  • Quantum computing program compilation using cached compiled quantum circuit files
    Patent number: 11977957
    Abstract: A quantum computing service may store, in a cache, one or more compiled files of respective quantum functions included in one or more quantum computing programs received one or more customers. When the quantum computing service receives another quantum computing program, from the same or a different customer, the quantum computing service may determine whether the quantum computing program may include one or more of the quantum functions corresponding to the compiled files in the cache. If so, the quantum computing service may use the compiled files in the cache to compile the quantum computing program.
    Type: Grant

  • ASSISTED COMPOSITION OF QUANTUM ALGORITHMS
    Publication number: 20240086158
    Abstract: A quantum programming environment may include an assisted composition system to assist the composition of quantum objects. The assisted composition system may receive a partial portion of a quantum object that is being composed but not yet fully composed by a user. The assisted composition system may determine a first abstract representation of the partial portion of the quantum object being composed. The assisted composition system may determine that the first abstract representation resembles at least a first portion of a second abstract representation of a stored quantum object stored in a library for the quantum programming environment. The assisted composition system may obtain a second portion of the stored quantum object from the library and provide it to the user as a next portion to the partial portion of the quantum object being composed.

  • DETERMINATION OF QUANTUM CIRCUIT COMPILATION PASSES AND/OR COMPILATION PARAMETERS OPTIMIZED FOR ONE OR MORE PERFORMANCE METRICS
    Publication number: 20230099621
    Abstract: A quantum computing service includes a quantum circuit compilation module that uses received information about quantum processing units (QPUs) along with information about a quantum circuit to be compiled in order to generate an optimized ordered list of compilation passes to be performed to compile the quantum circuit for execution on a given QPU.
