Who it's for

Hardware-adjacent developers and researchers working closer to experiments, pulse schedules, or lab orchestration.

What you can build or learn

  • See how low-level control stacks differ from higher-level SDKs.
  • Understand where pulse sequencing and experiment orchestration fit in the stack.
  • Learn which projects matter when hardware control is part of the workflow.

QImp

QImp is the experimental implementation of an interpreter for the quantum programming language Qumin. For more info, check out the (still under-construction) tutorial over at my github page!

Installing and running programs in Qumin:

Qumin is written in Python 3, so the latest version of the Python 3 interpreter must be installed in your computer. It also has the following dependencies:

  • Parsimonious
  • NumPy
  • SciPy which can be installed via tools like pip.

Running programs is done by executing the run() function of mini.py with the name of the file that contains the classical fragment of your program as the argument.
