HPSFCon 2026 Recap: Quantum Computing Meets HPC: An Open Source Path to Hybrid Workflows – Martin Schulz, TU Munich
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmd1gMvdTh4 Quantum computing has generated enormous hype. What's harder to find is a grounded, practical roadmap for how quantum systems actually integrate with HPC infrastructure. At HPSFCon 2026, Martin Schulz from TU Munich offered exactly that — a concrete look at the Munich Quantum Software Stack (MQSS). "Quantum Meets HPC:… Read more.

HPSFCon 2026 Recap: 20 Years of Code: How Chapel Tackles Technical Debt in HPC – Jade Abraham, HPE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEuscAsbZwA Every long-lived software project accumulates technical debt. In HPC — where compilers, runtimes, test infrastructure, and tools are deeply entangled, and where correctness and performance are both non-negotiable — it can feel insurmountable. At HPSFCon 2026, Jade Abraham of HPE shared how the Chapel team confronts this reality after… Read more.

HPSFCon 2026 Recap: Scientific Computing in Your Browser: How stdlib Is Making It Real – Gunj Joshi, stdlib
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rox9LZz_ffI What if you didn't need a supercomputer — or even a local Python installation — to run serious scientific computations? That's the vision Gunj Joshi of stdlib brought to HPSFCon 2026. In "Bringing Complex Computations To Browsers With Open Source," Joshi walked through the rapidly maturing ecosystem of JavaScript… Read more.

HPSFCon 2026 Recap: The HPC Center of the Future: Agentic Orchestration and Converged Computing – Vanessa Sochat, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmVid4ntya8 HPC centers are at an inflection point. For decades, batch scheduling systems have been the backbone of supercomputing — reliable, predictable, and optimized for throughput. But as scientific discovery increasingly depends on tightly coupled simulation and AI/ML workflows, that same reliability has become a constraint. At HPSFCon 2026, Vanessa… Read more.
