Quantum Computing on Cloud
Access quantum acceleration on cloud using co processor model
Unlike GPU cards, quantum acceleration is unlikely to be available as a personal computer in the near future. Right now all the known quantum computers are owned by major players. The lack of availability of quantum computers makes it beneficial to centralize the power of quantum computers, using a SaaS model to democratize access to them, therefore making the cloud a suitable home for quantum computing.
The first part of the session introduces an open-source co-processor model where classical computers can offload specialized tasks that are better suited to quantum computers thus lowering the onramp to incorporating quantum computing into applications today.
The next part of the sessions demonstrate how to build a co-processor model on the cloud using two community operators that provide quantum acceleration by leveraging Qiskit, an open-source SDK for developing quantum circuits, classical components powered by Red Hat OpenShift and IBM Quantum Experience as the quantum backend
The session concludes with a small demonstration of how to run a quantum circuit on the cloud using the co-processor model.

How can users of your network be allowed not only to remotely access their files but also to collaboratively edit them? Docker, NextCloud, LibreOffice Online and LDAP are the pillars of the proposed solution. The talk will start describing the context where this proposal was born i.e. the FUSS Project (https://fuss.bz.it). The analysis of the problem will follow along with the development details of the solution and suggested deployment strategies.

You've just had an idea for a great application but don't think anyone else is interested? You've used your weekends and free time to come up with something that actually solves someone else's problem? You'd love to open source your project so others can use it but you don't know where to start. We'll explain the way from an idea to an open source project using a step by step guide - including links, code snippets, and open source tools you can use to open source your own project.

We are convinced that young people can make an important contribution to the Free Software community. They see many things from a different perspective than adults, which is worth looking at more closely, because new ideas and points of view can be integrated into the development of free software. Since most children and young people are already in contact with the digital world at school, we want to involve young people in the development of software. In our presentation, we will show how we ...

2020 was a very bad year for most of us, under the shadow of all that was going on there was a troubling trend we all need to be aware of: the erosion of the classic open source model and values. For years vendors have been slowly chipping away at the freedom and openness provided by open source, this year saw unprecedented changes to how people view and value OSS. From licensing changes to as a service exclusive, what was open is no longer. Is this being driven solely by the cloud? or is this ...

Do you feel like you don't belong, you don't deserve what you achieved, everyone in your office is more talented than you? Do you have imposter syndrome... too? Imposter syndrome is common across all industries, but the increasing pressure to be successful in IT is taking its toll on employees, affecting more than half workers, me included :) After many years working in tech for a lot of companies (from startups to big corporations) in many business fields, I found a way to overcome self-doubt ...

With Kubernetes gaining popularity for performance-critical workloads such as 5G, Edge, IoT, Telco, and AI/ML, it is becoming increasingly important to meet stringent networking and resource management requirements of these use cases. Performance-critical workloads like these require topology information in order to use co-located CPU cores and devices. Despite the success of Topology Manager, aligning topology of requested resources, the current native scheduler does not select a node based on ...
