Listen "16. Optimised Simulation of General Quantum Circuits - Adam Kelly - EUCYS"
Episode Synopsis
Adam Kelly became BT Young Scientist & Technologist of the Year and the winner of SciFest in Ireland. He won First, Best of Category Award in Systems Software and the Dudley R Herschbach SIYSS Award at Intel ISEF 2019 (Adam is going to attend the Nobel Prize Ceremony and Festivities this December). He has recently won First Prize of 7,000 Euros at EUCYS in Sofia, where we recorded and filmed! our conversation.
His software has direct applications in the verification of quantum devices; quantum algorithm design and investigations of quantum supremacy. Adam developed a novel method for state vector simulation. Unlike current tools, this enables the use of both hardware acceleration and distributed systems. The developments create a coherent approach towards the simulation of quantum circuits, that can be used by any researcher to improve the simulation process for any quantum circuit.
