Yuval Boger interviews Bob Sorensen of Hyperion Research about the growing convergence of quantum computing and high-performance computing. They outline a problem-first adoption playbook for HPC centers: identify bottlenecks, benchmark classical options and costs, then evaluate quantum as an accelerator with clear ROI and procurement targets. Sorensen weighs cloud versus on‑prem tradeoffs, argues ...
The narrative presented here is a thoughtful exploration of quantum computing's integration into HPC, grounded in practical adoption strategies rather than hype. Sorensen's problem-first approach is a refreshing counter to the often speculative discussions around quantum computing, emphasizing measurable ROI and seamless integration over technical novelty. This aligns with the broader trend in technology adoption where real-world utility, not just innovation, drives decision-making. The emphasis...
