The National Quantum Computing Hub (NQCH) is among more than a dozen supercomputing centres across the globe adopting NVIDIA NVQLink – an interconnect to couple quantum processors with classical computers.
The news was announced by NVIDIA on 17 November during the high-performance computing conference SC25 in St Louis, Missouri in the United States.
“In the future, supercomputers will be quantum-GPU systems — combining the unique strengths of each: the quantum computer’s ability to simulate nature and the GPU’s programmability and massive parallelism,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “NVQLink with CUDA-Q is the gateway to that future — uniting quantum and GPU computing into a single, coherent system to push the frontier of what’s computable and unlocking new scientific discoveries.”
Earlier this month, Quantinuum announced with Singapore’s National Quantum Office and NQCH that Singapore will be the first country outside of the United States to host a Helios system – its new 98-qubit processor with industry-leading fidelity.
Quantinuum has also announced that its latest Helios QPU, and future generations of its quantum processors, will be integrated with NVIDIA GPUs through NVQLink to orchestrate quantum error correction.
NVQLink was designed in collaboration with quantum processor and controller builders, as well as supercomputing centres across the world.
That has included inputs from Singapore. Dr Ye Jun, Principal Scientist at A*STAR Institute of High Performance Computing (A*STAR IHPC), is a co-author with NVIDIA collaborators on a preprint whitepaper that describes the architecture for NVQLink.
The National Quantum Computing Hub is a joint initiative of A*STAR IHPC, Singapore’s Centre for Quantum Technologies and the National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) Singapore. NSCC already hosts supercomputers using NVIDIA systems for accelerated computing.
The hub’s roles include providing access to quantum computers and simulators and working on hybrid quantum-classical applications.
