Design Automation Of Quantum Computers

This book provides readers with a comprehensive, state-of-the-art reference to the design automation aspects of quantum computers.  Given roadmaps calling for quantum computers with 2000 qubits in a few years, readers will benefit from the practical implementation aspects covered in this book. The authors discuss real hardware to the extent possible.

• Provides an up-to-date, single-source reference to design automation aspects of quantum computers;
• Presentation is not just theoretical, but substantiated with real quantum hardware;
• Covers multi-faceted aspects of quantum computers, providing readers with valuable information, no matter the direction in which technology moves.

Rasit Topaloglu obtained his B.S. in EE from Bogazici University and Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from University of California at San Diego. He has worked for companies such as Qualcomm, AMD, GLOBALFOUNDRIES and has been with IBM for over a decade. As of 2022, he works on next-generation computer design as a Senior Hardware Developer.
