DCAI Supports NVQLink for AI and Quantum Systems

DCAI is an AI infrastructure company operating with Denmark's artificial intelligence supercomputer Gefion. The company has announced that it supports the new NVIDIA NVQLink reference architecture, taking a step further in its leadership in hybrid artificial intelligence-quantum systems. This initiative aims to prepare for a future where artificial intelligence and quantum computing work side by side.

NVQLink offers a pathway for hybrid workflows that combine AI-enabled data processing with quantum algorithms by providing ultra-low latency and high data flow between classical and quantum systems. Integrated with the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform, NVQLink enables developers to manage both computing resources in real-time within a single software environment. NVQLink functions like a Rosetta Stone, linking quantum and classical supercomputers.

DCAI CEO Nadia Carlsten emphasized, "We believe the future of computing involves the seamless operation of artificial intelligence and quantum computers," highlighting the importance of NVQLink's openness and universality for innovation.

DCAI notes that advancements in quantum technologies are progressing across various types of hardware—such as trapped ions, superconductors, and photonic systems—and believes that open standards like NVQLink are crucial for interoperability and long-term flexibility. The inclusion of NVQLink offers customers the opportunity to explore hybrid applications without being tied to a specific quantum architecture or vendor ecosystem.

NVIDIA Quantum General Manager Tim Costa stated, "NVIDIA NVQLink builds the bridge to tomorrow's integrated quantum-GPU supercomputers," indicating that DCAI's work is critical for making hybrid quantum-classical computing a practical reality.

DCAI, particularly in collaboration with Ansys and NVIDIA, is conducting simulations of GPU-supported quantum algorithms. The Gefion supercomputer has achieved significant success in applications of fluid dynamics engineering on a 39-qubit system. This accomplishment demonstrates how artificial intelligence and quantum computing can come together to accelerate practical engineering workflows.

Moreover, DCAI has been involved in groundbreaking projects at major research centers like Copenhagen University. Here, researchers have conducted noise-free quantum computer simulations with the Gefion supercomputer, achieving over 100% improvement in algorithmic efficiency. The project examines drug-docking simulations for cancer research and future hybrid quantum-classical architectures, highlighting DCAI's commitment to merging artificial intelligence and quantum computing.

With the NVQLink initiative, DCAI is not only making Denmark a hub for advanced computing in Europe but also providing support for researchers and innovation communities exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and quantum technologies.
