A practical framework to utilize quantum search
Shigeru Yamashita, Masaki Nakanishi · 2007
In this paper we propose a practical framework to utilize quantum computers in the future. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper to show a concrete usage of quantum computation in general programming. In our framework, we can utilize a quantum computer as a coprocessor to speed-up some parts of a program that runs on a classical computer. To do so, we propose several new ideas and techniques, such as a practical method to design a large quantum circuits for search problems and an efficient quantum comparator.
