Where can I find a copy of "Shor's quantum factoring algorithm".  The
ATT website no longer has his original paper?

Howdy mrsneaky,

Although not the original paper, I have located the transcript
of a lecture on Shor's Quantum Factoring Algorithm by Samuel J.
Lomonaco, Jr. that seems to cover it in detail.

I have also found copies of the following papers by Mr. Shor.

- Polynomial-Time Algorithms for Prime Factorization and Discrete
Logarithms on a Quantum Computer
- Introduction to Quantum Algorithms

Would any of the above be acceptable as an answer?

Looking Forward, denco-ga

Sorry I thought you posted both.  The first post by tutuzdad is what I
think I was looking for.

Thanks,
MrSneaky

and the other post sounds interesting and useful, just the origianl
post is what I was referring to and I think is the paper I was in
search.

Thanks again
