    Logical Qubit Roadmap (28 and Counting) — with Kristen Pudenz of Atom Computing

    You could summarize 2024 in two quantum computing topics: the release of the NIST PQC standards and the arrival of logical qubits. We dig into the latter in this episode. Atom Computing recently performed computation on 28 logical qubits with the help of Microsoft’s qubit virtualization. The future roadmap is optimistic and exciting for those looking for quantum advantage from hardware. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis as he discusses how we get to fault-tolerant systems with Kristen Pudenz from Atom Computing. Her experience at Lockheed Martin has also led to a unique view of developing practical quantum applications. For more information on Quantum Rings, visit https://atom-computing.com/.

    Simulating 128 Qubits (Yes, Really) — with Bob Wold of Quantum Rings

    If you’re a longtime listener, you probably have heard that we can’t simulate more than 50 qubits on a classical computer. Representing each qubit doubles the required system resources, and state vector simulation hits a wall even on supercomputers. But what if there was a different way to break this barrier, even on a laptop? Is the threat to cryptography on an accelerated timeline because of this or other techniques? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis as he discusses with Bob Wold from Quantum Rings how tensor networks may take us into new realms of practical quantum computing for everyone.

    Quantum Networking and Interconnect in Production — with Jim Ricotta of Aliro

    To modify a Feynman quote, we can safely say that no one understands quantum … networking. The definition does mean different things to different folks. Sometimes, the best way to solidify a concept is to bring it to the real world. It turns out there is a way to experiment with quantum networking, and you wouldn’t believe how it’s already being used to interconnect different quantum computing modalities (for example, superconducting and trapped-ion systems). You read that correctly; we didn’t think this would be possible for quite some time. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a wide-ranging chat with Jim Ricotta from Aliro.   For more information on Aliro, visit www.aliroquantum.com/.   Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/US-en/technology-consulting/quantum-computing-services  to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.   Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on all socials: @KonstantHacker and follow Protiviti Technology on LinkedIn and Twitter: @ProtivitiTech.      Questions and comments are welcome!   Theme song by David Schwartz, copyright 2021.   The views expressed by the participants of this program are their own and do not represent the views of, nor are they endorsed by, Protiviti Inc., The Post-Quantum World, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, shareholders, or subsidiaries.  None of the content should be considered investment advice, as an offer or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, or as an endorsement of any company, security, fund, or other securities or non-securities offering.
