Scientist proposes computer under quantum principles Scientist Paul Benioff is the first to propose a computer operating under the principles of quantum mechanics , based on Alan Turing ’ s paper tape computer described in a 1936 paper . Thirteen years later , in 1994 , MIT mathematician Peter Shor would present an algorithm that could outperform the best classical computing approach .

Scientists create the world ’ s first functioning quantum computer In the first experiment to successfully provide concrete proof of quantum computing ’ s potential , researchers from Oxford University , IBM , UC Berkeley , Stanford University and MIT use nuclear magnetic resonance to create an array of two qubits in a working quantum computer . Two years later , scientists create a seven-qubit quantum computer .
