JHPC quantum project for Quantum-HPC hybrid computing platform

As the number of qubits in advanced quantum computers is getting larger over 100 qubits, demands for the integration of quantum computers and HPC are gradually growing. RIKEN R-CCS has been working on several projects to build a platform which integrates quantum computers and HPC together. Recently, we have started the JHPC quantum project to design and build a quantum-supercomputer hybrid computing platform which integrates different kinds of quantum computers, superconducting quantum computer from IBM and trapped-ion quantum computer from Quantinuum, with supercomputers including Fugaku. In this presentation, the overview and plan of the JHPC quantum project with a perspective of quantum HPC hybrid computing will be presented.
