DESCRIPTION

D-Wave has been selling quantum annealing computers since 2010 and customers have built over 150 early applications on D-Wave computers. They currently sell a 2000 qubit quantum annealer but should have a 5000-5600 qubit system available in about 15 months. The new system will have the new Pegasus architecture which will increase connections from 6 to 16. This reduces connections needed for graphs by about half. Two dozen customer projects and early applications in transportation, online commerce, healthcare, automotive, and other industries were presented at a recent conference. Selected talks at the conference include: * A new AI and optimization
