A quantum computer is an information processing device that harnesses the strange power of quantum mechanics: it can exist in several states simultaneously and its computation paths can interfere with each other. Following a brief introduction to quantum information, the talk will review developments in quantum algorithms and various notions of communication with quantum information.
