Quantum computing challenges in the software industry. A fuzzy AHP-based approach

The current technology revolution has posed unexpected challenges for the software industry. In recent years, field of quantum computing (QC) technologies continued to grow in influence and maturity, it is now poised revolutionise engineering. However, evaluation prioritisation QC industry remain unexplored, relatively under-identified fragmented. purpose this study identify, examine prioritise most critical by implementing a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (F-AHP). First, identify key challenges, we conducted systematic literature review drawing data from four relevant digital libraries supplementing these efforts with forward backward snowballing search. Second, followed F-AHP approach evaluate rank identified or barriers. results show that barriers adoption are lack technical expertise, information accuracy organisational interest adopting new process. Another barrier standards secure communication techniques QC. By applying F-AHP, institutional as highest second global weight ranked categories among main facing We observed highest-ranked local resources design initiative while significant barrier. Our findings, which entail implications both academicians practitioners, reveal emergent nature research increasing need interdisciplinary address challenges.
