Large Scale Quantum Simulation with Qaptiva
By Cyril Allouche, VP R&D Quantum, Eviden

HPC is an essential relay, if not the relay, for quantum computing, in order to accelerate the development of use cases as well as the convergence with classical computing infrastructures. First of all, because the current state of quantum technologies does not allow the experimentation of computational programs of relevant size. Only the numerical simulation of quantum computing makes it possible to address problems beyond a dozen qubits. Secondly, because the characteristics of quantum computing make it an accelerator, called upon to effectively support classical architectures, and not to replace them. In this talk, we will show how the Qaptiva solutions address this double convergence of HPC for quantum and quantum for HPC.

Biography: Cyril Allouche is the Director of Research and Development (R&D) in Quantum Computing at Eviden. Cyril Allouche is a qualified engineer, holding a degree from Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, as well as a PhD in Computer Science from University of Paris Sud. Cyril has been responsible for Research and Innovation at Eviden, an Atos company since 2013, and has been leading Atos' Quantum R&D program since its inception in late 2015. Cyril plays a pivotal role in advancing the field of quantum computing and his vision extends to infrastructure convergence, constructing frameworks that integrate quantum computing with high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud solutions. As Eviden continues to thrive in the HPC and quantum computing domains, Cyril Allouche remains at the forefront of innovation, driving the convergence of cutting-edge technologies and shaping the future of computational possibilities. He is also an inventor of 13 patents.
