Abstract

The majority of this chapter will be devoted to logic-related side of quantum-based computing in the form of logic gates and related concepts. The four main quantum computing models will also be covered, namely, quantum gate arrays, one-way quantum computers, adiabatic quantum systems, and topological quantum computers. While not exactly mainstream right now, quantum devices are well on their way. Absorb this chapter well and you will stay ahead of the trajectory in these matters; you're reading about the near future with all its implications for you and/or your organization after all.
