During more than ten years, the Barcelona Supercomputing Center has been receiving undergraduate, master and PhD students, and providing them training and skills to develop a successful career. Many of those students are now researchers and experts at BSC and in other international research institutions. In fact, the number of students has never decreased. On the contrary, their number and research areas have grown and we noticed that these highly qualified students, especially the PhD candidates, needed a forum to present their findings and fruitfully exchange ideas. As a result, in 2014, the first BSC Doctoral Symposium was born. Last year, a total of 34 presentations were given, 32 posters were exhibited, a two days training on an Introduction to Scientific Writing was conducted; and we reached more than 90 attendees. Furthermore, we opened the participation to students all over the world and have succeeded enrolling students from different countries In this third edition of the BSC Doctoral Symposium we have planned a keynote speaker’ talk, and two extensive training

  • QUANTUM COMPUTER and QUANTUM ALGORITHM for TRAVELLING SALESMAN PROBLEM Utpal Roy, Sanchita Pal Chawdhury, Susmita Nayek
    ISSN: 0974-3308, VOL. 2, NO. 1, JUNE 2009 © SRIMCA 54 QUANTUM COMPUTER AND QUANTUM ALGORITHM FOR TRAVELLING SALESMAN PROBLEM Utpal Roy, Sanchita Pal Chawdhury, Susmita Nayek ABSTRACT Depending upon the extraordinary power of Quantum Computing Algorithms various branches like Quantum Cryptography, Quantum Information Technology, Quantum Teleportation have emerged [1-4]. It is thought that this power of Quantum Computing Algorithms can also be successfully applied to many combinatorial optimization problems. In this article, a class of combinatorial optimization problem is chosen as case study under Quantum Computing. These problems are widely believed to be unsolvable in polynomial time. Mostly it provides suboptimal solutions in finite time using best known classical algorithms. Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) is one such problem to be studied here. A great deal of effort has already been devoted towards devising efficient algorithms that can solve the problem [5-18]. Moreover, the methods of finding solutions for the TSP with Artificial Neural Network and Genetic Algorithms [5-8] do not provide the exact solution to the problems for all the cases, excepting a few. A successful attempt has been made to have a deterministic solution for TSP by applying the power of Quantum Computing Algorithm. Keywords: Quantum Computing, Travelling Salesman Problem, Quantum algorithms. 1. INTRODUCTION A quantum computer is a device that can arbitrarily manipulate the quantum state of a part or itself. The field of quantum computation is largely a body of theoretical promises for some impressively fast algorithms which could be executed on quantum computers. The field of quantum computing has advanced remarkably in the past few years since Shor [1] presented his quantum mechanical algorithm for efficient prime factorization of very large numbers, potentially providing an exponential speedup over the fastness on known classical algorithm.

We review various models of quantum Turing machine, quantum circuits and quantum random access machine (QRAM) along with their classical counter- parts. We also provide an introduction to quantum programming languages, which are developed using the QRAM model. We review the syntax of several existing quantum programming languages and discuss their features and limitations. I.

Thus we neglect some model of computational device. This paper introduces models which are not directly related to this area (e.g. the basic models of computation used in quantum in- quantum automata or topological quantum computa- formation theory. We show how these models are defined tion). by extending classical models. We start by introducing some basic facts about clas- A. Quantum information theory sical and quantum Turing machines. These models help to understand how useful quantum computing can be.

  • One-Way Quantum Computer Simulation
    One-Way Quantum Computer Simulation Eesa Nikahd, Mahboobeh Houshmand, Morteza Saheb Zamani, Mehdi Sedighi Quantum Design Automation Lab Department of Computer Engineering and Information Technology Amirkabir University of Technology Tehran, Iran {e.nikahd, houshmand, szamani, msedighi}@aut.ac.ir Abstract— In one-way quantum computation (1WQC) model, universal quantum computations are performed using measurements to designated qubits in a highly entangled state. The choices of bases for these measurements as well as the structure of the entanglements specify a quantum algorithm. As scalable and reliable quantum computers have not been implemented yet, quantum computation simulators are the only widely available tools to design and test quantum algorithms. However, simulating the quantum computations on a standard classical computer in most cases requires exponential memory and time. In this paper, a general direct simulator for 1WQC, called OWQS, is presented. Some techniques such as qubit elimination, pattern reordering and implicit simulation of actions are used to considerably reduce the time and memory needed for the simulations. Moreover, our simulator is adjusted to simulate the measurement patterns with a generalized flow without calculating the measurement probabilities which is called extended one-way quantum computation simulator (EOWQS). Experimental results validate the feasibility of the proposed simulators and that OWQS and EOWQS are faster as compared with the well-known quantum circuit simulators, i.e., QuIDDPro and libquantum for simulating 1WQC model1. Keywords-Quantum Computing, 1WQC, Simulation 1 INTRODUCTION Quantum information [2] is an interdisciplinary field which combines quantum physics, mathematics and computer science. Quantum computers have some advantages over the classical ones, e.g., they give dramatic speedups for tasks such as integer factorization [3] and database search [4].

