SCA2024 -- NVIDIA today announced that
Australia’s Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre will add the
NVIDIA® CUDA Quantum platform accelerated by NVIDIA Grace Hopper™
Superchips to its National Supercomputing and Quantum Computing
Innovation Hub, furthering its work driving breakthroughs in
quantum computing.
Researchers at the Perth-based center will leverage CUDA Quantum
— an open-source hybrid quantum computing platform that features
powerful simulation tools, and capabilities to program hybrid CPU,
GPU and QPU systems — as well as, the NVIDIA cuQuantum software
development kit of optimized libraries and tools for accelerating
quantum computing workflows.
The NVIDIA Grace Hopper Superchip — which combines the NVIDIA
Grace CPU and Hopper GPU architectures — provides extreme
performance to run high-fidelity and scalable quantum simulations
on accelerators and seamlessly interface with future quantum
hardware infrastructure.
“High-performance simulation is essential for researchers to
address the biggest challenges in quantum computing — from
algorithm discovery and device design to the invention of powerful
methods for error correction, calibration and control,” said Tim
Costa, director of HPC and quantum computing at NVIDIA. “CUDA
Quantum, together with the NVIDIA Grace Hopper Superchip, allows
innovators such as Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre to achieve
these essential breakthroughs and accelerate the timeline to useful
quantum-integrated supercomputing.”
“Pawsey Supercomputing Centre’s research and test-bed facility
is helping to advance scientific exploration for all of Australia
as well as the world,” said Mark Stickells, executive director at
the Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre. “NVIDIA’s CUDA Quantum
platform will allow our scientists to push the boundaries of what’s
possible in quantum computing research.”
Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO (Commonwealth
Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation), estimates the
domestic market opportunity from quantum computing to be worth $2.5
billion annually in revenue, with the potential to create 10,000
new jobs by 2040. Achieving this will require quantum computing to
be embedded in other scientific domains, with applications in
astronomy, life sciences, medicine, finance and more.
Pushing the Boundaries of Quantum Computing
Pawsey will deploy the system to run quantum workloads directly
from traditional high performance computing systems, leveraging
their processing power and developing hybrid algorithms that
intelligently divide calculations into classical and quantum
kernels, using the quantum device to improve computing efficiency.
Quantum machine learning, chemistry simulations, image processing
for radio astronomy, financial analysis, bioinformatics and
specialized quantum simulators will be studied, starting with
various quantum variational algorithms.
Pawsey is deploying eight NVIDIA Grace Hopper Superchip nodes
based on NVIDIA MGX™ modular architecture. GH200 Superchips
eliminate the need for a traditional CPU-to-GPU PCIe connection by
combining an Arm-based NVIDIA Grace™ CPU with an NVIDIA H100 Tensor
Core GPU in the same package, using NVIDIA NVLink™-C2C chip
interconnects.
This increases the bandwidth between GPU and CPU by 7x compared
with the latest PCIe technology. It delivers up to 10x higher
performance for applications running terabytes of data, giving
quantum-classical researchers unprecedented power to solve the
world’s most complex problems.
Pawsey is committed to making the NVIDIA Grace Hopper platform
available to the Australian quantum community, as well as its
international partners.
