The approach runs more computation directly on quantum processing units rather than hybrid classical systems. Tests with 100-500 vehicles on Almaty traffic maps using D-Wave Advantage QPU showed faster solution times and better optimization performance, positioning quantum annealing as a practical tool for smart transportation systems. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
