High Performance Computing (HPC) versus Quantum Computing
High Performance Computing (HPC) versus Quantum Computing in the 21st Century
High Performance Computing (HPC) relies on conventional bits and processors used in classical computing. In contrast, Quantum Computing uses specialized technology-based Quantum Mechanics to solve complex problems. Quantum algorithms create multidimensional computational spaces that are a much more efficient way of solving complex problems—like simulating how molecules behave—that Classic Computers or Supercomputers can’t solve quickly enough. Quantum Computing is not expected to replace High Performance Computing (HPC) anytime soon. Rather, the two technologies can be combined to achieve efficiency and optimal performance.
