The First Agency Agreement Algorithm Platform to sell JijZept in JapanJij Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Yu Yamashiro; hereinafter "Jij") has entered into a partnership with ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Tatsushi Shingu) to enhance ITOCHU Techno-Solutions’s quantum computing support service, "Cubit X (formerly known as CUVIC for Quantum)." As part of this collaboration, Jij has signed its first domestic agency agreement with ITOCHU Techno-Solutions for the next-generation quantum and optimization software development platform "JijZept," which will be available starting March 31.JijZept is a quantum algorithm development platform featuring an intuitive, equation-based interface. It converts mathematical expressions related to combinatorial optimization problems into formulas suitable for quantum computers and automatically generates efficient programs for various quantum computing methods, including gate-based and annealing-based approaches. By leveraging an extensive database of computational cases and datasets, JijZept learns optimal parameter patterns, eliminating the need for complex mathematical modeling and parameter tuning that traditionally required expert manual intervention. This significantly improves the efficiency of algorithm development, saving valuable time.ITOCHU Techno-Solutions offers Cubit X, a comprehensive suite of quantum computing support services. This includes a cloud-based platform integrating multiple quantum computers, managed services, assessment services, and an algorithm development environment. By integrating JijZept into Cubit X, the collaboration enables end-to-end support for application development leveraging quantum computing. Users can benefit from a streamlined process without requiring advanced programming expertise, potentially reducing development time by up to 70%.Jij has been advancing research and development in mathematical optimization and quantum computing while fostering use cases both domestically and internationally. Through this partnership with ITOCHU Techno-Solutions, Jij aims to accelerate the real-world implementation of quantum computing and provide an environment where more businesses can leverage quantum technologies.〈JijZept Interface Overview〉About Jij Inc.Company Name: Jij Inc.CEO: Yu YamashiroAddress: INDEST Room 403, Innovation Center, Tokyo Science University Tamachi Campus 3-3-6 Shibaura, Minato-ku, Tokyo 108-0023, JapanCorporate Website: https://www.j-ij.com/enFounded: November 2018Business Description: Sales and provision of optimization solutions for enterprises utilizing quantum-classical hybrid technologyContactInformation: Jij Inc.
