A great day of talks last Friday at the CCP-QC Quantum Algorithms day in Warwick. A great selection of talks. The flash talks showed the range of work aready being done. Well done everyone! 👏👏👏 #quantum #quantumcomputing #algorithms @cosec-ukri.bsky.social
Looking forward to today's CCP-QC Quantum Algorithms Day at @warwickuni.bsky.social #algorithms #Quantum #QuantumAlgorithms @cosec-ukri.bsky.social
Our colleagues are part of two sessions this afternoon at #CIUK25: - Overview of the NetworkPlus Programme - From ExCALIBUR to DRI, linking the UK's compute programmes. They're also at the stands for CAKE and ARCHER2-Cirrus. Come and say hello! edin.ac/4pR8dpL
The ExCALIBUR/DRI session at #CIUK2025 is continuing with talks from current DRI projects. We have SCALE-UP, SHAREing, NFCS and CaSDaR on stage.
#CIUK next talk from Hubert Naguszewski (Warwick) on numerical simulation of alloys. A hard problem to do well with Monte Carlo. Compare method with quantum annealing methods in www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Exploring the thermodynamics of disordered materials with quantum computing
A quantum annealer is employed to search for low energy states on complex energy landscapes of disordered materials.

This article suggests the possibility of training AI on pre-existing proposals and their review reports, scores and related decisions. I.e. training them on a system which is known to preferentially award larger amounts of money to white men. What could possibly go wrong?

#CIUK day two kicked off with the @whpcanz.bsky.social breakfast, now Jason Nucciarone and Dominic Sloan-Murphy telling us about Ubuntu HPC
#CIUK kicked off in the main hall first with Paul Walker explaining how to use immersion cooling in data centres and now Crispen Keable (Eviden) telling us how Jupiter HPC was built
Weronika from @epcc.bsky.social kicks off the Understanding dRTP landscape breakout at #CIUK25, the first of several #DRI project breakouts and sessions this week. Led by CHARTERED, DisCouRSE and SCALE-UP the session is exploring dRTP roles and progression
Posters are also good, break was busy with discussions. Asa explaining his joint work with @spacetimelassie.bsky.social on benchmarking @dwavequantum.bsky.social systems
Getting going in the first session of the 5th CoSeC conference on day zero of #CIUK conference in Manchester ...
Christina Kerr from DSIT last speaker at the HPC-AI conference in Leicester, telling us about the UK government's 10 year compute plans.

We are absolutely delighted that former IOP President Professor Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell has been appointed Companion of Honour, one of the nation's highest honours, in today's #KingsHonours2025
Hans Briegel telling us how to do GenAI with measurement based quantum computing. Lots of MBQC today, Richard Jozsa related it to IQP, and more from Elham Kashefi after lunch at #FQC2025 in Edinburgh, part of the #quantumfringe. (see alt text re colours in photo)
EPCC will be joining the fun at the #BigBangFair from 17-19 June. Meet our team at Stand 141 to learn all about high performance computing systems and experience parallel scaling in the ball-sorting challenge! edin.ac/4n2xGvJ

Want to use one of the fastest quantum simulators but hate writing python or C++? I've just open sourced a project with high level Rust bindings for Qulacs. github.com/quantinuum-d... Still reasonably unstable but hopefully minimally usable now!
