!Practical Aspects of Building a Software Stack for Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum Devices
::Introduction
* "Quntum Computation and Quntum Information"
* "Quntum Computing for the Determined" - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1826E60FD05B44E4
* "A Gentle Introduction"
* http://www.theory.caltech.edu/~preskill/ph219/ph219_2017

::Qunatum Computing Software Stack: Hardware Technologies
* Three Main Directions
** 2-Level Quntum Systems (cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-state_quantum_system)
*** many players
** Toplogical Qubits (cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_quantum_computer)
*** mainly microsft/delft
** Quantum Qnnealers
*** mainly D-Wave
* Gate Sets in Superconducting Chips
** Compilers to translate gates sets, do mapping
* Take Away
** Hardware technologies are far from dtermined
*** no clear front runner
*** no clear path for scaling up
** near-term(-10 years)
*** noise, noise, noise, ...
*** small width and depth
** software stack should target actual hardware operations
*** textbook gate set based on theory of the '90s, real hardware differs
::Quantum Benchmark - Dar Dahlen
* Why make a Qutnum Proc:
** Use quantum for it's computational capabilities
*** chemistry, materials science, machine learning, optimization, ...
* The error problem for Quantum
** digital computing is discrete & predictable:
** Quantum computing is continuous & error-prone:
* Error Types
** rotation erros
** non-rotation errors
*** spontaneous bit flip (T1 Decay most common, 1 to 0)
*** dechoherence (Qubit vector drifting in time, T2)
* Quntifying erros
** randomized benchmarking
** gate set tomography
** interleaved randomized benchmarking
** cycle benchmarking
::Rondomized Compiling (RC)
RC helps to mitigates errors, it is not error correction
!Workshop on Datacenter Resource Disaggregation
:: Keynote: Sharad Singhal, HP -- The Machine―Memory-Driven Computing
* GEN-Z https://genzconsortium.org/
* HPE Superdome Flex
* OpenFAM: programming model for fabric-attached memory
** cf. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/331836860_The_OpenFAM_API_A_Programming_Model_for_Disaggregated_Persistent_Memory
** cf. https://github.com/FabricAttachedMemory
* MDC Programming Opportunities
** data sharing in one large globally-addressable memory
*** pass by reference
*** multi-process - share large pool of data in shared memory
*** use global shared memory for messaging
** focus on in-memory data formats
*** file system vs database vs direct use of byte-addressable persistent memory
*** opportunity to move away from having multiple data formats in memory and storage; single data format used as both in-memory representation and data storage
*** reduce number of software layers -- simpler to develop and maintain software
* MDC Programming Challenges
** practicalities of using new tech.
*** accessing memory
*** allocating and managing memory
** data consistency in face of failures
