🏆 New Record on JUPITER: Simulating a 50-Qubit #Quantum Computer!
A research team at the JSC, together with experts from NVIDIA, has set a new record: for the first time, a universal quantum computer with 5️⃣ 0️⃣ qubits has been fully simulated on Europe's first Exascale supercomputer #exa_jupiter.
Ein neuer Rekord! 🌟🚀 Wir haben auf unserem Superrechner #exa_JUPITER einen 50-Qubit-Quantencomputer simuliert
Ein Forschungsteam des @fzj_jsc hat mit Expert:innen von #nvidia einen neuen Simulationsrekord aufgestellt: Erstmals ist es gelungen, das Verhalten eines universellen Quantencomputers mit 50 Qubits vollständig auf einem klassischen #Supercomputer zu simulieren. Für diese rechenintensive Aufgabe kam Europas erster Exascale-Supercomputer zum Einsatz.
My #SC25 is quite busy again this year. When I'm not contributing (see below), visiting vendors, or staffing our @fzj_jsc booth, I try to see as many sessions as possible (why are there so many interesting talks? And all at the same time!).
Contributions:
- Sunday: Multi-GPU Tutorial
- Monday: WACCPD Workshop
- Tuesday: Gordon Bell Climate Prize Paper (not presenting)
- Wednesday: IXPUG BoF on Perf Portability
- Friday: HPCTESTS Workshop
- More, depending on things…
What does it look like to build a Modular Supercomputer like #exa_jupiter ⚡ in a Modular Data Centre❓
