Quantum Compution Back Action 2006 Kanpur, India, 6-12 March 2006

All papers were peer-reviewed. This conference focused on the issue of quantum computation with a very unique perspective of its back action rather than its future, which has usually been the focus. Leading international researchers working on quantum computing from computer science, information technology, physics, and chemistry present their most recent scholarly research indicating the current impact of quantum computing on science and technology. Participants addressed the question: What if the realization of a quantum computer were impossible? There was consensus among the attendees that even if efforts prove to be futile, the concept of a quantum computer has still provided novel ways to consider computing and that many other new applications will become possible built upon the foundation of quantum computing.Goswami, Debabrata is the author of 'Quantum Compution Back Action 2006 Kanpur, India, 6-12 March 2006', published 2006 under ISBN 9780735403628 and ISBN 0735403627.
