Quantum Mini-Apps
This repository contains a framework for developing and benchmarking Quantum Mini-Apps, which are small, self-contained applications designed to evaluate the performance of quantum computing systems and algorithms.
Overview
The Quantum Mini-Apps framework provides a modular and extensible architecture for defining and executing quantum computing motifs, which are fundamental building blocks or patterns of quantum algorithms. The framework leverages the power of Qiskit for quantum circuit simulation and Dask for parallel and distributed execution.
The main components of the framework are:
Mini-Apps: Mini-Apps are high-level applications that combine one or more motifs to perform a specific quantum computing task or benchmark. A motif captures reoccuring executing patterns. For example, the Circuit Execution mini-app executes a quantum circuit on a quantum simulator or hardware backend.
Executor: The executor component manages the execution of motifs on different computing environments, such as local machines, clusters, or cloud resources. It supports different execution backends, including Dask and Ray.
Architecture

Getting Started
To get started with the Quantum Mini-Apps framework, follow these steps:
Clone the repository:
commandline git clone https://github.com/radical-cybertools/quantum-mini-apps.gitInstall the required dependencies and framework defined in
pyproject.tomlin Conda/Python env:cd quantum-mini-apps pip install --update .Set PYTHONPATH for easier debugging:
export PYTHONPATH=$PWD/src:$PYTHONPATH # Add this statement to shell startup script (like .bashrc)
- Run an Mini-App:
commandline
python src/mini_apps/quantum_simulation/circuit_execution/ce_local.py
This will execute the QuantumSimulation Mini-App with the default configuration, which runs a circuit execution motif on a local Dask cluster.
Extending the Mini-App framework
Contributions to the Quantum Mini-Apps framework are welcome! If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvements, please open an issue or submit a pull request.
