Talk, Barcelona International Convention Center (CCIB), Barcelona, Spain
I have been invited to give a talk at the Open Compute Project EMEA Summit in the Future Technology Initiative (OCP FTI) Data Center Integration of Quantum Information Infrastructure track. More details to come.
Talk, OpenQSE Architecture Seminar Series, Online
I gave a talk at the OpenQSE (Open QHPC Software Ecosystem) initiative’s architecture seminar series focused on the Q-HPC middleware we are developing at Pasqal such as a 2nd level scheduler that will take care of scheduling the quantum tasks from within the HPC allocation. You can find the meeting notes and transcript here. The slides will appear on the GitHub repo. And you can even watch the recording.
Talk, OCP FTI: Data Center Integration of Quantum Information Infrastructure, Online
I was invited to give a talk titled “Making QPUs First-Class HPC Resources” at the Open Compute Project’s Future Technology Initiative (OCP FTI) Data Center Integration of Quantum Information Infrastructure working group. The talk focused on the software side of HPC integration, and how this may generalise to general data center integration of QPUs. A LinkedIn event was made, and I will add the recording once available.
Talk, Links Foundation, Torino, Italy
European Quantum Software and Systems Summit (EQS3)’s 6th edition took place the 9th-11th of December 2025 at the LINKS Foundation in Torino, Italy. This session was focused on the software connecting QCs to the HPC infrastructure, particularly centered around the QDMI (Quantum Device Management Interface) From the MQSS. I was invited to give an overview to our similar QRMI (Quantum Resource Management Interface) and discuss how they compare and might co-exists and co-evolve in the future.
Talk, America's Center Convention Complex, St. Louis, MO
This year at Supercomputing I will have two main talks. I gave a talk at the 1st Annual Workshop on Large Scale Quantum-Classical Computing, titled “QC-HPC Systems for the Quantum Advantage Era” giving an overview of Pasqal’s QPU, applications in material science and our HPC-QC work. And another talk on “Towards a user-centric HPC-QC environment” at the 1st International Workshop on Software Frameworks and Workload Management for Quantum and HPC Ecosystems. The accompanying paper is available in the workshop proceedings.
Talk, Riken R-CCS, Kobe, Japan
Attended the yearly all-hands of the “Quantum-centric Supercomputing for Materials Science” working group organized by IBM and held at the R-CCS in Kobe. We had 2 days of talks and discussions focused on quantum-HPC integration and applications in materials science, chemistry and condensed matter.
Talk, HPC 25, Cetraro, Italy
I had the pleasure of attending the 32nd edition of the invite-only “International Advanced Research Workshop on High Performance Computing” held, as always, in Cetraro (Italy), June 23 – 27, 2025 to present our strategy towards quantum supercomputing at Pasqal.
Talk, ISC-HPC 25, QQCC25, Hamburg, Germany
At this years ISC I gave two talks, and also a “meet the experts” session at the booth of the Julich Supercomputing Center. IBM Quantum had a workshop where themselves and partners gave updates on the the state of quantum-centric supercomputing (QCSC). I gave a talk on “Software for heterogeneous quantum computing”, presenting our joint work on creating a joint software-stack for QCSC. Primarily the work on resource management, the associated code for spank plugins for quantum resources and jobs, and our Qiskit integration.
Talk, ULB Solbosch Campus, Brussels, Belgium
I gave a talk at the Quantum Computing devroom @ FOSDEM 2025 organised by the Unitary Fund. FOSDEM is a free event for the free and open source software community. The turnup for the quantum devroom was amazing, hopefully to be repeated in the future. The talk was titled “No-one used my software: a tale of quantum software engineering”, and was about the practical experience of writing quantum software for a living over the years. We touched on issues ranging from quantum physics and hardware to user interaction, requirements gathering and community building. It was great to share experiences with the community!
Talk, Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta, Georgia
Supercomputing 2024 took place 17th - 22nd of November 2024 in Atlanta.. With a record of over 18 000 attendees and almost 500 exhibitors it’s the highlight of the HPC calendar. It was great to catch up with friends, partners, and new connections and to discuss with all the other attendees. I gave talks at Pasqal’s booth and at partner booths.
Talk, DTU, Copenhagen, Denmark
European Quantum Software and Systems Summit (EQS3)’s third edition took place the 17th - 19th of April 2024 at DTU in Denmark. Some interesting days of discussions between the quantum and HPC world with particular focus on abstractions, handoff points and to what extent the different qubit modalities have different so requirements we need separate stacks. I presented Pasqal’s current architecture and some of our viewpoints for the future.
Talk, Institution of Engineering and Technology, London, UK
I gave a talk about our digital-analog programming language Qadence at the Fourth International Workshop on Programming Languages for Quantum Computing (PLanQC 2024) at the 51st ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages (POPL 2024).
Talk, IEEE QCE23, Advanced simulations of quantum computations, Bellevue, WA, USA
I presented on behalf of Pasqals emulation team our work on tensor network simulations of pulse level programming of neutral atom QPUs as well as our work on differentiable simulators for digital-analog algorithms. The work presented centred around our whitepaper for the cloud-based tensor network emulator (EMU-TN)[https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.05253] and the emulators built for the then not yet released (Qadence)[https://github.com/pasqal-io/qadence] digital-analog quantum programming interface.
Talk, ISC-HPC 23, QQCC23, Hamburg, Germany
Giving an introduction to neutral atoms based, digital-analog, quantum computing and the challenges that arise trying to integrate such non-solid state devices into current and future HPC centres.
Talk, OsloMet University, Oslo, Norway
An introduction to neutral atoms based QC and what we do in industry to the faculties at various institutions in Oslo.
