• ]. The competitiveness of SDT illustrates a working prototype for a superconducting computer developed under the “Cryogenic computing complexity” IARPA program [6]. This is a 64-bit computing machine operating at a 10 GHz clock frequency with a throughput of 1013 bit-op/s and an energy efficiency of 1015

• Josephson junctions as base elements for a superconducting computer were presented by Karabassov et al. [9] and Marychev et al. [10]. In the latter, the authors present a theoretical study of the current–phase relation of very promising SN-S-SN Josephson junctions, which could serve as energy efficient

• , high-performance superconducting electronics elements for fast computing. This issue also contains progress towards various technological processes for fabrication and characterization of the base elements of a superconducting computer. For example, Arutyunov et al. [11] presented an advanced
