How can algorithms, software, and machine designs make 100–1000-qubit quantum devices practical for real scientific problems? The EPiQC expedition develops new algorithms and software tailored to 100–1000 quantum-bit devices to reduce the gap between algorithms and architectures. The group studies quantum software and machine designs alongside experiments to align algorithms with device-specific properties and to enable practical quantum computations. Researchers design and analyze emerging computing technologies, including multicore and embedded architectures, while exploring sustainability and security trade-offs in systems. The group leads multidisciplinary projects combining architecture, algorithms, and quantum device considerations to facilitate scalable quantum and high-performance computing.
