Yonsei University has deployed IBM's Nighthawk r2 processor as the first international on-premises quantum system outside the US, marking a significant milestone for localized high-throughput quantum research. This upgrade directly accelerates specific scientific workflows in bio-quantum initiatives by reducing shot-repetition times and increasing circuit execution rates to 100,000 per second. The move underscores the growing trend of institutions securing dedicated quantum hardware to bypass cloud queue limitations and advance error-mitigated algorithms locally.
