Quantum Brilliance (QB) has announced a strategic collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to integrate QB’s diamond-based quantum accelerators with ORNL’s high-performance computing (HPC) systems. This partnership aims to advance parallel and hybrid quantum computing, exploring how quantum and classical processors can work together to tackle complex problems that current classical computing cannot solve alone.

The collaboration will focus on developing new computational methods and software tools that will enable users to leverage the combined power of quantum and classical computing. By integrating quantum accelerators into ORNL’s HPC infrastructure, the project seeks to pioneer advancements that will shape the future of computing and HPC system design. A key feature for this collaboration that will be explored will be parallel quantum computing, having multiple quantum processors work together to solve a problem.

This joint effort underscores the commitment of both organizations to push the boundaries of scientific research and computational capabilities. The inclusion of quantum technology in HPC systems represents a significant step toward practical quantum applications and the future of massively parallelized quantum computing. Quantum Brilliance’s work in this collaboration is supported by the ACT Government, reflecting the importance of this project in advancing quantum computing technology globally.
