Dublin, Ireland and Paris, France – seventeen December 2020
Atos these days announces it will produce its first GPU-accelerated Atos Quantum Learning Machine Enhanced (Atos QLM E), the world’s maximum-undertaking commercially accessible quantum simulator, to the Irish Centre for Large-Conclude Computing (ICHEC).
The Atos QLM E will be integrated with the Irish countrywide supercomputer ‘Kay’ and equipped with a wide variety of quantum software program programming tools. As a hybrid HPC-Quantum Computing ecosystem, the integrated Kay-Atos QLM E platform will serve the Quantum Programming Ireland (QPI) Initiative for conducting R&D and countrywide-degree competencies development activities in quantum technologies by ICHEC as effectively as other Irish companies in academic, enterprise and general public sector.
Providing up to twelve instances additional computation speed than the initial Atos QLM, the Atos QLM E is also an integral component of the ‘NEASQC’ venture, in the €1 bn European flagship quantum initiative, of which Ireland is a lover together with eleven other European companies and exploration labs, and coordinated by Atos.
As soon as the Atos QLM E is sent on-premise, Atos will provide a rapidly-observe education system and keep on to enrich the process all through its lifetime to ensure that it delivers the operation necessary in this rapidly-moving willpower of quantum computing.
Prof. Jean-Christophe (“JC”) Desplat, Director at ICHEC, mentioned: “As Ireland’s higher general performance computing authority, we’re committed to using the energy of know-how to resolve some of the hardest problems across general public, academic and enterprise sectors. Doing the job with a range of associates across Europe, we seem ahead to employing the Atos QLM E relevant for R&D on a range of scientific and sector-relevant quantum computing use-cases and supporting scientific breakthroughs in higher-general performance computing.”
Agnès Boudot, Senior Vice President, Head of HPC & Quantum at Atos, mentioned: “As the first Atos QLM E deployed globally, this partnership marks an critical milestone in our Quantum Plan. We seem ahead to supporting ICHEC on their quantum journey, helping them examine with their users the big probable that quantum computing presents. The solution will provide a scalable, long run-evidence, countrywide framework for the porting of hybrid apps, and for the education and competencies development of Irish researchers, and ICHEC’s associates across Europe.”
Atos QLM E has been optimized to considerably cut down the simulation time of hybrid classical-quantum algorithms simulations, foremost to a lot quicker development in application exploration.
Atos, a pioneer in quantum
In 2016, Atos launched ‘Atos Quantum’ an ambitious system to foresee the long run of quantum computing. As a consequence of this initiative, Atos was the first firm to present a quantum noise simulation module inside of its Atos QLM present. Atos QLM is becoming used in numerous nations throughout the world including Austria, Finland, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Senegal, UK and the United States, empowering major exploration courses in numerous sectors like sector or electrical power. Recently, Atos released “Q-score”, the first universal quantum metrics reference, relevant to all programmable quantum processors.
