SUMMARY:Seeking Quantum Supremacy with Numerical Simulation
DESCRIPTION:Exhibitor Forum\nArchitectures, Quantum Computing\n\nSeeking Q
 uantum Supremacy with Numerical Simulation\n\nALLOUCHE\n\nQuantum Computin
 g promises to tackle computations which are intractable for today’s superc
 omputers. Among the expected beneficiaries: numerical analysis, artificial
  intelligence, chemistry... Though, most of the known quantum algorithms u
 nderlying these applications require *perfect* qubits. That is fully conne
 cted, unlimited coherence time, perfect fidelity. Designing such ideal qub
 its is a tremendous challenge for Science and Technology, and could requir
 e a decade or more. In the meantime, the “NISQ” era (Noisy-Intermediate-Sc
 ale-Quantum) is coming, with devices with 100+ *imperfect* qubits. To take
  the most of these intermediate hardwares, brand new algorithms must be in
 vented, as noise-tolerant and resource-efficient as possible. Numerical mo
 deling and simulation of these imperfect qubits can provide an invaluable 
 tool to take on this NISQ challenge. The Atos Quantum Learning Machine (QL
 M) embeds the state of the art of these techniques. I will introduce, and 
 live-demo them during the talk, on a real and self-illustrating use case.
