D-wave is a company that specializes in quantum computing systems. The complex nature of quantum computing has limited the software field primarily to individuals who have expertise in particle physics, D-wave looks to reduce the barrier to creating software that uses quantum processing with the release of qbsolv: software that greatly simplifies the process of using quantum computers. The software is currently limited to D-wave hardware, which greatly limits it’s practical uses for most engineers. However, as quantum computing becomes more widespread, it’s likely that software like this will become useful on more platforms.
