Recently inaugurated at the NCAR-Wyoming Supercomputer Center (NWSC) in Cheyenne, WY, the Derecho supercomputer is a result of broad collaboration between and support from the state of Wyoming, the University of Wyoming, the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), and HPE. Its capabilities will enable scientists and researchers to better model and understand earth science processes to develop environmental intelligence in support of key societal risk management areas against natural events such as hurricanes, wildfires, and floods.

Israeli Government Launches Comprehensive Quantum Computing Development Program
Bob Sorensen, Tom Sorensen
The Israel Innovation Authority and the Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD) recently announced a $62 million USD collaborative effort to establish a domestic quantum computing (QC) infrastructure. The two-pronged approach calls for the Israel Innovation Authority, part of Israel's Ministry of Economy charged with fostering domestic industrial R&D, to focus on developing QC algorithms, applications, and a related software stack to support both on-premises or cloud QC access models. For its part, the IMOD will stand up a national center to develop a complete quantum computer including a quantum processor expected to consist of 30-40 qubits, quantum control capabilities, and I/O interfacing hardware.
