We present a comprehensive review of past research into adiabatic quantum computation and then propose a scalable architecture for an adiabatic quantum computer that can treat NP-hard problems without requiring local coherent operations. Instead, computation can be performed entirely by adiabatically varying a magnetic field applied to all the qubits simultaneously. Local (incoherent) operations are needed only for: (1) switching on or off certain pairwise, nearest-neighbor inductive couplings in order to set the problem to be solved and (2) measuring some subset of the qubits in order to obtain the answer to the problem.
