QSupply: A quantum-enhanced supply chain solution
09h30 - 10h00Supply chain optimization is a critical problem in most industries. The goal is to find the optimal solution (e.g. most efficient in time and cost) for sourcing, production, storage and distribution of materials and goods in a business while respecting all the underlying constraints. End-to-end optimization of supply chain planning can easily become a very complex or intractable problem. Quantum computing has the promise of outperforming classical methods for certain optimization tasks. In this demo, we explore the quantum annealing technology for solving small examples of supply chain problem constructed based on real world use cases.

Write your first quantum circuits with myQLM
10h00 - 10h30myQLM is a freeware python package developed by Atos that provides quantum circuit creation and simulation tools to researchers, students, developers, and more generally tech enthusiasts. Anyone can explore the capabilities of quantum computing with myQLM, from experimenting with programming to launching simulations of up to 20 qubits directly on their own computer and even larger by connecting to an Atos QLM.
During this session, Jean-Christophe Jaskula will explain where to find myQLM, how to install it and write your first quantum circuits. To go further, online documentation and tutorials will be also presented, as well as community support tools such as opensource contributions and community forums.

MEGAQUBO: Quantum-inspired optimization in production for large-scale applications
15h30 - 16h00The process of solving complex combinatorial optimization problems can largely benefit from Quantum Computing. As we prepare for powerful Quantum devices, the formalism can be exploited already today, on Graphics Processing Units (GPU), to quickly obtain high-quality solutions for large use cases. We are going to present how real-world challenges lead to the need for our Quantum-inspired approach and some applications we have successfully applied it in.
