Diviser pour régner (informatique)thumb|652x652px|Trois étapes (diviser, régner, combiner) illustrées avec l'algorithme du tri fusion En informatique, diviser pour régner (du latin , divide and conquer en anglais) est une technique algorithmique consistant à : Diviser : découper un problème initial en sous-problèmes ; Régner : résoudre les sous-problèmes (récursivement ou directement s'ils sont assez petits) ; Combiner : calculer une solution au problème initial à partir des solutions des sous-problèmes.
Quantum algorithm for linear systems of equationsThe quantum algorithm for linear systems of equations, also called HHL algorithm, designed by Aram Harrow, Avinatan Hassidim, and Seth Lloyd, is a quantum algorithm published in 2008 for solving linear systems. The algorithm estimates the result of a scalar measurement on the solution vector to a given linear system of equations. The algorithm is one of the main fundamental algorithms expected to provide a speedup over their classical counterparts, along with Shor's factoring algorithm, Grover's search algorithm, and the quantum fourier transform.
Quantum algorithmIn quantum computing, a quantum algorithm is an algorithm which runs on a realistic model of quantum computation, the most commonly used model being the quantum circuit model of computation. A classical (or non-quantum) algorithm is a finite sequence of instructions, or a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem, where each step or instruction can be performed on a classical computer. Similarly, a quantum algorithm is a step-by-step procedure, where each of the steps can be performed on a quantum computer.
