NVIDIA plans to build the NVIDIA Accelerated Quantum Research Center (NVAQC) in Boston to advance quantum computing by integrating leading quantum hardware with AI supercomputers.
NVAQC will enable accelerated quantum supercomputing, tackling some of quantum computing’s most significant challenges, such as qubit noise and transforming experimental processors into practical devices.
It will collaborate with prominent quantum computing innovators, including Quantinuum, Quantum Machines and QuEra Computing, alongside researchers from top universities such as Harvard and MIT. The centre will utilise NVIDIA’s GB200 NVL72 rack-scale systems that will facilitate complex simulations and the deployment of low-latency quantum hardware control algorithms essential for quantum error correction.
NVIDIA’s CUDA-Q quantum development platform will be employed to address the integration challenges of GPU and QPU hardware, allowing researchers to develop new hybrid quantum algorithms and applications.
NVAQC is expected to begin operations later this year and will play a crucial role in advancing quantum computing research, particularly in areas such as quantum error correction and hybrid application development.
“Quantum computing will augment AI supercomputers to tackle some of the world’s most important problems, from drug discovery to materials development. Working with the wider quantum research community to advance CUDA-quantum hybrid computing, the NVIDIA Accelerated Quantum Research Center is where breakthroughs will be made to create large-scale, useful, accelerated quantum supercomputers,” said Jensen Huang, Founder and CEO of NVIDIA.
