Accelerator Circuits for Quantum Simulation

Although a quantum computer is the future of computing, its practical implementation is still far off. Programming a quantum computer is also difficult. Thus, using a quantum computer simulator is a way to learn how to use a quantum computer. QCL is one of the quantum computer simulators. It can simulate the quantum environment and execute quantum computer programs. However, the quantum computer simulator has limited storage due to its data structure that simulates quantum bits. It takes long time to simulate a large number of quantum bits. This work proposes an accelerator of quantum simulator which is implemented in hardware circuits with Field Programmable Gate Array technology.
