Integration of Quantum Accelerators with High Performance Computing—A Review of Quantum Programming Tools

Amr Elsharkawy, Xiao-Ting Michelle To, Philipp Seitz +9 more

Quantum computing (QC) introduces a novel mode of computation with the possibility of greater computational power that remains to be exploitedpresenting exciting opportunities for high-performance computing (HPC) applications. However, recent advancements in the field have made clear that QC does not supplant conventional HPC, but can rather be incorporated into current heterogeneous HPC infrastructures as an additional accelerator, thereby enabling the optimal utilization of both paradigms. The desire for such integration significantly affects the development of software for quantum computers, which in turn influences the necessary software infrastructure. To date, previous review articles have investigated various quantum programming tools (QPTs) (such as languages, libraries, frameworks) in their ability to program, compile, and execute quantum circuits. However, the integration effort with classical HPC frameworks or systems has not been addressed. This study aims to characterize existing QPTs from an HPC perspective, investigating if existing QPTs have the potential to be efficiently integrated with classical computing models and determining where work is still required. This work structures a set of criteria into an analysis blueprint that enables HPC scientists to assess whether a QPT is suitable for a high-performance computing quantum computing (HPCQC) environment.

Quantum Programming Paradigms and Description Languages

Sonia López Alarcón, Elaine Wong, Travis S. Humble +1 more

This article offers perspective on quantum computing programming languages, as well as their emerging runtimes and algorithmic modalities. With the scientific high-performance computing (HPC) community as a target audience, we describe the current state of the art in the field, and outline programming paradigms for scientific workflows. One take-home message is that there is significant work required to first refine the notion of the quantum processing unit in order to integrate in the HPC environments. Programming for today’s quantum computers is making significant strides toward modern HPC-compatible workflows, but key challenges still face the field.

MQSS Client: Interface for Decoupling Quantum Programming Interfaces

Ercüment Kaya, Muhammad Nufail Farooqi, Minh Chung +3 more

Quantum Computing (QC) is an emerging technology that requires customized tools, such as software stacks and programming interfaces. However, currently, the tools are generally tightly coupled and exhibit limited interoperability. This, in particular, affects High Performance Computing (HPC) facilities and data centers, which are required to support multiple programming interfaces. In this paper, we introduce MQSS Client, a unifying, context-aware access layer and programming library that decouples the programming interfaces and the underlying compilation and runtime stack. MQSS Client aims to support all existing programming interfaces by providing abstractions for resources, jobs, and results. It provides two access modes to accommodate the varied needs of remote and HPC users. Thus, interoperability between software stacks and programming interfaces increases.
