Patent number: 12524696Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and/or computer program products to facilitate noise characterization of a two-qubit unitary are provided. A system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise an execution component that executes a two-qubit quantum circuit comprising a preparation of an initial state for a two-qubit Pauli operator and an application of one or more circuit layers, wherein each circuit layer comprises an application of a pair of random gates each selected from I, X, Y or Z, application of the two-qubit unitary having a rotation angle modified to have a 50% probability of being each of positive and negative, and another application of the first random gate and the second random gate. A fitting component employs curve fitting of an expectation value resulting from the execution.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2022Date of Patent: January 13, 2026Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: David Layden, Youngseok Kim, Riddhi Swaroop Gupta

Publication number: 20020065815Abstract: Systems and methods that retrieve at least one data element from a database include a database and a plurality of predefined query procedures, each predefined query procedure referencing an inquiry path, entering a query having a query procedure and at least one parameter, locating the query procedure and the referenced inquiry path, and using the referenced inquiry path with the parameter to retrieve at least one data element from the database, that is the result of the query. Generally, the system will be used to retrieve data for entity-relation databases (ERDBs) using Structured Query Language (SQL) queries, but that is not required.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2001Publication date: May 30, 2002Applicant: Xcelerix, Inc.Inventor: David Layden

Patent number: 6310783Abstract: An electrical cabinet or chassis for an uninterruptible power system (UPS system) includes universal bays or slots that can receive either power modules or battery backs. The back plane of the slot has separate connector terminals for battery packs and power modules. The slots may also receive battery chargers if so desired. All of the slots of a chassis can be utilized to full capacity before another cabinet needs to be employed. The cabinet is also readily adaptable and can be easily reconfigured as desired without particular concern as to the number of power modules or battery packs that are being used. Sensors are provided which indicate the capacity of the cabinet that has been used (e.g. the number of slots still open and not used by a power module or a battery pack).Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2000Date of Patent: October 30, 2001Assignee: Powerware CorporationInventors: Cary Winch, David Layden, Craig Edevold
