OCP EMEA Summit
An upcoming talk at the Open Compute Project EMEA Summit, in the OCP FTI track on data center integration of quantum information infrastructure. More details and materials will be added closer to the event.

OpenQSE
Talk at OpenQSE’s architecture seminar series on quantum-HPC middleware: QRMI as a thin vendor-agnostic layer, and a second-level scheduler to manage quantum work inside an HPC allocation. I also discuss why the bottlenecks are operational and software-driven, not just hardware.
Open Compute Project: QPU Integration
My talk at OCP FTI on “Making QPUs First-Class HPC Resources.” I cover lessons from deploying neutral-atom QPUs into HPC centers, and what it takes to expose quantum devices as schedulable resources with the right orchestration and observability.
EQS3 VI QRMI Overview
At EQS3 VI in Torino I gave an overview of QRMI (Quantum Resource Management Interface) and discussed how it compares to QDMI. The session focused on the software that connects quantum devices to HPC infrastructure, and how these interfaces might co-evolve.
Supercomputing SC25
At SC25 I gave talks at two workshops on QC-HPC system architecture and on building a user-centric environment for hybrid workloads. The focus is on portable execution environments, QRMI-based integration, second-level scheduling, and observability that helps users and operators.
Material Science Working Group Meeting
Notes from the Quantum-centric Supercomputing for Materials Science working group meeting at RIKEN R-CCS in Kobe. Two days of talks on quantum-HPC integration for materials science, plus a chance to see Fugaku and IBM System Two co-located.
Towards quantum-classical supercomputing with neutral atoms
A talk at the International Advanced Research Workshop on High Performance Computing in Cetraro on Pasqal’s strategy toward quantum-centric supercomputing. I focus on neutral-atom QPUs and what integration looks like in practice: infrastructure, co-processing workflows, and scheduling.
Software at the intersection of Quantum and HPC & heterogeneous quantum computing
At ISC-HPC 2025 I gave two talks and a meet-the-experts session on software for heterogeneous quantum computing. Topics included resource management and scheduling, QRMI/Slurm integration, and what it takes to deploy neutral-atom QPUs into real HPC environments.
FOSDEM Quantum Computing Devroom
My talk at the Quantum Computing devroom at FOSDEM 2025: “No-one used my software: a tale of quantum software engineering.” It is a practical story about building quantum software in industry, from requirements and community building to architecture choices and long-term maintenance.
Supercomputing SC24
Notes from Supercomputing 2024 in Atlanta, the highlight of the HPC calendar. I gave talks at the Pasqal booth and with partners, and used the week to catch up with the community on what is real and what is hype in HPC and quantum integration.
European Quantum Software and Systems Summit (EQS3)
Notes from the third European Quantum Software and Systems Summit (EQS3) at DTU in Copenhagen. Discussions focused on abstractions, handoff points, and whether different qubit modalities require different software stacks.
Qadence @ POPL24
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).
Pulse level simulation of neutral atom QPUs
A talk at IEEE QCE on tensor-network simulation of pulse-level programs for neutral-atom QPUs, plus differentiable emulators for digital-analog algorithms. I also joined the workshop panel on where simulation breaks, and how tensor networks challenge advantage claims.
HPC-QC integration for neutral atoms based QPUs
A talk at ISC-HPC (QQCC23) on neutral-atom, digital-analog quantum computing and the practical challenges of integrating non-solid-state QPUs into HPC centers. I argue that vendor-specific capabilities and hardware-near programming should shape early quantum-HPC stacks.
Neutral atoms quantum computing and applications
An introduction to neutral-atom quantum computing and applications, given to faculty in Oslo. I was invited after attending QCNorway and used the format to share a more honest view of commercial constraints and timelines.
