中国石化新闻网讯 据俄罗斯油气网1月8日休斯敦报道，埃克森美孚公司日前与美国国际商用机器公司（IBM）签署了一项合作协议，以推进量子计算在开发下一代能源和制造技术方面的潜在应用。 作为协议的一部分，埃克森美孚公司成为了首家加入IBM Q网络的能源公司。IBM Q网络是世界500强企业、初创企业、学术机构和国家研究实验室组成的全球社区，致力于推进量子计算和探索科学和商业的实际应用。 埃克森美孚公司研究与工程公司研发副总裁维贾伊·斯瓦卢普说：“我们在业务中面临的许多挑战的规模和复杂性超过了今天传统计算机的极限。” 斯瓦卢普说：“量子计算可以潜在地为我们提供模拟自然和化学的能力，这是我们以前从未有过的。由于我们在能源和化工制造领域继续我们的研发努力，我们与IBM的协议将使我们能够扩大我们的知识基础，并有可能在计算领域应用新的解决方案来进一步推进这些工作。” 李峻 编译自 俄罗斯油气网 原文如下： Exxon and IBM to advance energy sector application of quantum computing ExxonMobil signed a partnership agreement with IBM to advance the potential use of quantum computing in developing next-generation energy and manufacturing technologies. As part of the agreement, ExxonMobil becomes the 1st energy company to join the IBM Q Network, a worldwide community of Fortune 500 companies, startups, academic institutions and national research labs working to advance quantum computing and explore practical applications for science and business. «The scale and complexity of many challenges we face in our business surpass the limits of today’s traditional computers», said Vijay Swarup, vice president of research and development for ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company. «Quantum computing can potentially provide us with capabilities to simulate nature and chemistry that we’ve never had before. As we continue our own research and development efforts in the areas of energy and chemical manufacturing, our agreement with IBM will allow us to expand our knowledge base and potentially apply new solutions in computing to further advance those efforts.»
