It is believed that new types of computing machines will be constructed to exploit quantum mechanics for an exponential speed advantage in solving certain problems compared with classical computers 9.

The method of simple random sampling (METHOD=SRS) selects units with equal probability and without replacement. Each possible sample of n different units out of N has the same probability of being ...

Computer scientists have developed a completely new kind of algorithm, one that exponentially speeds up computation by dramatically reducing the number of parallel steps required to reach a solution.
