Visualizing or interacting with a quantum processor

Abstract:

Techniques and a system for visualization or interaction with a quantum processor are provided. In one example, a system includes a quantum programming component and a visualization component. The quantum programming component manages a quantum programming process to generate topology data for a quantum processor that is indicative of a physical topology of a set of qubits associated with the quantum processor. The visualization component generates visualization data for the topology data that comprises a set of planar slice elements arranged to correspond to the physical topology of the set of qubits. The set of planar slice elements indicate one or more operations performed at a time step associated with the quantum programming process.
