1Loss of energy
If QASM files are distributed across multiple quantum computers without optimization, then resource utilization increases, but performance deteriorates due to noise and variability in quantum systems
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of QASM files to calculate complexity scores and risk scores before distribution. The classical support optimizer parses the QASM file, calculates cyclomatic complexity for each block, and assesses risk scores based on quantum system characteristics. This preliminary characterization enables informed scheduling decisions that match task complexity with appropriate quantum system capabilities, preventing performance degradation from mismatched task-system assignments.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms where the classical support optimizer continuously monitors quantum system performance, noise levels, and error rates. Based on this feedback, the system dynamically adjusts task distribution decisions, selecting quantum computers that currently have optimal performance characteristics for the given task complexity. This feedback loop ensures reliable performance while optimizing resource utilization.
2Productivity
If complex QASM files are executed on available quantum systems, then task completion is achieved, but error rates increase due to system noise and limitations
Solution Approach 1:
The classical support optimizer serves as an intermediary between the QASM file and the quantum computer selection. It parses the QASM file to understand task requirements, calculates complexity metrics, and uses these metrics to select the most appropriate quantum system. This intermediary layer enables informed matching of task complexity with quantum system capabilities, reducing error rates by avoiding execution of overly complex tasks on noisy or limited systems while maintaining productivity through efficient task allocation.
3Productivity
If quantum computing resources are fully utilized, then processing capacity increases, but system stability decreases due to noise and variability
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements dynamic task distribution that adapts to changing quantum system conditions. The classical support optimizer continuously assesses quantum system availability, noise levels, and performance characteristics, adjusting task allocation in real-time. This dynamic approach allows full utilization of quantum computing resources while maintaining system stability by routing tasks to systems with optimal current conditions, preventing overload of noisy or unstable systems.
