Execution on IBM Hardware¶

The Classiq executor supports execution on IBM simulators and hardware. For detailed information, visit: https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/.

Usage¶

Execution on IBM Simulators¶

Textual ModelSDKIDE

{
    "backend_preferences": {
        "backend_service_provider": "IBM Quantum",
        "backend_name": "Name of requsted simulator",
    }
}

from classiq.execution import IBMBackendPreferences

preferences = IBMBackendPreferences(backend_name="Name of requsted quantum simulator")

Supported Simulators¶

Any Aer simulator, including: "aer_simulator", "aer_simulator_statevector", "aer_simulator_density_matrix", "aer_simulator_matrix_product_state"
Fake hardware simulators

Execution on IBM Hardware¶

Execution on IBM hardware requires a valid IBM Quantum API access token, and access to the requested hardware with an IBM Quantum hub, group, and project name.

Textual ModelSDKIDE

{
    "backend_preferences": {
        "backend_service_provider": "IBM Quantum",
        "backend_name": "Name of requsted quantum hardware",
        "access_token": "A Valid API access token to IBM Quantum",
        "provider": {
            "hub": "Hub name",
            "group": "Group name",
            "project": "Project name",
        }
    }
}

from classiq.execution import (
    IBMBackendPreferences,
    IBMBackendProvider,
)

ibm_provider = IBMBackendProvider(
    hub="Hub name", group="Group name", Project="Project name"
)
preferences = IBMBackendPreferences(
    backend_name="Name of requsted quantum hardware",
    access_token="A Valid API access token to IBM Quantum",
    provider=ibm_provider,
