This edition officially launches the Quantum Computing Brazil series, complementing the Quantum Computing Manual 2024, translated into six languages and read in 32 countries.
Developed for students and technology professionals, this book explores the world of quantum computing with accessible and objective language, detailing fundamentals, applications, architecture, and sector trends.
The book offers an integrated view of the main technologies on the market, including Qiskit (IBM), Cirq (Google), Quantum Development Kit (Microsoft), Amazon Braket, D-Wave, PyQuil, QuTiP, and Forest SDK (Rigetti). It explains the functioning of qubits, logic gates, classical and quantum algorithms, and globally recognized frameworks and SDKs.
Focusing on understanding essential concepts, the book discusses the evolution of quantum computing, its relationship with Python, Jupyter Notebooks, cloud computing, leading market simulators, cybersecurity, post-quantum cryptography, and emerging professional opportunities.
The reader will understand:
• Fundamentals and architecture of quantum computing
• The nature of qubits, states, logic gates, and operations
• Differences between classical and quantum algorithms
• The ecosystem of main frameworks and SDKs: Qiskit, Cirq, PyQuil, Azure Quantum, D-Wave, Forest, QuTiP
• Structure and simulation of quantum circuits
• Impacts on cybersecurity, cryptography, and new market demands
• Trends, sector evolution, career opportunities, and certifications in quantum computing
At the end, the reader will have a solid and up-to-date foundation to interpret scenarios, assess trends, communicate with multidisciplinary teams, participate in innovative projects, and position themselves professionally in the face of transformations driven by quantum computing.
