Abstract: Quantum computing is a new computer technology that gradually becomes ready to tackle small real-world applications. We give an overview of recent applications that we studied on the currently largest quantum annealers, the 5000+ qubit quantum annealer Advantage and its 2000+ qubit predecessor D-Wave 2000Q. The applications contain (1) exact cover problems for airline scheduling, (2) vegetable garden optimization, (3) quantum support vector machines for applications in computational biology and remote sensing, and (4) hard 2SAT problems for benchmarking quantum annealers. All problems serve as benchmarks to measure the progress but also the limitations of the current generation of quantum computers.
