Real-World Quantum Applications at Business Scale
Our singular focus is helping customers succeed. Our customers have built quantum applications in diverse areas such as resource scheduling, mobility, logistics, drug discovery, portfolio optimization, manufacturing processes, and much more.
Optimizing eCommerce Logistics
Pattison Food Group has over 100 stores that offer e-commerce delivery. 3-4 people are dedicated to manually creating driver schedules each week. Pattison worked with D-Wave to create these schedules automatically, taking scheduling rules (seniority, preferences/history, and policies) into account. As a result, weekly manual efforts for initial scheduling creation was reduced by ~80%.
“The auto-scheduler is saving both time and effort, trimming what was once an 80-hour task to just 15 hours each week, an 80%-time savings.”
Optimizing Telecom Resources
NTT Docomo is leveraging D-Wave's quantum technology to reduce the load on base stations and ease congestion during times of high call volume. They have been conducting demonstration experiments at base stations in the Tokai, Chugoku, and Kyushu areas, demonstrating and confirming that paging signals can be reduced by up to 15%.
“With D-Wave’s hybrid quantum technology,” he said, “we aim to set a new standard in the telecommunications industry for operational performance.”
Groovenauts and Mitsubishi Estate Optimized Waste Collection to Reduce CO2 Emissions by 57%
Groovenauts and Mitsubishi Estate used D-Wave's quantum technology to create more sustainable cities through optimized waste management and reduced carbon dioxide emissions.
“Utilizing quantum annealing, the route for collecting waste, currently requiring a distance of about 2,300 km, was optimized and reduced to just 1,000 km. As a result, CO2 emissions would be reduced by approximately 57%, and the number of vehicles reduced by approximately 59%.”
