Dublin, Eire and Paris, France – seventeen December 2020
Atos currently announces it will supply its initially GPU-accelerated Atos Quantum Discovering Machine Increased (Atos QLM E), the world’s best-performing commercially accessible quantum simulator, to the Irish Centre for Substantial-End Computing (ICHEC).
The Atos QLM E will be built-in with the Irish countrywide supercomputer ‘Kay’ and outfitted with a selection of quantum software package programming tools. As a hybrid HPC-Quantum Computing setting, the built-in Kay-Atos QLM E system will provide the Quantum Programming Eire (QPI) Initiative for conducting R&D and countrywide-level techniques development routines in quantum technologies by ICHEC as perfectly as other Irish businesses in tutorial, enterprise and public sector.
Featuring up to twelve instances far more computation velocity than the primary Atos QLM, the Atos QLM E is also an integral part of the ‘NEASQC’ job, in the €1 bn European flagship quantum initiative, of which Eire is a husband or wife together with eleven other European organizations and investigation labs, and coordinated by Atos.
When the Atos QLM E is shipped on-premise, Atos will provide a rapidly-monitor teaching plan and keep on to boost the method in the course of its life span to assure that it delivers the performance demanded in this rapidly-transferring discipline of quantum computing.
Prof. Jean-Christophe (“JC”) Desplat, Director at ICHEC, explained: “As Ireland’s superior functionality computing authority, we’re fully commited to applying the electric power of technological know-how to clear up some of the hardest challenges across public, tutorial and enterprise sectors. Performing with a amount of partners across Europe, we appear ahead to employing the Atos QLM E linked for R&D on a amount of scientific and marketplace-pertinent quantum computing use-cases and supporting scientific breakthroughs in superior-functionality computing.”
Agnès Boudot, Senior Vice President, Head of HPC & Quantum at Atos, explained: “As the initially Atos QLM E deployed globally, this partnership marks an critical milestone in our Quantum Software. We appear ahead to supporting ICHEC on their quantum journey, assisting them check out with their users the big potential that quantum computing presents. The remedy will provide a scalable, long term-evidence, countrywide framework for the porting of hybrid programs, and for the teaching and techniques development of Irish scientists, and ICHEC’s partners across Europe.”
Atos QLM E has been optimized to drastically reduce the simulation time of hybrid classical-quantum algorithms simulations, primary to a lot quicker progress in software investigation.
Atos, a pioneer in quantum
In 2016, Atos released ‘Atos Quantum’ an bold plan to anticipate the long term of quantum computing. As a result of this initiative, Atos was the initially firm to offer a quantum sound simulation module inside of its Atos QLM offer. Atos QLM is remaining employed in various nations around the globe including Austria, Finland, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Senegal, UK and the United States, empowering main investigation programs in a variety of sectors like marketplace or energy. Lately, Atos released “Q-score”, the initially universal quantum metrics reference, applicable to all programmable quantum processors.
