TITLE: Six countries selected to host future European quantum computers
CONTENT: The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JC) had announced the the selection of six sites across the EU to host and operate the first EuroHPC quantum computers: Czechia, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, and Spain. The quantum computing systems to be developed within these sites are to be made available to European users (scientific communities, industry, the public sector, etc.) mainly for research and development purposes.
For background, the EuroHPC JU is a legal and funding entity launched in 2018 to enable the EU and countries participating in the EuroHPC to coordinate efforts and resources towards developing supercomputing facilities in the EU.

TITLE: GSMA, IBM, and Vodafone launch Post-Quantum Telco Network Taskforce
CONTENT: GSMA, IBM, and Vodafone have launched a Post-Quantum Telco Network Taskforce to contribute to the definition of policies, regulations, and business processes for the protection of telecommunication in the context of advanced quantum computing. According to GSMA, the taskforce will help define requirements, identify dependencies, and create the roadmap to implement quantum-safe networking, mitigating the risks associated with future, more-powerful quantum computers. Activities to be undertaken by the taskforce will focus on three areas: (a) strategy: integrating quantum-safe capabilities into telecom network operators’ technology, business processes; and security; (b) standardisation: identifying the needs and common alignments for the integration of quantum-safe capabilities into existing telecom networks; and (c) policy: advising on public policy, regulation, and compliance matters.
TOPICS: Telecom infra, emerging tech
TRENDS: Quantum

Where a classical bit in today’s computers carries out a series of logical operations starting from one of either two states, 0 or 1, a qubit can exist in a superposition of both states. While in this delicate in-between state, a qubit should be able to simultaneously communicate with many other qubits and process multiple streams of information at a time, to quickly solve problems that would take classical computers years to process.

MIT physicists have discovered a new quantum bit, or “qubit,” in the form of vibrating pairs of atoms known as fermions.

Entanglement forging could markedly expand the computational power of quantum systems
advantage of entanglement forging: expand the computational power of quantum systems (and using less qubits)
-
Entanglement forging, it turns out, involves the use of a classical computer to capture quantum correlations and effectively split the problem in half, making it possible to separate the 10 spin-orbitals of the into two groups of five that could be processed separately. This doubles the size of the system that can be simulated on quantum hardware.
