Quantum computing represents a future
where some problems would be solved
much faster than the present
conventional computers.
This was stated by Dr.Suhail Zubairy,
Professor of Physics and Munnerlyn-
Heep Chair in Quantum Optics at Texas
A&M University. He was delivered a
lecture on ‘Quantum Computing- New
Frontiers’ at a local hotel.
The talk was part of Habib University’s
Lecture Series which aims to promote
academic discourse and provide a space
for dialogue and enquiry. Dr. Zubairy is
a Fellow of the American Physical
Society and a recipient of several
awards such as Hilal-e-Imtiaz and

Humboldt Research Prize of the
Republic of Germany.
In his talk, Dr. Zubairy presented a
general review of interesting
developments in the field of quantum
computing and the implications it has
on other scientific areas. According to
him, ‘Quantum computing represents a
future where some problems shall be
solved much faster than by our present
conventional computers. Research in
this field has generated many
interesting spinoffs such as the
possibility of a perfectly secure
communication on publicly accessible
channels