  • Quantum Computer Simulation Using CUDA Alexander Smith Khashayar Khavari University of Toronto Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
    1 Quantum Computer Simulation Using CUDA Alexander Smith Khashayar Khavari University of toronto Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering I. INTRODUCTION Quantum computing has captured the attention of many researchers in the past decade. While researchers in the fields of electrical engineering and physics have concentrated on realizing a physical machine that satisfies the criteria of a quantum computing, others in the research community are developing algorithms that can take advantage of such machines. Through exploitation of the inherit superposition observed at the quantum level, many interesting quantum algorithms (q-algorithms) have been developed. These range from simple communication between two points using super-dense coding to factorization of a large number into its prime components through Shor’s algorithm. Despite the dedication and hard work of physicists and engineers, a physically stable quantum computer is still a dream to be fulfilled. To deal with this problem and to encourage development of more q-algorithms, it has been proposed to simulate the functionality of a quantum computer using a classical one. Quantum computer simulation allows researchers to validate existing quantum algorithms without the need for a physical quantum computer. However, the inherent complexity of a quantum system results in extremely time-consuming simulations on a classical machine. In a physical quantum computer, quantum superposition of states allows the simultaneous manipulation of all possible combinations of a set of bits in a single operation, speeding up many algorithms exponentially when compared to a classical computer. This is main challenge that a classical simulator has to face. Because of this, quantum algorithms, which are supposed to reduce exponential processing times to linear ones, run more slowly than their classical counterparts when simulated.

  • Q# , a Quantum Computation Package for the .NET Platform
    Q# , a quantum computation package for the .NET platform A. S. Tolba, M. Z. Rashad, and M. A. El-Dosuky Dept. of Computer Science, Faculty of Computers and Information Sciences, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Egypt. [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] October 2007 ABSTRACT Quantum computing is a promising approach of computation that is based on equations from Quantum Mechanics. A simulator for quantum algorithms must be capable of performing heavy mathematical matrix transforms. The design of the simulator itself takes one of three forms: Quantum Turing Machine, Network Model or circuit model of connected gates or, Quantum Programming Language, yet, some simulators are hybrid. We studied previous simulators and then we adopt features from three simulators of different implementation languages, different paradigms, and for different platforms. They are Quantum Computing Language (QCL), QUASI, and Quantum Optics Toolbox for Matlab 5. Our simulator for quantum algorithms takes the form of a package or a programming library for Quantum computing, with a case study showing the ability of using it in the circuit model. The .NET is a promising platform for computing. VB.NET is an easy, high productive programming language with the full power and functionality provided by the .NET framework. It is highly readable, writeable, and flexible language, compared to another language such as C#.NET in many aspects. We adopted VB.NET although its shortage in built-in mathematical complex and matrix operations, compared to Matlab. For implementation, we first built a mathematical core of matrix operations. Then, we built a quantum core which contains: basic qubits and register operations, basic 1D, 2D, and 3D quantum gates, and multi-view visualization of the quantum state, then a window for demos to show you how to use and get the most of the package.

    Technical University of Crete Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering Techniques for Simulating Quantum Computers by Koufogiannakis Christos This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for the Diploma Degree in Electronic and Computer Engineering Committee: Samoladas Vasilis (supervisor) Dollas Apostolos Petrakis Euripides June 2004 Abstract The first algorithm of practical interest that takes advantage of quantum mechanics was proposed by Peter Shor in 1994. Shor described a polynomial time quantum algorithm for factoring integers. Factoring is considered to be a hard problem for classical computers. Indeed, the efficiency of the famous public-key cryptosystem RSA is based on the assumption that classical computers cannot factor big integers fast. On the other hand a quantum computer would be able to break the RSA system relatively easy. A number of quantum algorithms have been proposed since 1994, like Grover’s algorithm for database search, quantum cryptography and quantum teleportation. Unfortunately, current technology makes it impossible to build large scale quantum computers to run these algorithms. This is a great roadblock for those who want to test their algorithms or those who want to write new quantum algorithms. Therefore, the only way to test quantum algorithms is by simulating them on classical computers. However, the exponential state explosion makes quantum simulation a difficult task for classical computers. In this thesis we describe how Binary/Algebraic Decision Diagrams (BDDs, ADDs) can be used to simulate quantum circuits, and especially Shor’s algorithm. i Acknowledgements I would like to thank, my supervisor, Prof. Vasilis Samoladas, for introducing me to the subject of quantum computing and providing me with many constructive conversations.
