Notable Changes

Improved BQSKit Runtime

The BQSKit Runtime has been improved for greater robustness, ease of use, and new features. Object and path imports are now managed between the system, allowing users to write one file with custom gate and pass definitions and compilations. Previously, definitions had to be separated.

For more info see #237.

Initial Distributed Quantum Support

You can now describe remote edges in the CouplingGraph object to accommodate distributed quantum computing (DQC) machine models. It allows custom edge weights on the graph to signify remote connections. Additionally, several DQC utility functions are provided for the CouplingGraph.

Mid-Circuit Measurement and Reset Support

Support for mid-circuit measurements and reset operations have been added to BQSKit. QASM files containing these operations can now be read and written. Partitioning workflows will intelligently work around these non-unitary operations.

Notable Changes

Replaced Dask with the new BQSKit Runtime

Previously, we used the Dask library to parallelize and distribute our
compilation pipeline across a multi-core system or a cluster of computers.
However, we had many problems and complaints with this, specifically, with
the robustness of it. Long-running compilation tasks would occasionally
crash with a CancelledError for one of many reasons. We ended up building
our runtime for our compile time. For most users, this change will
happen in the background, leading to slightly faster compile times and
confidence in long-running or distributed jobs. The documentation is updated
with a guide for launching a runtime on a cluster of nodes if you decide
to parallelize your workload over a compute cluster or supercomputer.

Greatly improved Qudit Support

With the help of algorithm and hardware scientists, we greatly expanded
support for qudit simulation, compilation, and information science within
the BQSKit framework. Most notably, we added several new gates and support
for qudit compilation in the off-the-shelf compile function.

State and Multi-State Synthesis Support

Added support for StateVector and StateSystem inputs to the
bqskit.compile` function now allows state preparation circuit synthesis
and state mapping synthesis. See the paper
for more info on multi-state synthesis.

Optimization level 4 with Permutation-Aware Synthesis and Mapping

Added permutation-aware synthesis and mapping passes, which serve as the
base for the optimization level 4 workflow. See the
paper for more info.

New Features

• Added Barrier Support
• Added with_mappingflag to the compile function to optionally return the
  initial and final logical-to-physical qudit mapping
• Added the Workflow class
• Added the PassData class
• Added the GateSet class
• Added the StateSystem class
• Added Sequence support for inputs the compile function. Now you can pass
  a list of circuits (or any input) to be compiled, which will all be compiled in
  parallel.
• Qfactor support for qudits
• disable_logging function
• Implemented the compute_su_generators math function

• Improved performance of active_qudit calculation
• ForEachBlockPass replace filter option can now be a string that describes the filter
• Layer generator selection in QSearch and LEAP now reacts to seeds in PassData
• SeedLayerGenerator has been significantly improved
• MachineModel.is_compatible now takes an optional placement parameter
• ControlledGate is now significantly more general and can handle qudit and even mixed qudit controls and targets.
• Many gates now take an optional radix parameter that can be set to generalize them to higher dimensions
• FillSingleQuditGatesPass no longer uses unnecessary instantiation

Fixed

• Fixed bug when popping an idle qudit

Deprecated

• Honeywell QPU gate sets and Models (replaced with Quantinuum)
• enable_dashboard and disable_dashboard (dask no longer works)

  all been replaced with the PassData version.
• BassPass.in_parallel and BassPass.execute (in_parallel is no longer necessary and execute has been replaced with await get_runtime().map(...))
• The direct use of a CompilationTask has been deprecated and is no longer needed.
  Instead, you can pass the circuit and workflow directly into Compiler.compile and similar functions.
• multistart_gen in Circuit.instantiate (been moved directly to the Instantiater.instantiate)
