What the project is about

The aim of HPCQS is to prepare European research, industry and society for the use and federal operation of quantum computers and simulators. HPCQS strives to develop, deploy and coordinate a European federated infrastructure, tightly integrating two quantum simulators each controlling about 100+ qubits (quantum bits). The seamless integration of quantum hardware with classical computing resources, creating a hybrid system, is an essential step forward to utilize the power of quantum computers for handling first practical applications. These are future computing technologies that are promising to overcome the most difficult computational challenges.

To achieve these goals, HPCQS brings together leading quantum and supercomputer experts from science and industry from six European countries. HPCQS will become an incubator for practical quantum HPC hybrid computing that is unique in the world.
