Optimize and Innovate with Digital Annealer
Automotive: Factory Optimization
Car manufacturers are looking to improve production efficiencies in order toaccelerate deployment of new vehicles. Tasks include logistics improvements,
vehicle design and robotics optimization. Digital Annealer-powered production aims
to identify errors and flaws such as corrosion, defects and quality issues immediatelyimproving overall production planning and ultimately vehicle delivery.

Bio/Material Science: Molecular Similarity Search
Chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories use molecular similarity searching, which
partially extracts molecule characteristics to search for new substances and todevelop new drugs. Digital Annealer-powered research explores entire molecularstructures without relying on extraction, thereby enabling accurate, instantsimilarity searching.

Financial Services: Low-Risk Portfolio Optimization
A Digital Annealer powered portfolio solution finds the ideal investment allocation tomaximize returns by grouping stocks that correlate with price variations, enabling
portfolios to be managed with accuracy and reduced risk. The Digital Annealer solution
can instantly find the best permutation from among 20 or more stocks (equivalent tomore than one quintillion permutations).

Distribution: Warehouse Inventory Management
In factories and distribution warehouses, the time it takes workers to walk aroundpicking parts can be lengthy. Using Digital Annealer in a factory environment, theFujitsu IT services team was able to optimize routes and in-stock part placement soworkers can successfully reduce distance traveled by up to 45 percent, significantly
increasing productivity.

Retail: Personalized Digital Marketing
Using Digital Annealar, marketing agencies and retail companies can accurately

The World's First Quantum-Inspired Technology
Delivering Performance Generations Aheadand instantly deliver personalized content to existing and prospective customers
through engaging and targeted web content, thereby influencing their purchasedecisions.

Combinatorial Optimization Problems

Fujitsu delivers Technology and Services
with Quantum-Inspired Technology;
providing a bridge to the Quantum world
without the complexities of traditional
Quantum Computers

Combinatorial optimization refers to finding the optimal solution from a finite set of options.
However, as the finite set of options increases, the computational power and the time needed tofind the solution increases exponentially. For example, in the case of the‘traveling salesman
problem’if the salesman must travel to 30 cities, then it will take the most powerful classicalcomputer on the market today approximately 800 million years to find the shortest possible route.
Using Digital Annealer, these types of problems can now be solved in less than a second. It is an
extraordinary opportunity to optimize and innovate within your business environment.

Why Digital Annealer?
Digital circuit design inspired by quantum phenomena
8192-bit full connectivity, allowing all bits to freely exchange signals,
in order to solve large-scale problems
Inter-bit coupling, providing 64-bit (264)gradations and extreme
accuracy in comparison to all traditional quantum technology
in the market today

Achieving the Impossible
Innovating business processes and operations through the use of Artificial Intelligence and advanced
technology to drive digital innovation and transformation is becoming a top priority for organizations
striving for a competitive advantage. However, solving complex optimization problems quickly withexisting classical computers is essentially unattainable today. As a result, companies need toleverage advanced technologies and additional computing power to grow their business, reduce costs
and improve profitability.
With the recent advancements in quantum-inspired computing methods led by Fujitsu, companies
can transform global business and society by solving real world, large-scale optimization problems
today; problems which are otherwise unsolvable with the solutions available in the market.

Operates at room temperature versus absolute zero (-273.15 °C) which
is typically required for quantum computing solutions
Integrates seamlessly into standard data center operating environments
without the need for specific expertise or complex infrastructure

Services
APIs are available as part of a cloud service along with comprehensive integration and support services tocomplement the Digital Annealer architecture so businesses can spend more time innovating rather thanintegrating new technology.

Of course, our relationship with Fujitsu is a real honor for allof us here at 1QBit. 1QBit has been working with a number ofcompanies that are focused on producing quantum hardware,
but the Fujitsu Digital Annealer is one of the first pieces ofreally usable hardware that can leverage all of the research that
1QBit has engineered over the past four years.

We greatly value our research collaborations with Fujitsu
through the Fujitsu Co-Creation Research Laboratory at theUniversity of Toronto. We are proud to have contributed to thecreation of the Digital Annealer, and we are looking forward tosolving many problems in engineering, environment, medicine,smart cities, and finance, using the Digital Annealer.
