A method of simulating a molecular system using a hybrid computer is provided. The hybrid computer comprises a classical computer and a quantum computer. The method uses atomic coordinates {right arrow over (R)}_n and atomic charges Z_n of a molecular system to compute a ground state energy of the molecular system using the quantum computer. The ground state energy is returned to the classical computer and the atomic coordinates are geometrically optimized on the classical computer based on information about the returned ground state energy of the atomic coordinates in order to produce a new set of atomic coordinates {right arrow over (R)}′_n for the molecular system. These steps are optionally repeated in accordance with a refinement algorithm until a predetermined termination condition is achieved

A method for optimizing efficiency and power consumption in a hybrid computer system is disclosed. The hybrid computer system may comprise one or more front-end nodes connected to a multi-node computer system. Portions of an application may be offloaded from the front-end nodes to the multi-node computer system. By building historical profiles of the applications running on the multi-node computer system, the system can analyze the trade offs between power consumption and performance. For example, if running the application on the multi-node computer system cuts the run time by 5% but increases power consumption by 20% it may be more advantageous to simply run the entire application on the front-end.

Systems and methods described herein provide for a process for managing continuity of experience between operation of a hybrid computer system in the connected state and the slate component independently in the disconnected state. Embodiments further provide for the continuity of experience for devices operating under multiple processors or multiple platforms. According to embodiments, one or more states and conditions of the connected hybrid computer system may be synchronized with the slate component when the slate component is disconnected from the hybrid computer system. Alternatively, embodiments provide for the synchronization of one or more states and conditions of the independent slate component with the hybrid computer system responsive to connecting the slate component to the hybrid computer system. Non-limiting examples of states and conditions according to embodiments are web pages, applications, documents, lists of recently opened files and web pages, and web browser active tabs.

A protective case for a hybrid computer having a removable screen and a separable keyboard. The case has a base panel, a lid and a flexible hinge attached to the rear of the base panel and separably connected to the rear of the lid, or attached to the rear of the lid and separably connected to the rear of the base panel, or separably connected to both the rear of the lid and the rear of the base panel. The protective case has separable means for attaching an interior surface of the lid to the removable screen of the computer and separable means for attaching an interior surface of the base panel to the keyboard. The lid can remain attached to the removable screen and the base panel can remain attached to the keyboard when the removable screen is separated from the keyboard.

A combined language-compiler that provides for the efficient compilation process of hybrid computer code written using a plurality of computer languages by splitting the hybrid code in such a way that each code statement is optimally independently compilable. The designer specifies both computation and communication between different hybrid code modules.

A hybrid computer for generating samples employs a digital computer operable to perform post-processing. An analog computer may be communicatively coupled to the digital computer. The analog computer may be operable to return one or more samples corresponding to low-energy configurations of a Hamiltonian. Methods of generating samples from a quantum Boltzmann distribution to train a Quantum Boltzmann Machine, and from a classical Boltzmann distribution to train a Restricted Boltzmann Machine, are also taught. Computational systems and methods permit processing problems having size and/or connectivity greater than, and/or at least not fully provided by, a working graph of an analog processor. The approach may include determining preparatory biases toward a first classical spin configuration, evolving the analog processor in a first direction; evolving the analog processor in a second direction and evolving the analog processor in the first direction until the analog processor reaches a second classical spin configuration.

The present invention provides a computer and a method to realize the coupling between computers. The computer includes: a first interface used to connect with a second computer; a data interactive module, connected with the second computer through the first interface, which is used to enable the second computer to access the data interactive module when the first interface is connected with the second computer, in which the access includes fetching data from the data interactive module and storing data in the data interactive module; a processing module connected with the data interactive module, which is used to communicate data to the second computer through the data interactive module when the first interface is connected with the second computer. It can conveniently utilize two computers to form a hybrid computer system using this technical solution.

A method for computer-assisted planning of a transplant surgery is provided. The method includes obtaining a computer-readable representation of a donor and recipient skeletal fragment; determining surgical cutting planes on the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment from which a portion of the donor skeletal fragment from the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment will be harvested; determining virtual cutting guides; performing a virtual osteotomy to separate the portion of the donor skeletal fragment from the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment from a remainder portion of the donor skeletal fragment based on a position of the virtual cutting guides that are attached to the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment; positioning the donor skeletal fragment within a transplant region of the recipient skeletal fragment; and creating a hybrid computer-readable representation comprising the recipient skeletal fragment and the portion of the donor skeletal.

A method and apparatus is provided to reconstruct a collective image of a multiple method/geometry imaging system (e.g., a hybrid computed tomography system having energy-integrating detectors arranged in a third-generation geometry and photon-counting detectors arranged in a fourth generation geometry), wherein a splitting-based iterative algorithm using modified dual variables is used in the image reconstruction. Whereas a separate image for each method/geometry of the multiple method/geometry imaging system can be obtained by solving the distinct system-matrix equation corresponding to each respective method/geometry, the collective image is obtained by simultaneously solving a collective optimization problem including all respective system-matrix. The collective image is obtained more efficiently using variable splitting to subdivide the optimization into subproblems that are solved in an iterative fashion. For some applications, the collective image can be further improved by including a beam-hardening correction step.

A hybrid computer numerical control (CNC) machining center and a machining method thereof are provided. The hybrid CNC machining center has at least a cutting tool head, a laser cladding tool head, a laser surface heat treatment tool head, and a computer numerical control unit. The cutting tool head, the laser cladding tool head, and the laser surface heat treatment tool head are alternately installed in a tool holder of the hybrid CNC machining center. Users can accomplish cutting, laser cladding, and laser surface heat treatment operations for a work-piece just in one single machine, so that the work-piece is unnecessary to be moved between different machines. Therefore, the steps and the process time of the machining operations are substantially simplified.
