BEYOND THE SUPERCOMPUTER
Classical computing has changed the world with multiple revolutions in cloud, AI and Machine learning. But believe it or not, it’s reaching its peak. And so, the promise of Quantum technology is that it has the potential to truly help solve some of our greatest challenges - climate, supply chain shortages and inefficiencies, food insecurity, cyber vulnerabilities, and destabilization of economies. What will it take to really get there and how far are we anyway?
Speaker:
Pete Shadbolt, Co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer, PsiQuantum
Tony Uttley, President, Quantum Solutions, Honeywell
Moderator: Verne Kopytoff, FORTUNE

Supercomputer by Cray Research. The machine in background is the computers fluorinert-cooling tower.
One of the very first Cray supercomputers. I believed it was bigger; in fact, it's as tall as myself... sorry for the bad shoot, I always take more pictures of everything and choose the best one, but this was not the case, dunno why...
James had just woken up and I think this is the first picture we ever took together. Alas, I'm quite a bit hungover/sleep deprived here, thus the red eyes.
And, yes, I know I have a big head. Thanks for that. I'll get back to you when my supercomputer figures out what number person you are to note that.

In 2016, the National Science Foundation (NSF) announced a $30 million award to the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at The University of Texas at Austin to acquire and deploy a new large scale supercomputing system, Stampede 2, as a strategic national resource to provide high-performance computing capabilities for thousands of researchers across the U.S.

These are memory modules from a Cray supercomputer. The density on these machines was so great that the componenets had to be liquid cooled. Cool Fluorinert would enter via blue tube and exit by red.

The Mellon Institute building was finished in 1937. It is the home of several basic science departments of Carnegie Mellon University. it also houses the Pittsburgh Supercomputer Center. The building is a huge gray Greek-style structure reminiscent of the Parthenon. Pollution and city grime have left their mark on the limestone columns

Yigit Demirag is currently in his senior year of undergraduate studies at Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Bilkent University, in Turkey. As an undergraduate, he developed an unsupervised machine learning algorithm requiring advanced signal processing for THz-TDS system in Nanotechnology Research Center, which resulted in a patent preparation. He also worked at BiLCEM supercomputers which doubles the world record in computational electromagnetic to improve load-balancing and reduce memory usage with openMP. During his stay at CERN, he is working on vectorization and SIMD optimization of Random Number Generators on Intel's Haswell Architecture. His twitter account is @yigitdemirag
