From QCCD Trapped-Ion Hardware to Quantum Compilers: Capabilities, Architectures, and Compilation

Shuttling-based trapped-ion quantum computers (QCCD) rank among the most mature hardware platforms. Existing and envisaged devices exhibit architectural differences in terms of register layout and connectivity. Platform-specific compilers are required to translate quantum circuits into resource-optimized hardware-level...

Hardware-aware Compilation for Different Quantum Computing Platforms

Know Your Qubits, Know Your Users: Personas for Quantum Software

This work conducts a stakeholder-based analysis to identify personas of quantum software as a means of creating meaningful, user-tailored quantum software.

Why Are We Unrolling? The Importance of Structured Quantum Programs for Compilation

This work presents important patterns and algorithms from fault-tolerant quantum applications which admit a structured representation that it is argued is crucial to preserve, and sets a challenge to the community to compile such representations without unrolling them into straight-line quantum circuits.

Teaching Quantum Design Automation with Block-Based Programming

As quantum circuits grow beyond small toy examples, preparing them for execution on physical devices becomes increasingly complex. Design automation is therefore essential for scalable quantum computing: Compilation procedures optimize resource requirements and transform circuits to a format compatible with specific ha...
