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

Paris, 19 May 2020

Atos, a world-wide leader in electronic transformation, today announces it has shipped its Atos Quantum Studying Device, the world’s greatest-undertaking commercially readily available quantum simulator, to CSC – IT Middle for Science. The thirty-qubit Atos Quantum Studying Device – named Kvasi – offers the Finnish science and investigate neighborhood the implies to get ready for the approaching period of quantum computing.

This announcement marks a new stage in the partnership in between 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 business, in order to purchase expertise and build further more abilities in the area of quantum computing. Atos QLM allows the sophisticated research of apps of quantum idea, therefore producing new systems and answers for a vast vary of issues.

“Kvasi will carry a novel and interesting addition to CSC’s computing atmosphere. The quantum processor simulator allows mastering and style of quantum algorithms, supported by an formidable person method. All end-buyers of CSC’s computing products and services will have obtain to Kvasi”, states Dr. Pekka Manninen, Plan Director, CSC.

The Atos QLM is a quantum simulation platform that consists of an accessible programming atmosphere, optimization modules to adapt the code to targeted quantum components constraints, and simulators that allow for buyers to take a look at their algorithms and visualize their computation success. This will allow for sensible simulation of current and long term quantum processing models, which undergo from quantum sound, quantum decoherence, and production biases. Efficiency bottlenecks can hence be discovered and circumvented.

“We are very pleased to be identified by CSC as a reliable husband or wife and to demonstrate our ongoing determination to the competitiveness of the Finnish investigate and academic neighborhood. The Atos Quantum Studying Device will allow for scientists, engineers and students to build and experiment with quantum program with no acquiring to wait around for quantum machines to be readily available”, states Harri Saikkonen, Controlling Director, Atos in the Nordics.

Finland is at the forefront of quantum investigate. In 2016, Finnish and American scientists ended up the initially in the globe to notice and tie a quantum knot, working with CSC personal computers to generate essential simulations. In 2020, scientists from CSC, Aalto College and Åbo Akademi and their collaborators from Boston College, shown for the initially time how the sound impacts on quantum computing in a systematic way.

In November 2016, Atos introduced an formidable method to anticipate the long term of quantum computing and to be well prepared for the possibilities as properly as the risks that arrive with it. As a outcome of this initiative, Atos was the initially to successfully model quantum sound. To day, the corporation has set up Quantum Studying Equipment in numerous countries including Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, the Uk, the United States and Japan empowering major investigate packages in a variety of sectors, these kinds of as business or electrical power.
