    La Computación de Alto Rendimiento (HPC) aplica diferentes técnicas a aplicaciones complejas o de gran volumen, apoyándose tanto en software como en hardware paralelos, para reducir su tiempo de ejecución en comparación con su ejecución en una computadora simple. Por otro lado, la Computación Cuántica (QC) surge como un nuevo paradigma que aprovecha las propiedades de la Mecánica Cuántica para la computación. La QC tiene una naturaleza inherentemente paralela y se espera que resuelva algunos problemas más rápido que la computación clásica. En este artículo se realiza una revisión bibliográfica para examinar el punto de vista de diferentes autores respecto a la relación entre HPC y QC. El objetivo es determinar la tendencia de esta relación: ¿QC reemplazará a la computación HPC clásica? o ¿Se complementarán entre sí? Además, si fueran herramientas complementarias, se busca responder: ¿Cómo podrían integrarse?¿Cómo accederán los usuarios a estos recursos?.

    High Performance Computing (HPC) applies different techniques to complex or large-volume applications, relying on both parallel software and hardware, to reduce their execution time compared to running them on a simple computer. On the other hand, Quantum Computing (QC) emerges as a new paradigm that leverages the properties of Quantum Mechanics for computation. QC has an inherently parallel nature and it is expected to solve some problems faster than classical computing. This paper carries out a bibliographic review to examine the point of view of different authors regarding the relationship between HPC and QC. The objective is to determine the trend of this relationship: Will QC replace classical HPC computing? or Will they complement each other? Also, if they were complementary tools, the aim is to answer: How could they be integrated? How will users access these resources?
