SUMMARY:Quantum Futures: Quantum Computing in the NISQ Era
DESCRIPTION:Invited Talk\n\nQuantum Futures: Quantum Computing in the NISQ
  Era\n\nWendin\n\nDuring the last 20 years, quantum computing has progress
 ed from physical experimentation to engineering and prototyping. It is now
  possible to run real-world applications for optimization and quantum chem
 istry on small superconducting and ion trap quantum processors with around
  50 qubits, and roadmaps point toward 1000 qubits in less than 5 years. Si
 nce we live in the era of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices,
  however, coherence times are limited. This means that the depth of quantu
 m circuits and the length of computations are necessarily severely limited
 . In the NISQ era the challenge is therefore to substantially improve cohe
 rence times, so that the entire qubit register can become entangled and re
 ad out before the game is over. In this talk we will briefly describe the 
 present status and near-future plans for quantum processing units (QPU) an
 d integration with HPC. We will then discuss the status of quantum softwar
 e and describe results of quantum simulation on HPC and computations on re
 al QPU hardware.\n\nTag: Algorithms, Architectures, Emerging Technologies,
