Description
The United States Department of Energy (DOE) invites public comment on its Request for Information regarding national needs for two interconnected testbed initiatives: (1) A cryogenic testbed for developing, testing, and advancing quantum technologies and classical logic, and (2) A testbed for integrating quantum computing and quantum technologies with classical high-performance computing (HPC) assets that are progressively scalable.
This RFI solicits feedback from industry, research entities, and other stakeholders to guide DOE’s strategic planning for a DOE testbed that can support development of both classical and quantum technologies, including development of integrated quantum computing and HPC technologies for fault-tolerant quantum computing. DOE seeks input from potentially interested users and vendors.
