摘要
A new type of computer has been conceived which is capable of exploiting quantum-mechanical interactions. This feature will enable the quantum computer to defeat many of the most sophisticated encryption schemes in use. The quantum computer can perform myriad operations in parallel, using only a single processing unit.
