NVIDIA Powers Japan’s ABCI-Q Supercomputer for Quantum Research
18 Março 2024 - 7:00PM
GTC—NVIDIA today announced that Japan’s new ABCI-Q
supercomputer — designed to advance the nation’s quantum computing
initiative — will be powered by NVIDIA platforms for accelerated
and quantum computing.
ABCI-Q will enable high-fidelity quantum simulations for
research across industries. The high-performance, scalable system
is integrated with NVIDIA® CUDA-Q™, an open-source hybrid quantum
computing platform with powerful simulation tools and capabilities
to program hybrid quantum-classical systems. The supercomputer is
powered by more than 2,000 NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPUs in 500+
nodes interconnected by NVIDIA Quantum-2 InfiniBand, the world’s
only fully offloadable, in-network computing platform.
Built by Fujitsu at the Global Research and Development center
for Business by Quantum-AI Technology (G-QuAT) National Institute
of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) ABCI
supercomputing center, ABCI-Q is expected to be deployed early next
year and is designed for integration with future quantum
hardware.
“Researchers need high-performance simulation to tackle the most
difficult problems in quantum computing,” said Tim Costa, director
of high performance computing and quantum computing at NVIDIA.
“CUDA-Q and the NVIDIA H100 equip pioneers such as those at ABCI to
make critical advances and speed the development of
quantum-integrated supercomputing.”
“ABCI-Q will let Japanese researchers explore quantum computing
technology to test and accelerate the development of its practical
applications,” said Masahiro Horibe, deputy director of
G-QuAT/AIST. “The NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform and NVIDIA H100 will help
these scientists pursue the next frontiers of quantum computing
research.”
ABCI-Q is part of Japan’s quantum technology innovation
strategy, which aims to create new opportunities for businesses and
society to benefit from quantum technology, including through
research in AI, energy and biology.
The ABCI-Q system is intended to be a platform for the
advancement of quantum circuit simulation and quantum machine
learning, the building of classical-quantum hybrid systems, and the
development of new algorithms inspired by quantum technology.
NVIDIA and G-QuAT/AIST also plan to collaborate on industrial
applications using ABCI-Q.
