and development in this area by many nations. This first tutorial is designed to target scientists, engineers and mathematicians who are interested in this rapidly growing field but have not yet invested enough time in learning about it.
