On Monday, our colleague and expert in quantum technologies, Piotr Rydlichowski, took part in a workshop on Innovating the Network for Data Intensive Science (#INDIS) and highlighted the advancements in high-speed networking of this year SC24′ Network Research Exhibition (#NRE – Network Research Exhibitions) powered by SCinet.

World’s First Multi-QPU, Multi-GPU, Multi-CPU Quantum Use Case Demonstration

2024-11-18

In a groundbreaking project, Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center (PSNC) in Poland has worked with NVIDIA and ORCA Computing to demonstrate the world’s first hybrid computing architecture at PSNC involving a multi-user HPC environment supporting multiple quantum processing units (QPUs), alongside multi-GPU and multi-CPU job execution. PSNC researchers have also trained a hybrid classical-quantum machine learning algorithm within this environment. This work is a first step toward demonstrating the importance of integrating QPUs into hybrid classical-quantum supercomputing environments.

Pathfinder – A Brand New Fibre Optic Link Between PTB and PSNC

2024-11-01

The installation of the pathfinder link between the German National Metrology Institute (PTB) in Braunschweig and the Poznań Supercomputing and Networking Center (PSNC) was successfully completed. It is likely the first link of the entire network of European connections dedicated to time and frequency transfer (promoted by GÉANT as part of the C-TFN). The installation itself went very smoothly and was completed just a week after the fiber was delivered on the German side.
