Went for 1990s but don't know if this is right. Had to pick something. Directly from wikipedia: * 1994 - Peter Shor devises an algorithm which lets quantum computers determine the factorization of large integers quickly. This is the first interesting problem for which quantum computers promise a significant speed-up, and it therefore generates a lot of interest in quantum computers. So looks like 1990's is correct.
