Patent number: 11194554Abstract: Systems and methods that can facilitate a quantum adaptive execution method based on previous quantum circuits and its intermediate results. This can generate an optimized adaptive compilation methodology for a specific backend and the previous quantum circuits dependents and thus redirect by the job dispatcher to the right quantum backend. Some of the quantum circuits can be dependent on other quantum circuits based on the intermediate results produced by the previous circuits. Hence, it is valuable that a system can manage the optimization of circuits based on its dependencies and by the results generated by the previous quantum circuits. In this way, the system can get an optimal result for a quantum circuit and inject it to the compiler unit to generate an adaptive compilation result. The resulted post-processing unit is the one in charge to apply this logic and manage the input/output of data to push it in the compiler units and the job dispatcher.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2020Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Jay Michael Gambetta, Ismael Faro Sertage, Francisco Jose Martin Fernandez
