Atos delivers its first GPU-accelerated Quantum Learning Machine to the Irish Centre for High-End Computing (ICHEC)

Dublin, Eire and Paris, France – seventeen December 2020

Atos currently announces it will provide its initial GPU-accelerated Atos Quantum Mastering Device Increased (Atos QLM E), the world’s maximum-carrying out commercially out there quantum simulator, to the Irish Centre for Substantial-Finish Computing (ICHEC).

The Atos QLM E will be integrated with the Irish countrywide supercomputer ‘Kay’ and equipped with a assortment of quantum software package programming equipment. As a hybrid HPC-Quantum Computing environment, the integrated Kay-Atos QLM E platform will serve the Quantum Programming Eire (QPI) Initiative for conducting R&D and countrywide-degree competencies progress pursuits in quantum technologies by ICHEC as well as other Irish businesses in tutorial, business and public sector.

Featuring up to twelve moments additional computation speed than the first 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 Eire is a husband or wife together with eleven other European firms and exploration labs, and coordinated by Atos.

As soon as the Atos QLM E is shipped on-premise, Atos will deliver a fast-monitor education software and carry on to improve the process during its lifetime to ensure that it provides the operation expected in this fast-moving self-discipline of quantum computing.

Prof. Jean-Christophe (“JC”) Desplat, Director at ICHEC, said: “As Ireland’s high performance computing authority, we’re fully commited to utilizing the power of know-how to fix some of the toughest troubles throughout public, tutorial and business sectors. Doing the job with a number of companions throughout Europe, we search ahead to utilizing the Atos QLM E associated for R&D on a number of scientific and marketplace-applicable quantum computing use-cases and supporting scientific breakthroughs in high-performance computing.”

Agnès Boudot, Senior Vice President, Head of HPC & Quantum at Atos, said: “As the initial Atos QLM E deployed globally, this partnership marks an crucial milestone in our Quantum Program. We search ahead to supporting ICHEC on their quantum journey, encouraging them discover with their people the large possible that quantum computing features. The option will deliver a scalable, foreseeable future-evidence, countrywide framework for the porting of hybrid applications, and for the education and competencies progress of Irish scientists, and ICHEC’s companions throughout Europe.”

Atos QLM E has been optimized to considerably cut down the simulation time of hybrid classical-quantum algorithms simulations, foremost to more rapidly progress in software exploration.

Atos, a pioneer in quantum

In 2016, Atos launched ‘Atos Quantum’ an formidable software to foresee the foreseeable future of quantum computing. As a consequence of this initiative, Atos was the initial organization to offer you a quantum sounds simulation module in just its Atos QLM offer you. Atos QLM is staying applied in many international locations throughout the world including Austria, Finland, France, Germany, India,  Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Senegal, UK and the United States, empowering important exploration programs in a variety of sectors like marketplace or electricity. A short while ago, Atos launched “Q-score”, the initial universal quantum metrics reference, applicable to all programmable quantum processors.
