Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a media temperature manager receiving operating temperature measurements for a memory subsystem. The media temperature manager generates an average temperature using the operating temperature measurements. The media temperature manager determines that the average temperature satisfies a first value for a dynamic temperature threshold. The dynamic temperature threshold indicates a temperature at which the memory subsystem throttles media operations. The media temperature manager increases the dynamic temperature threshold to a second value in response to the average temperature satisfying the first value for the dynamic temperature threshold.

Abstract: A technique for merging, via lattice surgery, a color code and a surface code, and subsequentially decoding one or more rounds of stabilizer measurements of the merged code is disclosed. Such a technique can be applied to bottom-up fault-tolerant magic state preparation protocol such that an encoded magic state can be teleported from a color code to a surface code. Decoding the stabilizer measurements of the merged code requires a decoding algorithm specific to the merged code in which error correction involving qubits at the border between the surface and color code portions of the merged code is performed. Error correction involving qubits within the surface code portion and within color code portion, respectively, may additionally be performed. In some cases, the magic state is prepared in a color code via a technique for encoding a Clifford circuit design problem as an SMT decision problem.
