 fd8Abstract: Xanadu is a Canadian company, founded in Toronto in 2016, wit
 h a mission to make quantum computers useful and available to people every
 where. Xanadu is one of the world's leading quantum hardware and software 
 companies and also leads the development of PennyLane, an open-source quan
 tum software platform for designing, compiling, and realizing meaningful q
 uantum algorithms.This workshop explores GPU-assisted quantum simulation u
 sing PennyLane to bridge the gap between small-scale and large scale state
 -vector simulations in quantum algorithmic research. Participants will gai
 n hands-on experience using PennyLane's high-performance GPU devices to si
 mulate 15+ qubits with high efficiency through two illustrative examples o
 f quantum algorithmic sub-routines.Prerequisites: Basic familiarity with P
 ython is needed. Experience with Slurm-based clusters will be useful. Han
 ds-on participation: The demonstrations will be on NCSA's DeltaAI cluster
 .  If you already have an allocation on DeltaAI, then please use that for
  the workshop. If you do not have an allocation on DeltaAI, then we will a
 dd you to a training allocation for the duration of the workshop. You wil
 l need to an ACCESS account for to be added to a training allocation on De
 ltaAI. The account is free and can be set up on the ACCESS account registr
 ation page. Please set up your ACCESS account before completing this regis
 tration form. If you already have an ACCESS account, then please ensure th
 at your academic status and country of residences information are correct.
  Please create your ACCESS account and register by June 19, 2026, to ensur
 e that you are added to the training allocation on DeltaAI.
