معرفی
Prof. Dr. Thomas Lippert is a Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt and the Director of the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) at Forschungszentrum Jülich. He leads efforts in quantum computing integration, high-performance computing (HPC), and modular supercomputing architectures. His work focuses on hybrid quantum-classical systems, supercomputer development (e.g., JUPITER, JUWELS), and enabling computational science across domains like neuroscience, materials science, and earth systems.
Research Interests include quantum algorithms, quantum-classical hybrid systems, supercomputing infrastructure, and applications in quantum simulation, optimization, and AI. He spearheads projects like JUNIQ (quantum computing infrastructure) and contributes to Helmholtz Information Program initiatives. He has been instrumental in developing Europe’s first exascale system (JUPITER) and advancing quantum computing integration into HPC environments.
Notable contributions include the JUWELS Booster for AI research, the QSolid quantum computing demonstrator, and interdisciplinary collaborations in neuroscience computing. He oversees JSC’s supercomputers (JUWELS, JUSUF) and storage systems, fostering industry-academia partnerships. His team addresses challenges in quantum benchmarking, error mitigation, and large-scale scientific workflows.
Lippert collaborates on EU-funded projects (e.g., HPCQS) and national initiatives, driving innovation in supercomputing and quantum technologies. His work emphasizes sustainable digital infrastructure and Germany’s tech sovereignty through advanced computing.
