Sibling Rivalry: How Super Computing might compete and/or cooperate with Quantum

Sibling Rivalry – A look at how Super Computing might compete and/or cooperate with its Quantum cousin.

Seems that every conversation about Quantum computing includes a comparison to High Powered Computing. Soon Quantum will be beyond the reach of even the most powerful classical computers. To gain a better understanding of where the technologies converge & where they compete, let's spend a little time to get a base line understanding of today's HPC landscape.

What we'll cover:

Intro to HPC

What makes an HPC machine HPC

Metrics that matter for HPC:
PFLOPs, Networking, Storage, Speeds...

Who's doing HPC & practical applications

Where is it all going?
