  • Publication number: 20210117512
    Abstract: A computing device, including memory storing a quantum computing device model. The quantum computing device model may include a plurality of quantum computing device components having a respective plurality of actual boundaries, including a boundary between a superconductor and a semiconductor. The computing device may further include a processor configured to receive, via an application-program interface (API), a nonuniform grid having a nonuniform spacing along at least a first spatial dimension. The processor may receive, via the API, a Schrödinger equation including a Hamiltonian having one or more operators. The processor may discretize the quantum computing device model using the nonuniform grid. The processor may compute a finite-difference solution estimate to the Schrödinger equation over the quantum computing device model as discretized with the nonuniform grid. The processor may output the finite-difference solution estimate via the API.

  • Publication number: 20210117844
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed technology concern transforming a high-level quantum-computer program to one or more symbolic expressions. Because the transformations lead to symbolic expressions in the compiled code, one can extract these to arrive at symbolic resource estimates for the quantum program. In cases where these transformations do not yield closed-form solutions, they can still be evaluated many orders of magnitude faster than it was possible using other resource estimation tools. Having access to such symbolic or near-symbolic expressions not only greatly improves the performance of accuracy management and resource estimation, but also better informs quantum software developers of the bottlenecks that may be present in the quantum program. In turn, the underlying quantum-computer program can be improved as appropriate.

  • Publication number: 20210120649
    Abstract: A load control device may utilize a feedback signal representative of an average magnitude of the load current conducted through an electrical load to control the amount of power delivered to the electrical load. The feedback signal may be generated based on a sense signal that is electrically isolated from the line voltage input of the load control device. Depending on the operational characteristics of the electrical load, the feedback signal may be generated using different techniques. In one example technique, the sense signal may be integrated and filtered to derive the feedback signal. In another example technique, the sense signal may be used in conjunction with an input power of the load control device and an efficiency parameter of the load control device to derive the feedback signal. In yet another example technique, values derived from the foregoing two techniques may be blended together to obtain the feedback signal.

  • Publication number: 20210119810
    Abstract: Described herein is a system and method for validating media integrity using asymmetric key cryptography utilizing a public/private cryptographic key pair. The private key is kept secret and is known to an originator and/or publisher of a media file. The public key is added to the media file and is used to validate integrity of the media file, that is, that content of the media file (e.g., portion(s), frame(s)) has not been altered since publication of the media file. By validating integrity of the media file, strong proof that the media file came from an owner of the keypair (e.g., had possession of the private key) can be obtained, for example, resolving issues of trust and/or authenticity common in altered content. In some embodiments, information regarding an origin of the content can further be determined.

The load control device may comprise a control circuit configured to activate an inverter circuit during an active state period and deactivate the inverter circuit during an inactive state period. In one mode, the control circuit may adjust the average magnitude of the load current by adjusting the inactive state period while keeping the active state period constant. In another mode, the control circuit may adjust the average magnitude of the load current by adjusting the active state period while keeping the inactive state period constant. In yet another mode, the control circuit may keep a duty cycle of the inverter circuit constant and regulate the average magnitude of the load current by adjusting a target load current conducted through the electrical load.
