Atos confirms role as global leader in quantum hybridization technologies at its 8th Quantum Advisory Board

Paris, France – December 3, 2021

At the conference of the 8th Atos Quantum Advisory Board, a group of international professionals, mathematicians and physicists, authorities in their fields, Atos reaffirms its placement as a world wide chief in quantum computing systems. The quantum hybridization axis (convergence of higher-effectiveness computing (HPC) and quantum computing) in specific positions the corporation at the forefront of quantum research, converging its abilities. Atos has invested, alongside with lover get started-ups Pasqal and IQM, in two key quantum hybridization jobs in France and Germany.

Held at Atos’ R&D centre, dedicated to research in quantum computing and higher-effectiveness computing, in Clayes-sous-Bois, in the existence of Atos’ subsequent CEO, Rodolphe Belmer, and below the chairmanship of Pierre Barnabé, Chair of the Quantum Advisory Board, Interim co-CEO and Head of Significant Information and Cybersecurity, this conference of the Quantum Advisory Board was an prospect to review Atos’ current operate and to choose stock of potential potential clients.

Artur Ekert, Professor of Quantum Physics at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford, Founding Director of the Centre for Quantum Systems in Singapore and member of the Quantum Advisory Board claimed “We are truly amazed by the operate and the development that Atos has designed more than the earlier 12 months. The corporation requires quantum computing seriously and it presents us terrific enjoyment to see it getting to be one of the essential gamers in the industry. It is a normal progression for Atos. As a world chief in Large Efficiency Computing (HPC), Atos is in a exceptional placement to mix its current, in depth, abilities in HPC with quantum technological know-how and choose the two fields to new heights. We are self-confident that Atos will form the quantum landscape in a long time to arrive, the two with research and purposes that have extended-lasting affect.”

In the industry of quantum hybridization Atos is the only participant and the corporation is now enabling various purposes – in the parts of chemistry, such as catalysis design and style for nitrogen fixation, and for the optimization of clever grids. Atos is also associated in two supplemental quantum hybridization jobs, which are presently currently being released:

The European HPC-QS (Quantum Simulation) job, which starts this December 2021, aims to make the to start with European hybrid supercomputer with an built-in quantum accelerator by the stop of 2023. It is intended to be a to start with key brick of the French quantum plan. Atos is associated in this job along with nationwide associates together with the CEA, GENCI, Pasqal and the Julich Supercomputing Centre. Pasqal will offer its analog quantum accelerator and Atos, with its quantum simulator, the Quantum Mastering Device (QLM), will assure the hybridization with the HPCs at the two datacenters at GENCI and Julich.

The Q-EXA job, aspect of the German Governing administration quantum plan, will see a consortium of associates, together with Atos, operate jointly to integrate a German quantum laptop into an HPC supercomputer for the to start with time. Atos’ QLM will be instrumental in connecting the quantum laptop, from get started-up IQM (also aspect of the Atos Scaler application) to the Leibniz Supercomputing-LRZ centre.

The European Corporation for Nuclear Research (CERN), one of the world’s largest and most respected research centres, based in Geneva, has a short while ago obtained an Atos Quantum Mastering Device (QLM) equipment and joined the Atos Consumer Club. The Atos QLM, shipped to CERN in October, will be designed readily available to the CERN scientific local community to guidance research activities in the framework of the CERN Quantum Know-how Initiative (CERN QTI), therefore accelerating the investigation of quantum gain for higher-electrical power physics (HEP) and further than.

“Building on CERN’s exceptional abilities and solid collaborative tradition, co-improvement initiatives are at the main of CERN QTI. As we explore the speedy-evolving industry of quantum systems, obtain to the Atos Quantum Mastering Device and Atos’ abilities can play an significant position in our quantum developments roadmap in guidance of the higher-electrical power physics local community and further than,” states Alberto Di Meglio, Coordinator of the CERN Quantum Know-how Initiative. “A dedicated training workshop is currently being arranged with Atos to examine the total operation and probable of the quantum equipment, as perfectly as its potential application for some of the CERN QTI activities.”

“Atos is the world chief in the convergence of supercomputing and quantum computing, as shown by these two key and strategic jobs we are associated in in France and Germany. At a time when the French authorities is predicted to announce its plan for quantum computing, the durability of our Quantum Board, the quality of the operate carried out and the concrete purposes of this research in key jobs reinforce this placement,” responses Pierre Barnabé, interim co-CEO and head of Significant Information and Cybersecurity at Atos.

The Quantum Advisory Board is designed up of universally recognized quantum physicists and includes:

  • Alain Aspect, Professor at the Institut d’Optique Graduate Faculty, Université Paris-Saclay and at Ecole Polytechnique, Institut Polytechnique de Paris
  • David DiVincenzo, Alexander von Humboldt Professor, Director of the Institute for Quantum Info at RWTH Aachen University, Director of the Institute for Theoretical Nanoelectronics at the Juelich Research Center
  • Artur Ekert, Professor of Quantum Physics at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford and Founding Director of the Centre for Quantum Systems in Singapore
  • Daniel Esteve, Research Director, CEA Saclay, Head of Quantronics
  • Serge Haroche, Professor emeritus at the Collège de France, Nobel laureate in Physics.

As a final result of Atos’ formidable application to foresee the potential of quantum computing and to be ready for the options and worries that arrive with it – ‘Atos Quantum’ – Atos was the to start with firm to offer you a quantum noisy simulation module which can simulate real Qubits, the Atos QLM and to propose Q-rating, the only universal metrics to evaluate quantum effectiveness and superiority. Atos is also the to start with European patent holder in quantum computing.
