Quantum computer
Universal machine to efficientlysolve many types of problems
Example: the simulation ofquantum systems themselves
Always digital Stringent hardware requirements
Current smiconductor-based implementation higly successful Nevertheless inefficient for certain problems, including
Prime number factorization Simulating other quantum systems
Quantum simulator
Encode one hard-to-access quantumsystem in an easier-to-access one
Specialized, not universal Analog or digital variants Dramatically less stringent hardware
requirements
Classical computer
Quantum computing vs. quantum simulation
