How to program the D-Wave Quantum Annealing Computer?

Omar Shehab

2:30-4:00 pm, Tuesday, 9 September 2014, ITE 325B

In this tutorial session, we will give a gentle introduction to the programming model of the D-Wave Quantum Annealing Computer. The implementations of a number of programs will be demonstrated. Mapping of generic problems, minor embedding of problem Ising graphs, classical computational complexity of problem mapping and different system parameters will be discussed in details. We will also discuss how to enhance the success probability of finding a solution.

Omar Shehab is a PhD student of the department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering working under the direction of Professor Samuel Lomonaco. Omar’s research areas of interest are quantum Hamiltonian complexity and quantum cryptography.
