#Supercomputing, #quantumcomputing and #artificialintelligence: these are the topics of the EuroHPC Summit 2025 of EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) in Krakow's congress centre. Colleagues from the LRZ sent us some impressions of the summit, they are presenting #EuroQExa, a hybrid quantum computer that will be made available to researchers from Europe this year. The future of #HPC - and Europe's independence in digital matters - will also be discussed in Poland. These are the trends that are being discussed intensively:
⭐ Europe should step up its efforts in the areas of #HPC, #quantum and #AI. these technologies are fuelling and accelerating each other. The LRZ has been integrating these technologies for some time
⭐ The establishment of the planned #AIFactories promotes technical sovereignty because it allows European AI applications to be created according to European values. The LRZ is involved in the AI Factory #HammerHAI
⭐ Europe promotes various quantum technologies and is therefore at the forefront of research and development. The integration of quantum processors, which is also being driven forward at the LRZ, will bring this #futuretechnology into everyday scientific life more quickly.
⭐ The competition never sleeps: quantum computing is developing dynamically and Europe should accelerate its efforts.
⭐ Supercomputing is differentiating itself and becoming more complex as a result: heterogeneous systems are changing the handling and software is becoming more important. The LRZ has always explored HPC holistically and has integrated this perspective into its strategy.
⭐ The energy efficiency of supercomputers is and remains a major issue, especially when they are also used to run energy-intensive AI methods: the topic has long been on the agenda and the LRZ is involved in many research projects.
