At the final RSPE Directors Colloquium for 2016, the packed Huxley Theatre was treated to a discussion on the future of computing by Prof Michelle Simmons. It was shown that new atomic scale devices are opening pathways to building a quantum computer that will continue the exponential increase in computational processing power. This was a fascinating and insightful presentation.
