DESCRIPTION:In order to study complex quantum many-body systems\, a vigoro
 us program has formed in recent years to take advantage of opportunities i
 n quantum simulation and quantum computation\, building upon the vision of
  Richard Feynman. Such activities have also started in nuclear and high-en
 ergy physics\, hoping to bring new and powerful experimental and computati
 onal tools to address a range of challenging problems in strongly-interact
 ing systems in the Standard Model. With the ultimate goal of simulating st
 rong dynamics of quarks and gluons at the heart of the matter in and out o
 f equilibrium\, significant progress has been made in theoretical and algo
 rithmic developments for\, and hardware implementation of\, a number of la
 ttice gauge theories in recent years. In this talk\, I introduce analog\, 
 digital\, and hybrid analog-digital approaches to the simulation of quantu
 m field theories\, along with a few illustrative examples. I will further 
 comment on the prospect of co-development of "quantum" tools and hardware 
 for simulating quantum chromodynamics.
