Quantum Computing in the Era of Heterogeneity: What Is the Role of Quantum When We Have So Many Accelerators? Can Quantum Work Together with Other Accelerators? What Are the Applications?
DescriptionQuantum computing is a growing accelerator technology with more computing centers investigating the use of such systems as part of their long-term HPC strategy. However, while the potential computational power of quantum computers for targeted problems is generally accepted in the HPC and QC communities, concrete application use cases are still a rarity. At the same time, there is a plethora of accelerators in this "Era of Heterogeneity." For this panel, we have invited five experts from different areas, backgrounds, and regions. All are investigating the feasibility and opportunities found in different acceleration approaches. We will discuss with them how they see the accelerator landscape developing and what the role of quantum is. With this panel, we aim to provide a realistic picture of where quantum should be in the field of acceleration and what applications are relevant, thereby offering the audience a well-founded picture based on first-hand experiences.
