Russia to create a quantum solver for business and industry

Russian scientists are studying technologies that will make it possible to create a quantum version of an existing solution — a universal solver, that is, a set of tools for performing specialized tasks. It is reported that such an optimizer will allow orders of magnitude faster calculations of tasks with tens and hundreds of millions of variables. Therefore, scientists are conducting various studies to identify problems to which quantum computing can be applied.

"We expect that such research will make the universal solver truly universal by adding a quantum component to it," said Alexey Chernov, project manager and Deputy head of the Laboratory of Numerical Methods of Applied Structural Optimization at the MIPT Phystech School of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science (FPMI).

According to Ruslan Gabbasov, CEO of KOR, in five years these developments may be in demand and will make it possible to make a breakthrough in logistics, energy and finance, and will provide business and industry with a breakthrough by orders of magnitude. This will not only close the issue of import substitution in complex computing algorithms, but also give Russia a technological advantage, the expert noted.
