Hybrid quantum-classical algorithms show significant promise in effectively harnessing the computational capabilities of near-term quantum systems when combined with classical HPC systems on key applications. Two recent developments reveal a growing interest in advancing such algorithms: the first, a trio of European-based organizations partnering to build a complete quantum computing R&D ecosystem: the second, a commercial partnership between quantum annealing vendor D-Wave and the Japanese supercomputer vendor, NEC. Successful growth of hybrid capabilities will require a merging of quantum and related HPC skills and can only contribute to the overall development pace of the quantum computing sector writ large. Additional partnerships with similar intentions will likely emerge soon.

The AI Hardware Summit: A Recap
Alex Norton, Bob Sorensen, Steve Conway and Earl Joseph
This inaugural, two-day AI Hardware summit held in Mountain View, California, at the Computer History Museum, brought together researchers, vendors, and users to explore the development of the AI ecosystem from a hardware perspective. Large companies, startups, and analysts joined to hear over 30 speakers and roundtables. Although the overall theme was all AI hardware, many of the presentations focused on AI processors and the work that is being done to design hardware to further the development of the evolving and growing field of AI, machine learning, and deep learning.
