Abstract: An apparatus can be configured to control a quantum memory of a quantum computer. The quantum memory can have a first qubit. The apparatus can comprise: a first-classical-register; a first-clock; a first-machine-language-buffer, that stores a first-machine-language-circuit; and a first-implementer. The first-machine-language-circuit includes: a first-timestamp; a first-qubit-identifier unique to the first qubit; a first-qubit-control-instruction; and a first-protected-location of the first-classical-register. The first-implementer can be configured to: read the first-machine-language-circuit from the first-machine-language-buffer; and read a first-control-value from the first-protected-location of the first-classical-register, the first-control-value can be configured to encode either a first-execute-instruction or a first-alternate-control-instruction.

Abstract: A computing system can be configured to execute a classical-quantum hybrid algorithm. The computing system may comprise a classical computer comprising one or more classically-executable-nodes of the classical-quantum hybrid algorithm; and a quantum computer comprising a quantum-processor-unit. The quantum computer is operatively coupled to the classical computer. The one or more classically-executable-nodes may be configured to send a first-circuit and a second-circuit to the quantum computer for evaluation. The quantum computer may be configured to: receive the first-circuit and the second-circuit; evaluate the first-circuit, using the quantum-processor-unit, to determine a first-circuit-evaluation; and send the first-circuit-evaluation to the classical computer. The one or more classically-executable-nodes may be configured to: receive the first-circuit-evaluation; and process the first-circuit-evaluation during a first-time-interval.

Abstract: A method of ranking and suggesting objects, such as tags, is described in which a group of objects are suggested to a user in relation to a particular information object, such as a web page or file. A user either selects one of the suggestions or enters an alternative object and on receipt of data identifying the particular object selected by the user, the group of suggestions is updated based on whether the object selected by the user was one of the suggestions or not. The updating of the group may also be based on other factors, such as ranking parameters associated with each of the objects.
