Quantum Circuit Compilation Framework for Chip Compatibility
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The inefficiency in developing different quantum compilation programs for various quantum chips leads to repetitive work and reduced development efficiency, as each quantum chip requires unique programming due to its distinct instruction set.
Innovation Solution
A quantum circuit compilation method and framework that includes a circuit processing module and a topological mapping module, which determine the target quantum chip's structure and supported logic gates, process circuits to generate supportable circuits, and map them to operable circuits compatible with the chip, using configuration files for custom configurations.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If different quantum compilation programs are written for each quantum chip, then each chip can operate correctly with its specific instruction set, but development efficiency decreases due to repetitive work
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal quantum compilation framework that can handle multiple quantum chip instruction sets through a single program. The framework includes configurable modules that adapt to different chip architectures, eliminating the need to write separate compilation programs for each quantum chip while maintaining full compatibility with their specific instruction sets.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses configurable parameters and instruction set definitions that can be adjusted for different quantum chips. By changing configuration parameters rather than rewriting entire compilation programs, the system adapts to various chip architectures efficiently, resolving the contradiction between maintaining chip-specific compatibility and improving development productivity.
2Productivity
If a universal quantum compilation framework is implemented, then development efficiency improves through code reusability, but system complexity increases due to multiple module integrations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the quantum compilation framework into distinct, modular components including instruction set parsing modules, circuit optimization modules, and target-specific adaptation modules. This segmentation allows each module to be independently developed and maintained, reducing the perceived complexity while enabling high development efficiency through modular code reusability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces intermediate representation layers and abstraction interfaces that mediate between high-level quantum circuit descriptions and chip-specific instruction sets. These intermediary components hide the underlying complexity of multiple instruction set integrations, presenting a simplified interface to developers while managing the complexity internally.
