Atos supports the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre in pioneering quantum-accelerated computing with the Atos QLM

Munich and Paris, March eighteen, 2021

Atos today declared that it has shipped its Atos Quantum Finding out Machine (Atos QLM), the world’s best-performing commercially offered quantum simulator, to the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ), of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The Atos QLM is installed in the a short while ago opened LRZ Quantum Integration Centre (QIC), Bavaria’s preeminent computing facility. The middle was designed to bring realistic quantum programs to the scientific local community by advancing the convergence of quantum computing and supercomputing.

The LRZ is amid the initially computing facilities throughout the world to emphasis on the integration of quantum computing in an HPC setting with its Quantum Integration Centre. The hybrid quantum-HPC solution exhibits significant claims in successfully using today’s classical computers to harness the electricity of near-term quantum programs. Leveraging equally the Atos QLM and its collaboration with essential players like Atos, the Finnish-German startup IQM and other associates, LRZ will be in a position to make quantum systems offered to a lot more consumers. By getting gain of existing HPC infrastructures, this initiative will allow for them to explore and capture the alternatives built achievable by quantum computing in just a few of yrs.

“At the LRZ, we are a spouse for digitalization in science. We are increasing our portfolio by integrating solutions for quantum computing. This way we enable globe-class researchers to locate new techniques to resolving grand-obstacle scientific difficulties. On the other hand, we are only at the beginning with this technological know-how. At the LRZ Quantum Integration Centre, researchers will be in a position to learn how to use it and get ready on their own for the long run of quantum computing. The collaboration with Atos and the use of the Atos Quantum Finding out Machine are an necessary creating block in our Quantum Computing strategy,” spelled out Prof. Dieter Kranzlmüller, Chairman of the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre.

“LRZ and Atos share a very pragmatic solution to quantum computing that focuses on quantum-accelerated HPC, with the intention of delivering early strategic rewards to consumers just before we totally enter the post-quantum era. The Atos QLM is a direct extension of this solution and we are honored to be 1 of the initially hardware associates of the LRZ Quantum Integration Centre. It is a excellent undertaking and marks the significant contribution built by LRZ to the quantum computing local community,” explained Elie Girard, Atos CEO.

The LRZ Quantum Integration Centre supports the Munich Quantum Valley, a central aspect of the Bavarian quantum initiative to generate quantum computing ahead at a nationwide and worldwide degree.  The partnership among Atos and LRZ is a testomony to the ambition of the Bavarian authorities to turn into an internationally aggressive quantum spot by incorporating worldwide, foremost-edge expertise, skills and systems. Subject matter to the acceptance of the condition parliament, the No cost State of Bavaria dedicated to supplying a complete of three hundred million euros.
