This paper continues to develop a fault tolerant extension of the sparse grid combination technique recently proposed in [B. Harding and M. Hegland, ANZIAM J., 54 (CTAC2012), pp. C394-C411]. The approach is novel for two reasons, first it provides several levels in which one can exploit parallelism leading towards massively parallel implementations, and second, it provides algorithm-based fault tolerance so that solutions can still be recovered if failures occur during computation. We present a generalisation of the combination technique from which the fault tolerant algorithm is a consequence. Using a model for the time between faults on each node of a high performance computer we provide bounds on the expected error for interpolation with this algorithm. Numerical experiments on the scalar advection PDE demonstrate that the algorithm is resilient to faults on a real application. It is observed that the trade-off of recovery time to decreased accuracy of the solution is suitably small. A comparison with traditional checkpoint-restart methods applied to the combination technique show that our approach is highly scalable with respect to the number of faults.
Reliable qubits are difficult to engineer, but standard fault-tolerance schemes use seven or more physical qubits to encode each logical qubit, with still more qubits required for error correction. The large overhead makes it hard to experiment with
We explain how to combine holonomic quantum computation (HQC) with fault tolerant quantum error correction. This establishes the scalability of HQC, putting it on equal footing with other models of computation, while retaining the inherent robustness the method derives from its geometric nature.
We study how dynamical decoupling (DD) pulse sequences can improve the reliability of quantum computers. We prove upper bounds on the accuracy of DD-protected quantum gates and derive sufficient conditions for DD-protected gates to outperform unprote
The celebrated result of Fischer, Lynch and Paterson is the fundamental lower bound for asynchronous fault tolerant computation: any 1-crash resilient asynchronous agreement protocol must have some (possibly measure zero) probability of not terminati
The scalability of photonic implementations of fault-tolerant quantum computing based on Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) qubits is injured by the requirements of inline squeezing and reconfigurability of the linear optical network. In this work we pr
