SUMMARY:Quantum computing with the D-Wave processor
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nIQC/PHYSICS SPECIAL SEMINAR - LOREN SWENSON\, D-WA
 VE SYSTEMS\n\nI will introduce quantum annealing as a technique for harnes
 sing\nquantum mechanics to solve hard problems. The design of a quantum\na
 nnealing processor based on superconducting flux qubits\, some of the\ncha
 llenges we have encountered in constructing it\, and measurements\nconfirm
 ing the role of quantum mechanics in such processors will be\npresented. F
 inally\, I will briefly discuss recent benchmarking and\nsimulation result
 s using the D-Wave 2000Q processor.\n
