Australian Red Cross Lifeblood collaborates with AWS to optimize rostering
Using AWS advanced computing, the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood achieved theoretical cost reductions of up to 46% by optimizing nurse scheduling – key to meeting rising blood donation demand affordably.
Constructing an “end-to-end” quantum algorithm: a comprehensive technical resource for algorithms designers
Today we’re introducing Quantum algorithms: A survey of applications and end-to-end complexities. This is a comprehensive resource, designed for quantum computing researchers and customers who are looking to explore how quantum algorithms will apply to their use cases.
Announcing the Amazon Braket Challenge winners of the QHack 2023 Hackathon
Over 2800 developers from the PennyLane community got together during the virtual QHack event in February. Today we bring you some highlights and tell you about the winning projects.
Combinatorial Optimization with Physics-Inspired Graph Neural Networks
Combinatorial optimization problems, such as the traveling salesman problem where we are looking for an optimal path with a discrete number of variables, are pervasive across science and industry. Practical (and yet notoriously challenging) applications can be found in virtually every industry, such as transportation and logistics, telecommunications, and finance. For example, optimization algorithms help […]
Community Detection using Hybrid Quantum Annealing on Amazon Braket – Part 2
As of 11/17/2022, D-Wave is no longer available on Amazon Braket and has transitioned to the AWS Marketplace. Therefore, information on this page may be outdated. Learn more. Many customers are facing the challenge of efficiently extracting information hidden within complex network structures. For example, a healthcare insurance company needs to identify fraudulent claims through […]
Realizing quantum spin liquid phase on an analog Hamiltonian Rydberg simulator
This week at re:Invent, we announced the future availability of a Rydberg-atom based quantum computer from QuEra Computing. Launching in 2022, it will introduce a new quantum computing paradigm to Amazon Braket, Analog Hamiltonian Simulation (AHS). AHS uses programmable quantum devices to emulate the behavior of other quantum mechanical systems. Already today, researchers in academia […]
Improving analysis of the computational cost of quantum simulations for chemistry and material science
This post summarizes a recent research paper from the AWS Center for Quantum Computing. The paper provides an improved analysis of quantum simulation of chemical and material systems. This research shows that such simulations can be implemented using fewer elementary quantum operations than previously thought. Computer simulations enable scientists to test their intuition about the […]
