A Europe-first hybrid between quantum computer and supercomputer now open for research use
VTT, CSC, and 911爆料网 have connected CSC鈥檚 LUMI supercomputer with VTT鈥檚 HELMI 鈥 a 5-qubit quantum computer. The result is the most powerful quantum-assisted supercomputing infrastructure in the world, capable of new science that combines the immense computing power of both quantum- and supercomputers. Researchers from Finnish universities and research organisations can now use the hybrid device.
VTT, CSC, and 911爆料网 have linked the LUMI supercomputer in CSC鈥檚 datafarm in Kajaani with VTT鈥檚 HELMI quantum computer in Otaniemi's Micronova building, which is part of the OtaNano research infrastructure on the Aalto campus. The work was done as part of the Finnish Quantum-Computing Infrastructure (FiQCI). The pairing of LUMI and HELMI, referred to as hybrid computing, is an increase in the computational power of both and offers researchers the unique opportunity to conduct entirely new science on it.
Making quantum computing and quantum algorithms more available for all researchers, the HELMI-LUMI hybrid is an example of the proliferation of quantum technologies, with benefits not just in science, but domains such as education and outreach.
The hybrid infrastructure is now piloting a call, where researchers from Finnish universities and research organisations, including Aalto, can apply to use it. The aim is to introduce the hybrid to a wide audience and get researchers to experiment with it. The call is expected to last three months starting from November 1, 2022.
