Quantum Computing Platforms: Assessing the Impact on Quality Attributes and SDLC Activities
摘要：
实用的量子计算正在迅速成为现实。为了利用量子计算机在软件应用中的真正潜力，需要从软件工程（SE）的角度深入了解量子计算平台（QCP）的所有这些特性。对复制、删除、量子比特状态传输的限制，以及对量子算法的严格依赖，这些都是QCP特征中对构建量子软件有重要意义的例子。因此，开发量子软件需要软件工程师思维的范式转变。本文介绍了从SE的角度来看，从国家的最先进的QCP的深入研究，今天可用的主要结果。我们提出的主要贡献包括：i）提出了一个通用架构的QCP，ii）提出了一个编程模型，开发量子软件，iii）确定架构上的显着特点的QCP，和\textbf{iv)}确定这些特点的影响，对各种质量属性（QA）和软件开发生存周期（SDLC）的活动。我们表明，QCP的性质，使他们有用的主要是在专门的应用领域，如科学计算。除了性能和可伸缩性，大多数其他QA（例如，可维护性、可测试性和可靠性）受到QCP不同特性的不利影响。
英文摘要：
Practical quantum computing is rapidly becoming a reality. To harness quantum computers' real potential in software applications, one needs to have an in-depth understanding of all such characteristics of quantum computing platforms (QCPs), relevant from the Software Engineering (SE) perspective. Restrictions on copying, deletion, the transmission of qubit states, a hard dependency on quantum algorithms are few, out of many, examples of QCP characteristics that have significant implications for building quantum software. Thus, developing quantum software requires a paradigm shift in thinking by software engineers. This paper presents the key findings from the SE perspective, resulting from an in-depth examination of state-of-the-art QCPs available today. The main contributions that we present include i) Proposing a general architecture of the QCPs, ii) Proposing a programming model for developing quantum software, iii) Determining architecturally significant characteristics of QCPs, and \textbf{iv)} Determining the impact of these characteristics on various Quality Attributes (QAs) and Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) activities. We show that the nature of QCPs makes them useful mainly in specialized application areas such as scientific computing. Except for performance and scalability, most of the other QAs (e.g., maintainability, testability, and reliability) are adversely affected by different characteristics of a QCP.
