Solution Overview

Problem

As quantum computing becomes more prevalent, there is a need for efficient and accurate real-time allocation of qubits, while also ensuring secure access and preventing overuse of qubits.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a qubit registry namespace manager that creates namespaces within a qubit registry, allowing quantum processes to access specific subsets of qubits while preventing access to other subsets, thereby managing quantum resource allocation and ensuring secure access.

1Reliability

If qubit registry namespaces are created to control access to qubits, then security and allocation accuracy are improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvequbit allocation accuracyVSAvoidnamespace management complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The qubit registry is segmented into multiple namespaces, each isolating qubit access for specific quantum processes. This segmentation enables accurate qubit allocation tracking and security control while maintaining manageable complexity through hierarchical organization of qubit resources

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Namespaces act as intermediary structures between quantum processes and the qubit registry. These intermediaries simplify the relationship by providing a layered access model where processes interact with qubits through namespace abstractions rather than direct registry access, reducing overall system complexity

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If namespaces subdivide qubit resources to control access, then secure visibility is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesecure visibilityVSAvoidqubit access simplicity

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The namespace manager automatically creates and manages namespaces based on quantum process requirements without manual intervention. Processes declare their qubit needs and the system automatically allocates appropriate namespaces, making secure visibility accessible while maintaining operational simplicity

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Namespaces serve multiple functions simultaneously: they provide secure visibility control, enable resource isolation, facilitate allocation tracking, and maintain access simplicity through a unified interface. This multi-functionality resolves the contradiction by consolidating multiple needs into a single operational mechanism

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

A quantum computing device obtains, from a first quantum instruction file (QIF) corresponding to a first quantum process, an amount of qubits required by the first quantum process. The quantum computing device creates a first namespace within a qubit registry comprising a plurality of qubit registry entries each corresponding to a qubit of a plurality of qubits, the first namespace referring to a first subset of qubits of the plurality of qubits, the first subset of qubits comprising at least the amount of qubits required by the first quantum process. The quantum computing device inserts an identifier for the first namespace into the first QIF. The quantum computing device causes the qubit registry to provide the first quantum process with access to the first namespace when the first QIF is executed.
