[NVIDIA expands CUDA-Q platform and launches quantum fault-tolerant computing orchestration layer] On September 14th, NVIDIA announced the expansion of the open source CUDA-Q platform and the launch of the CUDA-Q Logical orchestration layer, which provides programmable and verifiable tools for fault-tolerant quantum computing application development, supporting application scenarios such as drug research and development, financial modeling, and materials development. Nvidia said that Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory used CUDA-Q Logical to shorten fault-tolerant algorithm development time from usually about 5 months to 3 weeks, increasing efficiency by about 7 times. In addition, QUOPS, the quantum computing benchmark developed by Sandia National Laboratory, has also been added to CUDA-Q for cross-platform evaluation of the progress of quantum computing hardware toward practical fault-tolerant quantum computing. According to reports, CUDA-Q Logical has been adopted by quantum computing companies and research institutions such as Fermilab, Infleqtion, and IQM Quantum Computers.
