The evolution of mobile communications has been nothing short of astonishing. After reaching the 5G era, where we have already started experiencing peak data rates and latencies of the unthinkable kind, the industry is now setting its sights on the next frontier: the 6th Generation (6G) technologies. 6G is expected to integrate with artificial intelligence, massive IoT, distributed computing, and a wide range of revolutionary technologies. But, as with any novel tech, it presents unique architectural requirements, challenges, and ample …

Quantum annealing, a subset of quantum computing, offers a promising solution to optimization problems, opening new horizons in computational capacities. This technique harnesses the principles of quantum mechanics to find the minimum (or maximum) of a function, a task crucial in fields such as finance, logistics, and machine learning. What is Quantum Annealing? Quantum annealing is inspired by classical annealing, a physical process wherein a material is heated and then slowly cooled to remove defects, thereby minimizing its energy. Similarly, …
