A New Anti-Piracy Server Certification Protocol and A New Way to Simplify Quantum Computers

In honor of the SEMICON West 2021 and the Design Automation Conference that took place in San Francisco this week, my guest is Bob Smith from ESD Alliance. Bob and I are chatting about a new anti-piracy server certification protocol for software license management and why this kind of server certification protocol is needed now more than ever before. Also this week, I take a closer look at a new simplified quantum computer developed by a team of researchers at Stanford University. (Spoiler Alert: They use off the shelf parts!)
