  • QUANTUM COMPUTING EXPLAINED

    A Quantum Computer is a processor whose function is based on the laws of quantum mechanics. This rapidly evolving technology will provide faster computing solutions to problems that only supercomputers can currently solve – or are considered unsolvable at the current state of the art.

  • QUANTUM MECHANICS

    Quantum mechanics is the basis of Quantum Computing and refers to the scientific laws that affect the smallest dimension of nature: molecules, atoms and subatomic particles. At this level new physical phenomena like superposition and entanglement arise and can be used for computing.

  • WHAT IS A
    QUBIT?

    Qubit is the short form for Quantum bit. As the basis of Quantum Computing, Qubits can – in contrast to bits, which can only be represented by a zero or a one – be a zero, a one or both at the same time and form a so-called superposition.

  • HOW DOES A QUANTUM COMPUTER WORK?

    Today, standard computers process information in bits, whereas quantum computers use Qubits and thus use the concept of superposition. This can lead to extremely fast processing so that calculations that are not possible with conventional computers become reality.

Allocating railway traffic with QUBO

Coordinating routing trains in railway stations is a well-known and complex problem, given the many conditions to be considered and the potential for sudden unforeseen events. Using the QUBO model, Reply has demonstrated how to optimise railway traffic management with the support of Quantum Computing, while also improving the end-user experience.
