A Study and Analysis of Applications of Classical Computing and Quantum Computing: A Survey

Abstract

In the world of computation, the invention of Computers has reduced human effort for accomplishing task. Depending on the type, size and nature of the work the computers are manufactured in different magnitudes. As the technology grows, it facilitated to manufacture high performing, high throughput, and high memory Classical computers. Classical computers store any information in the form of bits in the memory device, which can be either 1 or 0 (binary system) and all the processing will be done in the same logic i.e., high voltage/low voltage. Because of this logic the classical computers solve some problems by using more resources. Quantum computer are the next level computers which uses quantum theory principles for solving problems. The quantum computer uses Qubit as basic unit which uses principles of quantum computing such as superposition and entanglement, which gives qubit, the efficiency of exhibiting many logical states at a time. This paper shows a comparative study on classical and quantum computers and illustrates various problems in classical computers and respective solutions with use of quantum computers.
