annealers
Heat treatment workers
Annealers are devices or workers that perform annealing—the process of heating metal or glass and then cooling it slowly to remove internal stresses and increase durability.
In computing, an annealer is a specialized processor designed for optimization problems, modeled on the metallurgical process: The quantum annealer found solutions faster than conventional methods.
