During the past year there was an information that Google may start developing a corporate server for their needs. Been demonstrated a motherboard for the IBM Power8, and there was talk of creating a processor architecture ARM. In reality, though Google may also be interested in all of the above, strategic for the company will be very different projects. For example, in the official Google blog entry appeared a company representative which tells about the beginning of work on the processors for quantum computation.
Laboratory Google Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab in collaboration with the University of California at Santa Barbara s will work on the processor architecture for quantum computers. The basis for the project come from work in conditions of absolute zero, and superconductivity. Therefore, companies have to create an effective cooling system. Google decided to not bother looking for solutions for quantum computing at room temperature and create a working platform as soon as possible.
Together with scientists from Google will experiment with the improvement of machines Vesuvius - a project of the laboratory NASA. In a short time this quantum computer will be upgraded to the system Washington. It should be noted that considerable importance is the development of appropriate software. Calculations using qubits based on different principles, and optimization is a critical value for the event success .
