DESCRIPTION:The speaker will review of various quantum computing devices\, 
 how quantum properties make quantum computing possible and the kinds of pr
 oblems that could have a quantum speedup in the future.\n\nQuantum computi
 ng is the exploitation of physical properties of quantum states\, such as 
 superposition and entanglement\, to perform computation. The devices that 
 perform quantum computations are known as quantum computers. They are beli
 eved to be able to solve certain computational problems\, such as integer 
 factorization (used in cryptography)\, substantially faster than classical
  computers. Quantum Computing is expected to grow in the next few years as
  the field shifts toward real-world use in pharmaceutical\, data security 
 and many other applications.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Subra Ganesan\n\nSpeaker(
