The John von Neumann Institute for Computing (NIC) has been providing computation time on supercomputers for science and industry for more than 25 years. Up to now, the facility (based at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre in Forschungszentrum Jülich) has been operated jointly with two other Helmholtz centres, Deutsches Elektronensynchrotron DESY and GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung. A fourth partner, the Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, has now joined the team to strengthen research in the field of computational science in Germany and Europe.
The Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) at Forschungszentrum Jülich received a 100-qubit quantum computer from Pasqal in mid-November. Pasqal is a world leader in neutral atoms quantum computing technology. The new quantum computer is part of the EuroHPC JU project HPCQS and will be coupled with the JURECA DC supercomputer at JSC.
Prominent academic institutions of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia have jointly formed the AI service center WestAI to provide support for business and research. The state-of-the-art computing infrastructures of Forschungszentrum Jülich and RWTH Aachen are utilized for the services. As of now, interested outside parties can request computing time for AI projects via the WestAI website. The initiative is led by the University of Bonn and funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
