Rapid progress in the physical implementation of quantum computers gave birth to multiple recent machines implemented with superconducting technology. In these NISQ machines, each qubit is physically connected a bounded number neighbors. This limitation prevents most programs from being directly executed on devices. A compiler required for converting program hardware-compliant circuit, particular, making two-qubit gate executable by mapping two logical qubits link between them. To solve this...

We present experimental evidence of single-event upsets in 28 and 45 nm CMOS SRAMs produced by single energetic electrons. Upsets are observed within 10% nominal supply voltage for devices built the technology node. Simulation results provide supporting that electrons generated incident X-rays.

Nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation (NGQC) has attracted a lot of attention for noise-resilient control. However, previous implementations NGQC require long evolution paths that make them more vulnerable to incoherent errors than their dynamical counterparts. In this work, we experimentally realize universal short-path nonadiabatic gate set (SP NGQC) with 2-times shorter path on superconducting processor. Characterizing both process tomography and randomized benchmarking methods,...

Quantum computers can solve problems that are intractable using the most powerful classical computer. However, qubits fickle and error prone. It is necessary to actively correct errors in execution of a quantum circuit. correction (QEC) codes developed enable fault-tolerant computing. With QEC, one logical circuit converted into an encoded

The vulnerability of deep neural networks (DNNs) to input perturbations has posed a significant challenge. Recent work on robustness verification DNNs not only lacks scalability but also requires severe restrictions the architecture (layers, activation functions, etc.). To address these limitations, we propose novel framework, SORA, for scalable blackbox reachability analysis DNNs. SORA can broad class network structures, including those with very layers and huge number neurons nonlinear...

A critical feature in today's quantum circuit is that they have permutable two-qubit operators. The flexibility ordering the gates leads to more compiler optimization opportunities. However, it also imposes significant challenges due additional degree of freedom. Our Contributions are two-fold. We first propose a general methodology can find structured solutions for scalable hardware. It breaks down complex compilation problem into two sub-problems be solved at small scale.

Data-intensive applications involving irregular memory streams are inefficiently handled by modern processors and systems highly optimized for regular, contiguous data. Recent work tackles these inefficiencies in hardware through core-side stream extensions or memory-side prefetchers accelerators, but fails to provide end-to-end solutions which also achieve high efficiency on-chip interconnects. We propose AXI-Pack, an extension ARM's AXI4 protocol introducing bandwidth-efficient strided...

In this paper, we present a new algorithm for generic combinatorial optimization, which term quantum dueling. Traditionally, potential solutions to the given optimization problems were encoded in ``register'' of qubits. Various techniques are used increase probability finding best solution upon measurement. Quantum dueling innovates by integrating an additional qubit register, effectively creating ``dueling'' scenario where two sets compete. This dual-register setup allows dynamic...
