This week IBM Quantum introduced a new quantum computing architecture-neutral performance speed metric called CLOPS. CLOPS is short for “Circuit Layer Operations per Second.” For those of you familiar with measuring the speed of high performance classical computers, the acronym is a nod to the metric FLOPS, or “Floating point Operations per Second.” CLOPS joins…

Keynote: It’s Not Just the Qubits
This talk was at the Linux Foundation Open FinTech Forum in New York City in late 2018. The title refers to the number of qubits not being the only significant metric for determining the power of a quantum computer.
