Accelerating the Quantum Toolkit for Python (QuTiP) with cuQuantum on AWS
Simulating quantum systems using classical computers remains a computational challenge. In fact, the resources required for these simulations scale exponentially with the size of the system being simulated. This fact is at the core of the motivation to build a quantum computer. Quantum computers have the potential to surpass even the most powerful supercomputers when […]
Introducing Local Device Emulator for Verbatim Circuits on Amazon Braket
Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of local device emulator on Amazon Braket. This feature enables developers to emulate their verbatim circuits based on device calibration data. Local device emulation helps accelerate the development cycle by providing early feedback on circuit compatibility and expected behavior in the presence of noise. In this post, we […]
Amazon Braket introduces program sets enabling customers to run quantum programs up to 24x faster
When running quantum computing workloads with multiple circuits, such as simulating molecular systems, building classical shadows, and training quantum machine learning models, submitting each circuit individually creates substantial delays between executions due to task setup and processing time. This overhead adds hours to the total run time of the experiments and makes the results sensitive […]
Introducing the Amazon Braket Learning Plan and Digital Badge
Available today, quantum computing developers, educators, and enthusiasts can learn the foundations of quantum computing on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with the Amazon Braket Digital Learning Plan and earn their own Digital badge – at no additional cost. You earn the badge after completing a series of learning courses and scoring at least 80% on an […]
Amazon Braket launches new 54-qubit superconducting quantum processor from IQM
Amazon Braket enables customers to design and run quantum algorithms on a broad selection of quantum hardware through a unified interface. Today, we expand the hardware available on Braket with the general availability of IQM’s latest quantum processing unit (QPU). The device, named Emerald, is a 54-qubit superconducting QPU providing customers higher fidelity gates and […]
Simulating Fluid Mechanics using Quantum Computing on Amazon Braket with Haiqu and Quanscient
Numerical simulations of complex fluid dynamics, electromagnetics and thermomechanical problems are crucial in the automotive and aerospace industries for designing and optimizing components like airplane wings, yet modeling continuum physics on high-resolution grids pushes classical computing to its limits. Quantum computing offers a potential path to overcome these barriers by encoding large simulation grids with […]
