Jaapani ühine uurimisrühm võitis peaministri auhinna ülikõrge jõudlusega andmetöötlusplatvormiga, kasutades ühiselt väljatöötatud 64-kubitist kvantarvutit

TOKYO, 15. märts 2024 – (JCN Newswire) – A Japanese consortium of research partners including RIKEN, the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT), Osaka University, Fujitsu Limited, and Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) have been recognized with the prestigious Prime Minister’s Award as part of the 53rd Japan Industrial Technology Awards for the successful development of a high-performance computing platform that leverages Japan’s second domestically-made superconducting quantum computer.

The platform leverages Japan’s second domestically-made 64-qubit superconducting quantum computer, which has been offered on the cloud since October 2023 to promote its use for commercial industrial research and development, and jointly developed by Fujitsu and RIKEN based on the know-how for the development of the first domestically-made 64-qubit superconducting quantum computer released in March 2023 by the joint research group.

The research group offered Japan’s first superconducting quantum computer under a joint research agreement for non-commercial use for the purpose of promoting and developing research and development in quantum computation and other fields. RIKEN and Fujitsu also unveiled Japan’s second superconducting quantum computer, based on the technology of the first superconducting quantum computer, on the cloud for industrial research and development in 2021, two and a half years after they established the RIKEN RQC-Fujitsu Collaboration Center.

These milestones highlight the rapid progress and innovative potential of Japan’s original quantum technologies, which are now demonstrating the ability to withstand the demands of the first stages of industrial application. One particularly promising technology is the superconducting quantum bit chip design proposed by RIKEN, which uses a unique three-dimensional mounting layout with scalability that can support expansion to the 1,000-qubit level.

RIKEN and Fujitsu’s superconducting quantum computer is provided as part of a hybrid quantum computing platform that also supports Fujitsu’s 40-qubit quantum simulator, which remains one of the largest scale simulators in the world (1). This platform implements a scalable cloud architecture that allows seamless operation of both quantum computers and quantum simulators to promote and accelerate adoption and collaboration between various companies.

The platform was highly praised at the 53rd Japan Industrial Technology Awards for its technological capabilities (originality and advancement), and for marking an important step toward the industrial use of quantum computers based on Japan’s unique quantum technology, and for its connection to efforts to expand the search for practical applications for quantum technology in various fields such as materials, finance, and drug discovery by providing a combination of quantum computing and quantum simulators to companies to engage in joint research projects.

In the future, the platform is anticipated to stimulate further research and development of quantum applications and accelerate the practical application of quantum computing technologies for both hardware and software, offering access to companies engaged in research in various fields.

The joint research group will continue to promote the social implementation of quantum computing by leveraging the strengths of each organization.

About the Japan Industrial Technology Awards

The Japan Industrial Technology Awards, sponsored by the Nikkan Kogyo Shinbun newspaper, honors companies and organizations that have contributed to industry and society over the year through the development and practical application of innovative large-scale industrial equipment and structures, and cutting-edge technology. It was established in 1972 to celebrate achievements that have contributed to the development of society and to encourage technological development. This marks the 53rd time that the award has been given to recognize “achievements that bring together comprehensive technology,” an increasingly relevant distinction for today’s era of industrial sophistication and systemized technology.

Osaka ülikoolist

Osaka ülikool asutati 1931. aastal ühena Jaapani seitsmest keiserlikust ülikoolist ja on nüüd üks Jaapani juhtivatest laia distsiplinaarspektriga ülikoolidest. See tugevus on ühendatud ainulaadse innovatsioonipüüdlusega, mis laieneb kogu teadusprotsessile, alustades alusuuringutest kuni positiivse majandusliku mõjuga rakendustehnoloogia loomiseni. Tema pühendumust innovatsioonile on tunnustatud Jaapanis ja kogu maailmas, nimetades 2015. aastal Jaapani kõige uuenduslikumaks ülikooliks (Reuters 2015 Top 100) ja 2017. aastal üheks maailma kõige uuenduslikumaks asutuseks (Innovatiivsed ülikoolid ja Nature Index Innovation 2017). . Nüüd kasutab Osaka ülikool oma rolli määratud riikliku ülikoolikorporatsioonina, mille haridus-, kultuuri-, spordi-, teadus- ja tehnoloogiaministeerium on valinud, et aidata kaasa innovatsioonile inimeste heaolu, ühiskonna säästva arengu ja sotsiaalse ümberkujundamise nimel.
