Research Question: How can we create a framework for programming quantum computers that is both intuitive and efficient?
Main Research Question: How can we design a programming language and architecture that effectively bridges the gap between classical and quantum computing?


Methodology: The authors propose a novel approach to quantum programming by creating a high-level quantum language that complements a general-purpose classical language with a set of quantum primitives. This language is designed to compactly express existing quantum algorithms and facilitate the design of future ones. The proposed implementation scheme involves a run-time interpreter that byte-codes quantum operations and pipes them to a quantum device controller (or simulator).
Methodology: The authors propose a template high-level quantum language that complements a generic general-purpose classical language with a set of quantum primitives. This language can compactly express existing quantum algorithms and reduce them to sequences of elementary operations, making it easy for programmers to work with.


Results: The authors claim that their proposed language can compactly express existing quantum algorithms and believe it can facilitate the design of future ones. They also highlight the general scheme's hooks for optimization modules, both dependent on and independent from the underlying quantum device.
Results: The authors present a preliminary implementation of their ideas using the C++ language. This implementation demonstrates the feasibility of their approach and its potential to simplify quantum circuit construction.


Implications: This research contributes to the ongoing efforts in quantum computing by providing a potential solution to the lack of a standardized, user-friendly programming framework for quantum computers. The proposed language and implementation scheme could simplify the process of developing and coding quantum algorithms, making quantum computing more accessible to a wider audience. Additionally, the modular nature of the design allows for future improvements and optimizations to be easily incorporated.
Implications: This work contributes to the ongoing efforts to develop a practical framework for quantum programming. It provides a potential solution to the challenge of efficiently translating high-level quantum algorithms into low-level primitives, which is crucial for the development of quantum computing hardware and software.

Title: Towards an Architecture for Quantum Programming

Main Research Question: How can we design a programming language and architecture that effectively bridges the gap between classical and quantum computing?

Methodology: The authors propose a template high-level quantum language that complements a generic general-purpose classical language with a set of quantum primitives. This language can compactly express existing quantum algorithms and reduce them to sequences of elementary operations, making it easy for programmers to work with.

Results: The authors present a preliminary implementation of their ideas using the C++ language. This implementation demonstrates the feasibility of their approach and its potential to simplify quantum circuit construction.

Implications: This work contributes to the ongoing efforts to develop a practical framework for quantum programming. It provides a potential solution to the challenge of efficiently translating high-level quantum algorithms into low-level primitives, which is crucial for the development of quantum computing hardware and software.
