Atos and CSC empower the Finnish quantum research community with Atos Quantum Learning Machine

Paris, 19 Could 2020

Atos, a world-wide leader in digital transformation, right now announces it has sent its Atos Quantum Learning Equipment, the world’s maximum-doing commercially obtainable quantum simulator, to CSC – IT Heart for Science. The thirty-qubit Atos Quantum Learning Equipment – called Kvasi – provides the Finnish science and study neighborhood the indicates to get ready for the approaching era of quantum computing.

This announcement marks a new phase in the partnership concerning Atos and CSC, which was initiated in 2018 with the signing of a contract for a supercomputer primarily based on Atos’ architecture.

Now with the Atos QLM30, CSC provides with each other buyers from academia and sector, in get to get expertise and produce additional experience in the industry of quantum computing. Atos QLM enables the advanced research of programs of quantum idea, thereby building new systems and remedies for a huge range of difficulties.

“Kvasi will carry a novel and interesting addition to CSC’s computing atmosphere. The quantum processor simulator enables finding out and design and style of quantum algorithms, supported by an ambitious person application. All stop-buyers of CSC’s computing products and services will have obtain to Kvasi”, says Dr. Pekka Manninen, Software Director, CSC.

The Atos QLM is a quantum simulation platform that consists of an available programming atmosphere, optimization modules to adapt the code to specific quantum components constraints, and simulators that make it possible for buyers to take a look at their algorithms and visualize their computation success. This enables for practical simulation of existing and long run quantum processing units, which suffer from quantum sounds, quantum decoherence, and production biases. General performance bottlenecks can hence be identified and circumvented.

“We are happy to be identified by CSC as a reliable partner and to demonstrate our ongoing dedication to the competitiveness of the Finnish study and tutorial neighborhood. The Atos Quantum Learning Equipment will make it possible for researchers, engineers and learners to produce and experiment with quantum software program with out getting to wait for quantum equipment to be obtainable”, says Harri Saikkonen, Taking care of Director, Atos in the Nordics.

Finland is at the forefront of quantum study. In 2016, Finnish and American researchers were being the initially in the earth to observe and tie a quantum knot, using CSC pcs to push crucial simulations. In 2020, researchers from CSC, Aalto University and Åbo Akademi and their collaborators from Boston University, demonstrated for the initially time how the sounds impacts on quantum computing in a systematic way.

In November 2016, Atos released an ambitious application to foresee the long run of quantum computing and to be prepared for the prospects as perfectly as the threats that appear with it. As a result of this initiative, Atos was the initially to successfully design quantum sounds. To date, the company has mounted Quantum Learning Equipment in a lot of nations including Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, the Uk, the United States and Japan empowering main study applications in numerous sectors, this sort of as sector or vitality.
