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

Munich and Paris, March 18, 2021

Atos right now announced that it has shipped its Atos Quantum Understanding Machine (Atos QLM), the world’s optimum-doing commercially readily available quantum simulator, to the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ), of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The Atos QLM is put in in the a short while ago opened LRZ Quantum Integration Centre (QIC), Bavaria’s preeminent computing facility. The center was intended to bring practical quantum apps to the scientific community by advancing the convergence of quantum computing and supercomputing.

The LRZ is between the to start with computing facilities worldwide to concentration on the integration of quantum computing in an HPC environment with its Quantum Integration Centre. The hybrid quantum-HPC solution reveals sizeable guarantees in properly applying today’s classical pcs to harness the electrical power of near-term quantum apps. Leveraging each the Atos QLM and its collaboration with essential gamers like Atos, the Finnish-German startup IQM and other companions, LRZ will be in a position to make quantum systems readily available to far more people. By getting gain of present HPC infrastructures, this initiative will enable them to explore and capture the alternatives designed probable by quantum computing within just a pair of several years.

“At the LRZ, we are a spouse for digitalization in science. We are expanding our portfolio by integrating services for quantum computing. This way we allow environment-class researchers to come across new techniques to solving grand-problem scientific complications. Nonetheless, we are only at the beginning with this technological know-how. At the LRZ Quantum Integration Centre, scientists will be in a position to study how to use it and prepare on their own for the long term of quantum computing. The collaboration with Atos and the use of the Atos Quantum Understanding Machine are an crucial creating block in our Quantum Computing strategy,” explained Prof. Dieter Kranzlmüller, Chairman of the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre.

“LRZ and Atos share a pretty pragmatic solution to quantum computing that focuses on quantum-accelerated HPC, with the aim of delivering early strategic added benefits to people ahead of we thoroughly enter the put up-quantum era. The Atos QLM is a immediate extension of this solution and we are honored to be just one of the to start with hardware companions of the LRZ Quantum Integration Centre. It is a superb project and marks the sizeable contribution designed by LRZ to the quantum computing community,” mentioned Elie Girard, Atos CEO.

The LRZ Quantum Integration Centre supports the Munich Quantum Valley, a central factor of the Bavarian quantum initiative to drive quantum computing forward at a nationwide and intercontinental amount.  The partnership amongst Atos and LRZ is a testament to the ambition of the Bavarian authorities to become an internationally competitive quantum place by incorporating intercontinental, leading-edge awareness, techniques and systems. Subject to the acceptance of the state parliament, the No cost Condition of Bavaria dedicated to providing a total of three hundred million euros.
