AI summary

In one example described herein a system can receive, by a gate analysis service, a quantum assembly language (QASM) file. The QASM file can define a quantum algorithm that can include logic gates that can be executed on a quantum computer system. The system can access, by the gate analysis service, a data repository that can include an estimated amount of quantum decoherence associated with each logic gate of a plurality of logic gates that includes the logic gates. The system can determine, by the gate analysis service, a prediction of an amount of quantum decoherence associated with executing at least one logic gate of the logic gates on the quantum computer system. Additionally, the system can adjust, by the gate analysis service, the QASM file to modify the prediction associated with executing the logic gates on the quantum computer system.
