Abstract

Recent publications suggest that quantum computing may have enormous advantages over the "classical" computation of the present day. For example, Shor has demonstrated that a quantum computer could, at least in principle, provide a remarkable advantage in the factoring of very large numbers. This paper reviews the fundamental requirements for a quantum computation system as well as some of the most important ideas involved in potential applications of such systems.
