Bavarian Quantum Computing eXchange
Where Quantum Computing and Supercomputing Meet
Quantum computer extensions for Exascale HPC (Q-Exa)
In this presentation we will give an overview of the Q-Exa project in which an IQM quantum computer is integrated into the HPC environment of the Leibniz Rechenzentrum (LRZ). We discuss the benefits of hybrid classical/quantum computing and how we will address the technical implications.
Dr. Jan Goetz
