Thunderbird's key role in quantum computingNow: HPC bridges the gap to quantum computing
Required to validate quantum computing codes
-
Versatile all-CPU architecture applicable to all HPC-AI software, much of which does not benefit from GPUs
-
High precision, high performance, low power 64-bit native processors to solve “big math” problems required by most HPC software
-
HPC simulation codes run in parallel with quantum computing versions to validate since a very different programming model
-
…up to “jump-off” point where problem size exceeds scale of classical digital HPC systems
Future: HPC key to quantum computing in production use
Hybrid model – augmenting – not replacing
