Context And Mission
The Quantic group is a BSC initiative to study Quantum computation. This novel paradigm of computation has the potential to exploit Quantum mechanics to perform high-performance computations of Quantum systems and optimization problems.
The final goal of this project is the application of this new computing power to real-world problems. Our approach involves the development of novel HPC tools to simulate and study large scale Quantum circuits.
