A Hands-On Introduction to Quantum Computing with NVIDIA’s CUDA Quantum 05/10/24 - 02:30 PM - 04:00 PM EDT

Quantum computing leverages the quantum aspects of the physical world to introduce novel methods of information processing. These methods can be combined with classical high-performance computing to build scalable and performant applications. In this hands-on workshop, we will explore the fundamentals of quantum computing and apply them to construct quantum applications. As future workloads are anticipated to be mostly hybrid, the workshop will also introduce tools for interfacing quantum and classical components through a commonly used variational quantum algorithm workflow.

COMPLECS: Interactive Computing 04/18/24 - 02:00 PM - 03:30 PM EDT

Interactive computing refers to working with software that accepts input from the user as it runs. This applies not only to business and office applications, such as word processing and spreadsheet software, but HPC use cases involving code development, real-time data exploration and advanced visualizations run across one or more compute nodes. Interactive computing is often used when applications require large memory, have large data sets that are not that practical to download to local devices, need access to higher core counts, or rely on software that is difficult to install.

ACES: MATLAB 04/16/24 - 02:30 PM - 05:00 PM EDT
