LUMI-Q
DeiC participates in the LUMI-Q consortium under EuroHPC JU, who is working on establishing a quantum computer to benefit research in Europe.
A quantum computer for research in Europe
DeiC is participating in the international LUMI-Q project, which is establishing a quantum computer in the Czech Republic at the IT4Innovations National Supercomputing Center in Ostrava. The quantum computer is expected to become operational in 2024 and will be available to researchers across Europe.
The quantum computer will be based on superconducting qubits and directly connected to the EuroHPC supercomputer KAROLINA as well as other EuroHPC facilities such as LUMI in Finland. The project combines supercomputers with quantum technology to advance research and innovation in fields such as quantum chemistry, cryptography, artificial intelligence, and more.
The LUMI-Q consortium consists of nine European countries, including Denmark. The project has a budget of up to 7 million euros, half of which is covered by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking under the Digital Europe Programme, with the other half funded by the member states of the LUMI-Q consortium.
