SUMMARY:Quantum Computers: The New Supercomputer Partition
DESCRIPTION:Alba Cervera-Lierta (Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC))\n\
 nIn the last decade, the quantum computing field has advanced from theory 
 and university lab experiments to operational computing machines developed
  by several companies and startups. Even in these early development stages
 , quantum computers are becoming increasingly popular among several scient
 ific and industrial users who want to test their real performance and adap
 t their solutions to this new programming paradigm. To control and operate
  quantum devices, one needs traditional computation: the quantum operation
 s instructions and the quantum processing unit (QPU) readout are orchestra
 ted by a "classical" computer. On top of that, there are no purely quantum
  algorithms, since several pre- and post-processing algorithmic subroutine
 s require traditional computation. All these facts lead us to integrate qu
 antum computers with classical computers, extending the supercomputer's ca
 pabilities by enabling a new chip technology. This talk will address the q
 uantum-HPC integration roadmap: the motivation, methods, challenges, and o
 pportunities. It will also summarize the experience that Barcelona Superco
 mputing Center is gaining with the installation, operation, and integratio
 n of two quantum computers on-premise.\n\nRegistration Category: Tech Prog
