The 2nd Workshop on HPC/AI Integration with Quantum Computing/Networking (HAIQ 2026) explores the integration of high-performance computing (HPC) and AI architecture with quantum technologies to deliver practical and scalable systems. In addition to algorithms, programming models/compilers, noise mitigation and fault tolerance, and hardware-software co-design, this year’s focus expands to distributed platforms: quantum communication networking protocols, resource management across networked quantum nodes, and architectures for distributed quantum computing. By fostering a dialog between classical distributed-systems, architecture, HPC/AI, and quantum-information communities, HAIQ will identify the architectural and systems support needed to move beyond proof-of-principle physical devices toward robust, large-scale quantum networks and end-to-end hybrid workflows. It also aims to bridge the gap between the classical high-performance architecture community and the quantum information community.
