Xanadu, Rolls-Royce, and Riverlane Successfully Complete Quantum Computing Project.

Xanadu, Rolls-Royce, and Riverlane have successfully completed a project using quantum computing to model jet engine airflow. The collaboration utilized Xanadu's PennyLane software and Riverlane's quantum algorithms, achieving a significant reduction in simulation runtimes. Classical supercomputers struggle with this task due to the large number of unknown variables, but quantum computers can potentially accelerate simulation times exponentially, leading to faster design prototyping for the aerospace industry.
