Abstract: A quantum layout optimization method includes: determining target Hamiltonian parameters of a quantum device; determining an initial quantum layout of the quantum device and initial geometric parameters of the initial quantum layout; determining a target gradient of Hamiltonian parameters of the quantum device to geometric parameters of the initial quantum layout; and adjusting the initial geometric parameters based on the target gradient to have the Hamiltonian parameters of the quantum device be the target Hamiltonian parameters to obtain a target quantum layout.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with operating a graphics application are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus may include a general purpose processor, a graphics processor, and memory configured to hold a graphics commands buffer and a compositor command buffer. The apparatus may further include a compositor configured to: insert a plurality of viewport commands associated with a plurality of graphics functions into the compositor command buffer, and copy a plurality of graphics commands of the graphics functions, from the graphics command buffer to the compositor command buffer. The graphics functions may be associated with a graphics application, and share a common context with the compositor. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: An electronic transaction may be processed by receiving an order to execute a transaction electronically, identifying a format for the order, identifying a version of the format, retrieving a metasyntax with a rule related to the identified format and the identified version, the rule defining one or more acceptable arrangements of one or more elements in the transaction, relating the order to the metasyntax, determining whether the order conforms to the metasyntax, and forwarding the order for subsequent processing when the order conforms to the metasyntax.

Abstract: The invention relates to a three-in-one nail gun nail-box unit, comprising: a groove, on which a U-shaped nail can straddle and slide and one end of which is connected with the head of the nail gun; a nail clip, which is arranged on the periphery of the groove; a nail-pushing block, the end section of which is U-shaped and which is connected with the gun body via an elastomer in order to push the nails to move in the direction of the head of the nail gun; two sides of the groove are respectively enclosed by the nail clip, in order to form a first accommodation groove and a second accommodation groove for accommodating the nails to pass through, and the sidewalls of the accommodation grooves are oppositely provided with protrusions for defining the head of nails; a positioning block fixedly connected to the nail clip is arranged above the groove, and the bottom of the positioning block is matched with the top of the groove to define the position of the U-shaped nail; and the side of the positioning block is ma
